Adhyaya 77 — Sanjna’s Withdrawal from Surya: The Birth of Yama and Yamuna, and the Emergence of Chhaya
ततः शशाप तं कोपाच्छायासंज्ञा यमं द्विज ।
किञ्चित् प्रस्फुरमाणौष्ठी विचलत्पाणिपल्लवा ॥
tataḥ śaśāpa taṃ kopāc chāyāsaṃjñā yamaṃ dvija /
kiñcit prasphuramāṇauṣṭhī vicalat-pāṇi-pallavā
अथ द्विज, छाया संज्ञारूपा क्रुद्धा यमं शशाप; ओष्ठौ स्फुरन्तौ, करौ कम्पमानौ।

Vaṃśānucarita: narrative causality in a genealogical account.
The bodily tremors depict rajas overpowering sattva; the curse represents the creative potency of vāk when divorced from dharma.
