*devayānyuvāca
pāṇigraho nāhuṣāyaṃ na puṃbhiḥ sevitaḥ purā
tvaṃ pāṇimagrahīdagre vṛṇomi tvāmahaṃ tataḥ //

Devayânî said:--"O, son of Nahuṣa! this hand of mine has not been touched by any other person and you have once grasped it. I therefore choose you to be my partner in life. Who else can take my hand? You took me by the hand, because you are the son of a sage or because you are a sage yourself."--21-22.
