yasmācca bhaktyā dharaṇīsutasya vinindyamānena gavādidānam
ālokitaṃ tena surārigarbhe sambhūtireṣā tava daitya jātā //
“O Prince! You looked with faith at the ceremony of giving away the cows, &c., in charity, at the conclusion of the vrata performed in honour of Mars, the son of Earth, by a low-born despicable Śudra, and consequently you have been given such a handsome form and are born in the royal family of Daityas.”—23.
