Revākhaṇḍa ascribed to the Vāyupurāṇa (RKV) 72.7

72.7

śrīmārkaṇḍeya uvāca:
yathāyathā tvaṃ nṛpa bhāṣase ca tathātathā me sukhameti bhāratī /
śaithilyatā vā jarayānvitasya tvatsauhṛdaṃ naśyati naiva tāta /
śṛṇuṣva tasmātsaha bāndhavaiśca kathāmimāṃ pāpaharāṃ praśastām //

The venerable Mārkaṇḍeya said: / Just as you speak, O king, so my speech attains joy. / Though I am accompanied by old age, weakness does not at all destroy affection for you, dear one. / Therefore listen, along with your kinsmen, to this praiseworthy story that removes sin.
