The Rakshasi Said O Brihadratha, this is your son. It is given to you by me. Take it. It is born in the wombs of your two wives in consequence of the boon granted to you by the Brahmana. It was abandoned by the midwives, but it was protected by me.
राक्षस्युवाच बृहद्रथ सुतस्तेऽयं मया दत्तः प्रगृह्यताम्। तव पत्नीद्वये जातो द्विजातिवरशासनात्। धात्रीजनपरित्यक्तो मयायं परिरक्षितः॥
