Translation
Another example: Bahulāśva, seeing Kṛṣṇa, fell to the ground, thinking he would offer respects a hundred times, but being agitated by joy, he forgot to rise up.
Purport (Nectar of Devotion)
When Bahulāśva, the King of Mithilā, saw Kṛṣṇa at his palace, he decided to offer his respects by bowing down before Him at least a hundred times, but he was so overcome by feelings of love that after bowing down only once, he forgot his position and could not rise again.
