Later [in the Eighth Canto of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam] I shall describe how Urukrama, Lord Vāmanadeva, appeared as the son of the great sage Kaśyapa and how He covered the three worlds with three steps. I shall describe the uncommon activities He performed, His qualities, His power and how He took birth from the womb of Aditi.

I shall later describe how Vāmana appeared as Kaśyapa's son and covered the three worlds with three steps. The story is given a forward reference; expect more.
