Thinking ‘Nay, she has been sent by Indra to disturb my penance!�; he cursed her, and she became an elephant cow () [sā śaptā prāpa 첹tā�]. Then the sage, realizing that she was innocent, straightway said to her: ‘Fair elephant cow, when from drinking the seed of the hermit Sāmagāyana a son shall be born to you, then your curse shall come to an end. [...]�.�.
