13) \*Garuḍa's conceit laid low.\* A very beautiful daughter, Guṇakeśī, was born to Mātali, the charioteer of Indra. In the course of his search for a suitable husband for Guṇakeśī he came to Pātālaloka in the company of Nārada, and there Mātali selected a noble nāga called Sumukha as his prospective son-in-law. But a month before Garuḍa had eaten Sumukha's father Cikara, and he had also given notice to Sumukha that within a month's time he too would be eaten.
