cause. This king, O founder of the family that goes by your name becomes divested of the very order of his birth, on account of my might! Dismissed by the Rishi Bhrigu, king Pratarddana then left that hermitage, and went to the place he had come from, having, in the way I have described, voinited forth the poison of specch even as a snake vomits forth its real poison. Meanwhile, king Vitahavya, acquired the dignity of the twice born sage by virtue of the worth only of Bhrigu.
त्याजितो हि मया जातिमेष राजा भृगूद्वह। ततस्तेनाभ्यनुज्ञातो ययौ राजा प्रतर्दनः॥ यथागतं महाराज मुक्त्वा विषमिवोरगः। भृगोर्वचनमात्रेण स च ब्रह्मर्षितां गतः॥
