prāha vācaspatiṃ dīnaḥ pīḍito 'smi rajeḥ sutaiḥ //

The other valiant sons of Raji forcibly dethroned Indra and usurped all the kingdom and share of sacrifices from him. Indra thus bereft of his position went and laid himself at the mercy of Bṛihaspati. He said to Bṛihaspati that he had been deprived of his realm as well as of the right of a share in sacrifices and appealed to him to advise him to get back his kingdom.—43-44.
