Vaiśampāyana said: Then that hero, now cleansed of sin, O King, wandered through the Draviḍa lands and reached the sea-shore, a sacred place renowned for the merit it bestows upon the world. After bathing and performing the proper observances there, the valiant son of Pāṇḍu went on and beheld the supremely pure Agastya-tīrtha, and also the various holy fords known as the Nārī-tīrthas, O Janamejaya.
