9.44

pṛthor apīmāṃ pṛthivīṃ bhāryāṃ pūrvavido viduḥ
sthāṇucchedasya kedāram āhuḥ śālyavato mṛgam //

(Sages) who know the past call this earth (prithivi) even the wife of Prithu; they declare a field to belong to him who cleared away the timber, and a deer to him who (first) wounded it.

Georg Bühler 1886, The Laws of Manu
