She (Pritha) was appointed as her (adoptive) father's house to look after the hospitality to the Brahmanas and guests. One day by careful attentions she gratified the terrible Brahmana of rigid vows, known by the name of Durvasa, learned in the mystery of religion.
सा नियुक्ता पितुर्गेह देवतातिथिपूजने। उग्रं पर्यचरत् तत्र ब्राह्मणं संशितव्रतम्॥ निगूढनिश्चयं धर्मे यं तं दुर्वाससं विदुः। तमुग्रं संशितात्मानं सर्वयत्नैरतोषयत्॥
