(III)--a king of yore; his wife शैव्या, a woman of piety; both worshipped जनार्धन; after fasting on the कार्त्तिक full moon day and bath in the भागीरथी, they met a heretic, a friend of the king's military preceptor; he talk- ed to him but she looked at the sun; soon the king died and she ascended the funeral pyre; for the sin of talking to a heretic he was born as a dog in विदिश and his wife as a daughter of the king of काशी; she had a knowledge of her former birth and accepted the dog for her husband; when the dog remem- bered his former condition, he fell dead in a forest and was born as a jackal in the कोलाहल hill; the daughter of the king of काशी repaired to the mountain when he remembered his previous birth and was born as a wolf; again the daughter of the king of काशी met him; remembering his former state he was born as a vulture, crow and a peacock; when she bathed him during the sacrificial bath of Janaka he was born as the son of Janaka. Then a svayamvara was held, she married him, lived as his queen and attained heaven. See शैव्या. Vi. III. १८. ५३-95.
