“In Jambudvīpa, at dawn, King Sureśvara­prabha saw that these signs had occurred, and he asked his astrologers and prime ministers, ‘Why did these signs appear last night?’

“They answered, ‘Your Majesty should know this: a rain of forty thousand pearl necklaces and also a rain of divine coral tree flowers fell in the home of Jalavāhana, the head merchant’s son.’

“King Sureśvara­prabha said to his ministers, ‘You go and summon Jalavāhana, the head merchant’s son, with pleasant words.’

“Then the astrologers and prime ministers went to the home of Jalavāhana, the head merchant’s son, and having arrived they said to Jalavāhana, the head merchant’s son, ‘King Sureśvara­prabha is summoning you.’

“Then Jalavāhana, the head merchant’s son, went with the prime ministers to King Sureśvara­prabha.

“King Sureśvara­prabha said to him, ‘Jalavāhana, such kinds of signs appeared last night. Do you know why there were those signs?’

“Then Jalavāhana, the head merchant’s son, said to King Sureśvara­prabha, ‘Your Majesty, I know that the time of death definitely came for those ten thousand fish.’

“The king asked, ‘How do you know that, Jalavāhana?’

“ ‘Your Majesty,’ said Jalavāhana, ‘I will send Jalāmbara to that lake to see whether those ten thousand fish are dead or alive.’

“ ‘Do that!’ commanded the king.

“Then Jalavāhana, the head merchant’s son, said to his son Jalāmbara, ‘Son, go to see whether the ten thousand fish in the lake in the empty wilderness have died or not.’

“Then the son, Jalāmbara, went as quickly as he could to that great lake in the empty wilderness and saw that the time of death had come for those ten thousand fish and that a great rain of coral tree flowers had fallen there.
