abhūn nepālaviṣaye nāmnā śivapuraṃ puram /
yathārthanāmā tatrāsīd yaśaḥketuḥ purā nṛpaḥ //
Story of the magic globule.:— There was in the kingdom of Nepála a city named Śivapura, and in it there lived of old time a king rightly named Yaśahketu. He devolved upon his minister, named Prajnáságara, the harden of his kingdom, and enjoyed himself in the society of his queen Chandraprabhá. And in course of time that king had born to him, by that queen, a daughter named Śaśiprábha, bright as the moon, the eye of the world.
