The King Ila entering the Śaravaṇa, without knowing the will of Śiva and Pârvatî, was instantly transformed into a woman, and his horse was also transformed into a mare. The king, thus deprived of manhood, was very much amazed to find himself in the form of a woman. He was named Ilâ and had breasts like women. His thighs became stouter and his face became like the moon—which made him look more enchanting in that female form. Who would not be enamoured by the glances of such a beautiful form? His arms were long, his black tresses of hair were kissing his feet, there were no hair on his body, his teeth were well-shaped, and his voice was exquisitely sonorous.—47-50.
