śraddadhānaparo bhūtvā kuru tīrthābhiṣecanam
anye ca bahavastīrthāḥ sarvapāpaharāḥ smṛtāḥ
teṣu snātvā divaṃ yānti ye mṛtāste 'punarbhavāḥ //
You should also get yourself devoutfully sprinkled with its holy water. There are many other tîrthas, by bathing into which a man goes to heaven. Those who die there are not re-born. The Yamunâ, too, has been described to be sacred like the Ganges, but the latter is held more in veneration as the older of the two, by all classes everywhere.—31-32.
