Ah, so finally we have an answer to Vethala's last question!

(In Indian mythology, the demon Vethala asks the wise king Vikramaditya several riddles. He answers all but one correctly. The one he cannot answer is this - if a widow and her daughter marry a youth and his widowed father respectively, and each couple has a child, what is the relation between the children?)
