After an Ekadashi fast Nanda bathes in the Yamuna in the dark of night; a servant of Varuna seizes him and brings him to Varuna. Krishna goes there. Varuna honours him, says the purpose of his life is fulfilled by the sight, asks forgiveness for his foolish servant and gives Nanda back. The cowherds, hearing of it, take Krishna for the Lord.
