51Sura's son came to Nanda's camp, and finding the cowherds there fast asleep, he laid his son on Yasoda's bed, took up her daughter, and went back to his own house. 52Then Vasudeva set the little girl down on Devaki's bed, put the iron back on his feet, and stayed shut in as before. 53And Yasoda, Nanda's wife, knew only that a child had been born; worn out, her memory gone with sleep, she did not know its sex.
