अश्वमेधामृतरसस्त्वाश्रमस्थानसंश्रय: । मौसल: श्रुतिसंक्षेप: शिष्टद्धिजनिषेवित:,अश्वमेधपर्व इसका अमृतमय रस है और आश्रम-वासिकपर्व आश्रय लेकर बैठनेका स्थान। मौसलपर्व श्रुति-रूपा ऊँची-ऊँची शाखाओंका अन्तिम भाग है तथा सदाचार एवं विद्यासे सम्पन्न द्विजाति इसका सेवन करते हैं
The Aśvamedha-parva is its ambrosial essence; the Āśrama-vāsika-parva is its sheltering seat and place of refuge. The Mausala-parva is like a compendium of śruti, the final crest of the lofty branches; and it is savored by the dvija, perfected in right conduct and learning.
