Translation
Also related are the histories of Ilā and Tārā, and the description of the descendants of the sun-god, including such kings as Śaśāda and Nṛga.
The histories of Ila and Tara, the sun-dynasty including Sasada and Nrga, are related. Sometimes the smallest stories preserve the dignity of the line. Even brief mentions matter.
