The Sages Daughter

Once upon a time there lived a sage onthe banks of a river. He and his wife did

not have any children. One day when thesage was praying in the middle of the

river, an eagle happened to pass by andthe eagle dropped a female mouse in the

hands of the sage. The sage found themouse in his hands on opening his eyes,and took it home to his wife.

On reaching home, he talked to his wifeabout the mouse and they decided toconvert the mouse into a young baby

girl. The sage and his wife began to takecare of the girl child and brought her up

as their daughter. The child grew day by

day to a beautiful maiden by the age ofsixteen. At this age, the sage decided tofind a match for the girl. He and his wifedecided that the Sun God would be anideal match for their girl.

So the sage prayed for the Sun God toappear, and once the sun god appeared

asked him to marry his daughter. But hisdaughter said, "Sorry! I cannot marry

the sun god because he is very intenseand I will be reduced to ashes in his heat

and light.". The sage was displeased andasked the sun god to suggest a possiblegroom. The sun god suggested the nameof the Lord of the clouds. For, the cloudcan easily stop the rays of the sun.

The sage then prayed for the lord of the

clouds and once he appeared him tookhim to his daughter. The daughter once

again decided not accept him as hisgroom. She said, " I do not want tomarry a person as dark as him.

Moreover, I am afraid of the thunder heproduces". The sage was dejected onceagain and asked the lord of clouds for asuitable groom. The lord of cloudssuggested, " Why don't you try the lord

of wind, for he can easily blow meaway".

The sage then prayed for the lord of thewind. On the appearance of the wind-god, he took him to his daughter. Hisdaughter rejected the groom saying thatshe cannot marry such a feeble person

like the wind god who is always on the

move. Dejected once again the sageasked the wind-god for a suggestion.The wind-god suggested the lord of themountain which was rock solid andstopped the wind easily. So the sagethen went to the mountain lord andrequested him to marry his daughter.But the daughter once again rejected themountain lord saying that he was too

cold-hearted for her to marry andrequested the sage to find somebody

softer. The mountain god then suggested

a mouse to him, because the mouse issoft and yet can easily make holes in themountain.

This time the daughter was happy andagreed to marrying a he-mouse. So thesage said, "Look at what the destiny hadto offer you. You started as a mouse,

and were destined to marry a mouse inthe end. So be it". He then converted her

back to a she-mouse and got hermarried to a he-mouse.
