Sauti said: Then the bird, capable of going every where at will and of calling all energy at will, placing his brother Aruna on his back, went from his father's house to that of his mother, (which was situated) on the other side of the ocean. He placed in the East Aruna of great splendour when the sun determined to burn the world with its fearful rays.
सौतिरुवाच ततः कामगम: पक्षी कामवीर्यो विहंगमः। अरुणं चात्मनः पृष्ठमारोप्य स पितुर्ग्रहात्॥ मातुरन्तिकमागच्छत्परं तीरं महोदधेः। तत्रारुणश्च निक्षिप्तो दिशं पूर्वां महाद्युतिः॥ सूर्यस्तेजोभिरत्युप्रैर्लोकान्दग्धुमना यदा।
