2.2.8

pitari svargate tau ca bhrātarau tīrṇaśaiśavau /
vidyāprāptyai prayayatuḥ puraṃ pāṭaliputrakam //

Story of Śridatta and Mrigánkavati:—Once on a time there lived in the country of Málava a Bráhman named Yajnasoma. And that good man had two sons born to him, beloved by men. One of them was known as Kálanemi and the second was named Vigatabhaya. Now, when their father had gone to heaven, those two brothers, having passed through the age of childhood, went to the city of Pátaliputra to acquire learning. And when they had completed their studies, their teacher Devaśarman gave them his own two daughters, like another couple of sciences incarnate in bodily form.
