⁴ Lg i, 65, 17–31 combines the first and second forms. Kūr i, 20, 4–10 combines all three. Ag 272, 5–10 aud Gar i, 138, 2–3 condense the story. Rām vii, 87 to 90 follows the first form but confusedly; and says Ila was king of Bālhi (87, 3; 90, 18) or Bālhika (87, 7). MBh says (i, 75, 3140–4; 95, 3760) Manu’s daughter was Ilā and her son was Purūravas, she being both his mother and his father. Cf. Br 226, 34.
