Vasiṣṭhāpavāha: Sarasvatī’s Diversion and Viśvāmitra’s Curse (वसिष्ठापवाहः)
ऋषि: प्रसन्नस्तस्याभूत् संरम्भं च विहाय सः । मोक्षार्थ तस्य राज्यस्य जुहाव पुनराहुतिम्
ṛṣiḥ prasannastasyābhūt saṃrambhaṃ ca vihāya saḥ | mokṣārthaṃ tasya rājyasya juhāva punarāhutim ||
Vaiśampāyana dit : Le sage fut satisfait de lui ; renonçant à toute agitation et à toute colère, il offrit de nouveau une oblation, en quête de la délivrance de ce roi et de son royaume.

Educational Q&A
Spiritual benefit (mokṣa) is best pursued through serenity and restraint: the sage first abandons saṃrambha (heated anger/agitation) and then acts for the higher good through a deliberate, purifying rite.
The narrator states that a sage, now pleased, gives up his earlier agitation and performs another fire-offering (āhuti), explicitly intending liberation connected with a king and his kingdom.
