विनतानन्दन गरुड सहसा राजाको वहाँसे ऊपर उठाकर तुरंत आकाशमें ले उड़े और वहीं इन्हें छोड़ दिया ।। अस्मिन् मुहूर्ते संजज्ञे राजोपरिचर: पुन: । सशरीरो गतश्चैव ब्रद्मलोकं नृपोत्तम:,उसी क्षण राजा वसु पुनः उपरिचर हो गये। फिर वे नृपश्रेष्ठ सशरीर ब्रह्मलोकमें चले गये
Translation
Garuda, Vinatā’s son, suddenly lifted the king from that place and at once bore him through the sky, leaving him there. In that very moment King Vasu again became Upacara; and that foremost of rulers, with his body intact, went to Brahmaloka.
