Proto-Sini/The King and the God

From KneeQuickie

English

Once there was a king. He was childless. The king wanted a son. He asked his priest: "May a son be born to me!" The priest said to the king: "Pray to the god Varuna." The king approached the god Varuna to pray now to the god. "Hear me, father Varuna!" The god Varuna came down from heaven. "What do you want?" "I want a son." "Let this be so", said the bright god Varuna. The king's lady bore a son.
