Then, again, Asita and Devala, and Narada and Paravata, and Kakshivat, and Jamadagni's son Rama, and Tandya possessed of purified soul, and Vashishtha, and Jamadagni, and Vishvamitra, and Atri, and Bharadvaja, and Harishmashru, and Kundadhara, and Shrutashravas,-these great Rishis, by worshipping Vishnu with concentrated minds with the help of Richs, and by penances, acquired success through the grace of that great god gifted with intelligence.
असितो देवलश्चैव तथा नारदपर्वतौ। कक्षीवान् जामदग्न्यश्च रामस्ताण्ड्यस्तथाऽऽत्मवान्।। वसिष्ठो जमदग्निश्च विश्वामित्रोऽत्रिरेव च। भरद्वाजो हरिश्मश्रुः कुण्डधारः श्रुतश्रवाः॥ एते महर्षयः स्तुत्वा विष्णुमृग्भिः समाहिताः। लेभिरे तपसा सिद्धिं प्रसादात् तस्य धीमतः॥
