Then, when the greatest of the cowherd clan of Vraja, accompanied by those skilled in Vedic procedures, entered the inner chambers and sat on the altar before the lying-in chamber endowed with auspicious water-pots and other good omens, Rohiṇī, who had attained the pinnacle of her desires, took notice of it. Screening the bed of Yaśodā—who bestows fame on three families—with an inner curtain, and covering the child, she brought forth the mistress of the house. But the sisters-in-law, in order to behold the newborn child, joyfully and playfully requested something invaluable from him for their ornaments, and only after he gave his promise did they let him look upon him.
