12. Now if you should return to your husband, and do the like, you will undoubtedly be successful in your desire.
13. Lílá said:—I see within the sphere of this dome (of my mind), the Bráhman to have been my husband before; and I see also in it, that he died and became a ruler of the earth afterwards.
14. I see in it that spot of the earth, that city and that palace of his where I sat as his queen.
15. I see within myself my lord to be reigning in that place, and I see even there how he died afterwards.
16. I see herein the glory of the sovereign of so many countries on earth, and I see also the perfect frankness of his conduct through life.
17. I see the worlds in the inner sky of my mind, as they are placed in a casket, or as the oil is contained in a mustard seed.
18. I see the bright orb of my husband ever roving before me, and now I pray you to contrive any how to place me by his side.
19. The Goddess replied:—Tell me Lílá, to what husband you shall go, as there are hundreds of them that you had, and shall have in your past and future lives, and now there are three of them confined in this earth.
20. The nearest of the three, is the Bráhman who is here reduced to ashes; the next is the prince lying in state and covered with flowers in the inner apartment.
21. The third is now a reigning prince in this earth, and has been buffeting in the waves of error in the vast ocean of the world.
