O king, there came with the desire of living (in that city) numerous Brahmanas learned in all the Vedas and conversant with every language. There came also from every direction numerous merchants with the desire of earning wealth.
शुशुभे धनसम्पूर्ण धनाध्यक्षक्षयोपमम्। तत्रागच्छन् द्विजा राजन् सर्ववेदविदां वराः॥ निवासं रोचयन्ति स्म सर्वभाषाविस्तथा। वणिजश्चाययुस्तत्र नानादिग्भ्यो धनार्थिनः॥
