Then, O prince, that Brahmana, raving like a maniac, and continually scolding Marutta with rude words, again accosted him thus, I am afflicted with a brain disorder, and, I always act according to the fretful caprices of my own mind, why are you then bent upon having this sacrifice performed by a priest of such a peculiar nature; my brother is able to officiate at sacrifices, and he has gone over to Vasava (Indra), and is engaged in celebrating his sacrifices, do you therefore have your sacrifice performed by him.
ततो मरुत्तमुन्मत्तो वाचा निर्भर्त्सयन्निव। रुक्षया ब्राह्मणो राजन् पुनः पुनरथाब्रवीत्॥ वातप्रधानेन मया स्वचित्तवशवर्तिना। एवं विकृतरूपेण कथं याजितुमिच्छसि॥ भ्राता मम समर्थश्च वासवेन च संगतः। वर्तते याजने चैव तेन कर्माणि कारय॥
