When bis mind was ripe and freed from passions he concentrated in his spirit the sacramen- tal fires and became a religious mendicant. Then having made over all his aetions to the glorious god he attained to the condition of Achyuta which is above ebange, tfce vicissitudes of birth, transmigration or death. Wboever shall read, hear, reraember, or understand this story of Sauvari and his marriage with the daughters of Mándhita, shall never, for eight successive births, be addkated H> evií thoughts nor shall he act unrighteously, nor shall he thi»« of improper objects— nor shall he be subject to selfishness; shall now describe to you the progeny of Mandhata.
