“Narada Continued, ’When the muni came before that king he was received with due hospitality by the latter.  Galava, then, began to urge the monarch for begetting a child.  Thus addressed, Divodasa said, ’I heard of all this before.  Thou needest not speak much.  O Brahmana.  I may tell thee, O best of Brahmanas, that as soon as I heard of this matter, my heart was set upon it.  This also is a mark of great honour to me that passing over all other kings thou hast come to me, Without doubt, thy object will be gained.  In the matter of the steeds, O Galava, my wealth is like that of king Haryyaswa.  I shall, therefore, beget only one royal son upon this maiden.’  Hearing these words, that best of Brahmanas gave that damsel unto the king, and, the king, thereupon, duly wedded her.  And the royal sage then sported with her, as Surya with Prabhavati, Agni with Swaha, Vasava with Sachi, Chandra with Rohini, Yama with Urmila, Varuna with Gauri, Kuvera with Riddhi, Narayana with Lakshmi, Sagara with Jahnavi, Rudra with Rudrani, the Grandsire with Saraswati, Vasishtha’s son Saktri with Adrisyanti, Vasishtha with Arundhati (called also Akshamala), Chyavana with Sukanya, Pulastya with Sandhya, Agastya with the princess of Vidarbha Lopamudra, Satyavan with Savitri, Bhrigu with Puloma, Kasyapa with Aditi, Richika’s son Jamadagni with Renuka, Kusika’s son Viswamitra with Himavati, Vrihaspati with Tara, Sukra with Sataprava, Bhumipati with Bhumi, Pururavas with Urvasi, Richika with Satyavati, Manu with Saraswati, Dushyanta with Sakuntala, the eternal Dharma with Dhriti, Nala with Damayanti, Narada, with Satyavati, Jaratkaru with Jaratkaru, Pulastya with Pratichya, Urnayus with Menaka, Tumvuru with Rambha, Vasuki with Satasirsha, Dhananjaya with Kamari, Rama with the princess of Videha Sita, or Janardana with Rukmini.  And unto king Divodasa, that sporting with and taking delight in her, Madhavi bore a son named Pratardana.  And after she had borne him a son, the holy Galava came to Divodasa at the appointed time, and said unto him, ’Let the maiden come with me, and let the steeds also thou art to give me remain with thee, for I desire to go elsewhere, O ruler of Earth, for dower.’  Thus addressed, the virtuous king Divodasa, who was devoted to truth, thereupon, gave back the maiden to Galava at the appointed time.’”

SECTION CXVIII

“Narada said, ’The illustrious Madhavi, faithful to her promise, abandoning that prosperity and once more becoming a maiden, followed the footsteps of the Brahmana Galava.  And Galava, whose heart was set upon the accomplishment of his own business, reflecting upon what he should do next then went to the city of the Bhojas for waiting upon king Usinara.  And arrived before that king of unbaffled prowess, Galava addressed him, saying, ’This maiden will bear thee two royal sons.  And, O king, begetting upon her two sons equal unto the Sun and the Moon, thou mayst attain all thy objects both here and hereafter.
