Sûta said.—After a year a handsome cherub-boy shining like the twelve suns, wearing yellow raiments and resembling the Moon, was born from the womb of Târâ. He was a master of all the śâstras and was the author of a treatise on elephants. He was known as Rájputra, the doctor of elephants, and was afterwards named Budha owing to his being the son of the Moon.—1-3.
