इत्येष वृत्रमाश्रित्य ज्वरस्य महतो मया । विस्तर: कथित: पुत्र किमन्यत् प्रब्रवीमि ते
ity eṣa vṛtram āśritya jvarasya mahato mayā | vistaraḥ kathitaḥ putra kim anyat prabravīmi te ||
ភីṣ្មៈបាននិយាយថា៖ «កូនអើយ ដោយយកព្រឹត្តិការណ៍វធនៃវ្រឹត្រាជាឱកាស ខ្ញុំបានពណ៌នាឲ្យអ្នកស្តាប់យ៉ាងលម្អិតអំពីជ្វរដ៏មហិមា ដែលពាក់ព័ន្ធនឹងព្រះមហេśវរ—ទាំងកំណើត និងដំណើររបស់វា។ ឥឡូវនេះ ខ្ញុំនឹងនិយាយអ្វីទៀតដល់អ្នក?»
भीष्म उवाच
The verse functions as a formal closure: Bhīṣma signals that the instructive narrative—using the Vṛtra episode as a frame—has been fully explained. Ethically, it models disciplined teaching: speak comprehensively when needed, then stop rather than embellish beyond purpose.
Bhīṣma concludes a detailed account about the rise/manifestation of the great Māheśvara Jvara, introduced in connection with the Vṛtra episode, and tells the listener (addressed as ‘son’) that nothing further remains to be added.
