33. I have now related to you, my gracious goddesses! all that I have seen and thought of, since I have been restored to my new life. 34. The goddess spake:—Now I tell thee Lílá, that hast such beautiful eyes, and movest like a swan, that I will raise the corpse of the king to life from his bed in this bier. 35. Saying so, she breathed the breath of life as the lotus lets off its fragrance; and it fled into the nostrils of the carcase, like a creeping plant crawls into a hole. 36. It entered into the heart through the vital sheath, as the wind penetrates into the hole of a bamboo; and the breath of life was fraught with desires, as the waves of the sea sparkle with pearls. 37. The infusion of life, added to the colour of the face and body of king Padma; as the rain-water refreshes the fading lotus in a drought. 38. By degrees the members of the body became renovated, like a garden with its returning flowering season; and as the sides of a hill become virescent, with fresh grown bushes and creepers. 39. The person of the king shone as the queen of the stars, with all her digits of the full moon, when she enlightens the whole world, with the beams of her radiant face. 40. All his limbs became as tender and roscid, as the branches of trees in spring; and they regained their bright and golden hue, like the flowers of the vernal season. 41. He oped his eyes which were as clear as the sky, with their two pupils rolling as the two orbs of light; and enlightening the world, with their charming and auspicious beams. 42. He raised his body, as the Vindhyá mountain uplifts its head, and cried, “who waits there” with a grave and hoarse voice. 43. The two Lílás responded to him saying:—“your commands;” when he beheld the two Lílás in attendance upon him, and lowly bending themselves at his feet. 44. Both of them were of the same form and features, and of the like demeanour and deportment towards him. They were alike to one another in their voice and action, as in their joy and gladness at his rising. 45. Then looking upon them he asked, “what art thou and who is she”? At this the elder Lílá responded to him saying—“deign to hear what I have to say”. 46. I am Lílá thy former consort, and was joined as twain in one with thee, as sounds and their senses are combined together. 47. The other Lílá is but a reflexion of myself, and cast by my free will for your service. 48. The lady sitting here beside the bed, is the goddess of wisdom—the blessed Sarasvatí, and mother of the three worlds; set her on the golden seat before you. 49. It is by virtue of our great merit, that she has presented herself to our sight, and brought us back from other worlds to your presence in this place. 50. Hearing this, the lotus-eyed king, rose from his seat, and with pendant wreaths of flowers and a strap of cloth hung about his neck, prostrated himself at her feet.
