yatkṛtaṃ krūrakarmāpi śrāddharūpeṇa taistadā
tena te bhavane jātā vyādhānāṃ krūrakarmiṇām //

In process of time they were all gathered to their fathers and were re-born in the house of a hunter; but as they performed the śrâddha with great devotion they had a recollection of their previous life through the glory of the Pitṛis They were however born in the family of a hunter on account of their having committed a cruel deed; but as they had a recollection of their previous life, they in a fit of asceticism spurned at all mundane luxuries and put an end to their existence by fasting.—12-14.
