satāṃ sakāśe tu vṛtaḥ prapātas te saṅgatā guṇavantastu sarve
śakrācca labdho hi varo mayaiṣa patiṣyatā bhūmitalaṃ narendra //
Yayâti.—“Losing my virtue, and consequently falling from the heaven, I have come here. I shall, after telling you all my experience of the heaven, go to the hell on earth, whilst all of you and these Brâhmaṇas will go to heaven. It is through the clemency of Indra that I have had the pleasure of meeting you good men, the lofty and the learned folks of this region."—6-7.
