O perpetuator of the Kuru race, from that day the girls of the city of Mahishmati became rather unacceptable to others (as wives). Agni by his boon granted them sexual liberty. The women of that city, being not confined to a particular husband, always roamed as Sairini at will.
तस्यां पुर्यां तदा चैव माहिष्मत्यां कुरूद्वह। बभूवुरनतिग्राह्या योषितश्छन्दतः किल॥ एवमग्निर्वरं प्रादात् स्त्रीणामप्रतिवारणे। वरिण्यस्तत्र नार्यो हि यथेष्टं विचरन्त्युत॥
