Shloka 12
तत: शान्तरजो जज्ञे कृतकृत्य: स आत्मवान् । रजे: पञ्चशतान्यासन् पुत्राणाममितौजसाम् ॥ १२ ॥
tataḥ śāntarajo jajñe kṛta-kṛtyaḥ sa ātmavān rajeḥ pañca-śatāny āsan putrāṇām amitaujasām
จากจิตรกฤตได้กำเนิด ศานตราช ผู้สำเร็จหน้าที่ทั้งปวงและมั่นคงในตน; เพราะได้บำเพ็ญพิธีเวทครบถ้วนจึงมิได้มีบุตรสืบสกุล. ส่วนรชีมีโอรสห้าร้อยองค์ ล้วนทรงเดชานุภาพยิ่งนัก.
