sanskrit

'We asked, 'Do you know King Indradyumna?' The tortoise reflected for a moment, his eyes filled with tears, his heart deeply moved, trembling all over, nearly losing his senses. With joined hands, he replied, 'How could I not know him? He has planted the sacrificial stake a thousand times during the kindling of the sacrificial fire. This lake was dug by the feet of the cows that were given by the king to the Brahmanas upon the completion of his sacrifices. I have lived here ever since.'' ।। 3-191-18 ।।
