ជៃមិនី ភរទ្វាជ ជាបាលី ក្រតុ និង អង្គិរាស—ពួកនេះ និងពួកយើងផងដែរ ឱ ព្រះរាជាធិរាជ—សុទ្ធតែជាព្រហ្មឫសីដ៏បរិសុទ្ធឥតមលិន។
Deductive: A narrator addressing a king (rājendra); within Skanda Purāṇa style, likely Sūta/ṛṣi narration in a royal dialogue frame

Scene: A row of venerable sages—Jaimini, Bharadvāja, Jābāli, Kratu, Aṅgiras—stand with rosaries and kamaṇḍalus, faces tranquil; the speaker includes ‘we too, O king’ indicating a respectful address within a royal-audience setting.
