  1.17. [Śikhaṇḍin was originally a female,  being Ambā born in the family of Drupada for wreaking her revenge upon Bhīṣma
 (see Ambā). But from her very birth the girl was given out as a male child and brought up as such. In due course she was married to the daughter of Hiraṇyavarman,  who was extremely sorry to find that she had got a veritable woman for her husband. Her father,  therefore,  resolved to attack the kingdom of Drupada for his having deceived him
 but Śikhaṇḍin contrived,  by practising austere penance in a forest,  to exchange her sex with a Yakṣa and thus averted the calamity which threatened Drupada.
