upoṣitairnaraistasmāt snānamabhyaṅgapūrvakam.
varjanīyaṃ prayatnena rūpaghnaṃ tatparaṃ nṛpa!.. 115.14 ..

Hence, one, who observes a fast, should not rub his body with oil on that day before bathing, and if he bathes after rubbing his body with unguent, he becomes ugly in his next life.—14. This is about the previous life of the King Purûravâ of Madra. Now I shall tell you something about him, after he became the lord of Madra.—15.
