स श्रुतर्वाणमादाय ब्रथ्नश्वमगमत् ततः । सच तौ विषयस्यान्ते प्रत्यगृह्लाद् यथाविधि,तब वे श्रुतर्वाको साथ लेकर राजा ब्रध्नश्वके पास गये। उन्होंने भी अपने राज्यकी सीमापर आकर उन दोनों सम्माननीय अतिथियोंकी अगवानी की और विधिपूर्वक उन्हें अपनाया
sa śrutarvāṇam ādāya bradhnaśvam agamat tataḥ | sa ca tau viṣayasyānte pratyagṛhlād yathāvidhi ||
