3.33

"Then the deer-girl, for the sake of obtaining fire, went according to his instruction. Not long after the girl had gone, the King of Vārāṇasī, leading ministers and hundreds of thousands of followers surrounding him before and behind, with thousands of chariots and myriads of cavalry, entered the mountain to hunt, pursuing herds of deer. The King of Vārāṇasī, riding alone upon a famous elephant, went to the northern cave where the ṛṣi was, and saw the ranks and rows of lotus flowers circumambulating the cave. At that time the great king felt joy in his heart, and exclaimed in praise: 'Excellent! Excellent! O virtuous ṛṣi! O great ṛṣi guide! How towering is your merit that such a thing occurs!'
