सरस्वतीदृषद्धत्यौ यमुनां च निषेव्य ते । ययुर्वनेनैव वनं सततं पश्चिमां दिशम्,उन्होंने क्रमशः सरस्वती, दृषद्वती और यमुना नदीका सेवन करते हुए एक वनसे दूसरे वनमें प्रवेश किया। इस प्रकार वे निरन्तर पश्चिम दिशाकी ओर बढ़ते गये

sarasvatīdṛṣadvatyau yamunāṃ ca niṣevya te | yayur vanenaiva vanaṃ satataṃ paścimāṃ diśam ||
Translation
ثم قصدوا تباعًا أنهارَ سَرَسْوَتِي ودْرِشَدْوَتِي ويَمُونَا، فاستقوا من مياهها وأقاموا على ضفافها؛ ثم مضوا عبر الغابات، ينتقلون من غابةٍ إلى غابة، ويواصلون السير بثباتٍ نحو جهة الغرب.
