While he bowed unto him the divine Sun said to Satrajit — " I wish to confer upon thee a boon ; do thou pray for it." He then wanted that jewel. The sun gave it to him and then resumed his place in the sky. Satrajit placed that precious gem round his neck and lighting up all the quarters with his radiance like the sun entered the city of Dwarka. Beholding him approach the inhabitant of Dwarka went to that excellent Purusha, without beginning, who, to carry the burden of the world, assumed a mortal form, and fcaid—" lord, forsooth, the divine sun is coming to visit you."

So let it remain ; we all defive advantage (rom its virtues. Ðut Bhalabhadra sus- pects that I have it and therefore, out of kindness to me shew it to the assembly." When Akrura, who had the jewel in his possession, was thus taxed he hesitated what he should do. He thought — " If I deny that I have the jewel, they will search my person and find the gem hidden amongst my clothes. I cannot submit myself to a searrS." Tlikiking thus Akrura said to NarSyana, the cause of the universe " It is true, Syamantaka jewel was given to my care by Satadhanwan when he left this place. I expected every day that you should ask me for it and with great inconvenience to myself I have retained it. The care of this has put me to so much anxiety that I have not been able to enjoy any pleasure or a moment's rest. Being afraid lest you miglit think, that I am unfit to keep this jewel which is the source of welfare to the kingdom I did not mention to you that it is in my possession. Now take it yourself and give its charge to any body you like." Having said this Akrura got out of his clothes a small *old box and took from it the jewel. When it was shown to the assembled Yadavas the room in which they sat, was illuminated with its radiance, "This" said Akrura " is the Syamantaka jewel which was left to my care by Satadhanwan.
