1916. Yashodā says,
“Seven months after my dear son was born,
when I had put my strong, matchless child
to sleep on a bed soft as a flower
and gone to bathe in the Yamuna river,
he killed Sakatāsuran with his divine feet
when he came as a cart that was large as a mountain.
He rests on Adisesha on the ocean
and Lakshmi stays on his faultless chest.
I am afraid of scolding him after he did such a heroic deed. ”
