*śaunaka uvāca
athāṣṭakaḥ punarevānvapṛcchan mātāmahaṃ kautukādindrakalpam
pṛcchāmi tvāṃ nṛpate brūhi satyaṃ kutaśca kaścāsi kathaṃ tvamāgāḥ
kṛtaṃ tvayā yaddhi na tasya kartā loke tvadanyo brāhmaṇaḥ kṣatriyo vā //

Śaunaka.—Aṣṭaka again asked his maternal grandfather, who was like Indra, through curiosity, to tell him who he was, how and whence he went there, because there was no other Brâhmaṇa or Kṣatriya who had pursued high actions like him.—21.
