abravīduśanā kāvyo devayānīṃ yadāvaham |
neyamāhvayitavyā te śayane vārṣaparvaṇī || 15 ||

"Yayati answered, 'Well do I know that honour of birth is thine, born as thou art in the proud race of the Danavas. Thou art also gifted with beauty. I do not, indeed, see even the speck of a fault in thy feature. But Usanas commanded me, while I was united with Devayani, that never should Vrishaparvan's daughter he summoned to my bed.'
