O king of kings, then going to the inaccessible Tirtha of Markandeya situated at the confluence of the Gomati and the Ganges, ever celebrated over the world, one obtains the fruits of Agnishtoma (sacrifice) and saves his race.
मार्कण्डेयस्य राजेन्द्र तीर्थमासाद्य दुर्लभम्॥ गोमतीगङ्गयोश्चैव संगमे लोकविश्रुते। अग्निष्टोममवाप्नोति कुलं चैव समुद्धरेत्॥
