śalya uvāca |
pūjitaṃ copaviṣṭaṃ tamāsane munisattamam |
paryapṛcchata deveśaḥ prahṛṣṭo brāhmaṇarṣabham || 5 ||

"Salya continued, 'Indra, well-pleased, began to question that best of saints and greatest of Brahmanas when he was seated on a seat after receiving due honours, thus, O revered saint, O best of Brahmanas, I wish to have it recited by thee how Nahusha of vicious soul was hurled from heaven.'
