Come now, let us two give or let us two toil.' Mitravis Deṣṭradyumna went for a year with the Go and Āyus rites. Just above the year, he went to the heavenly world. Then Datva Sautemanasa, having sacrificed with this very three-day rite, went to the heavenly world. Having sacrificed with this very rite, one goes to the heavenly world. With this very rite, Hiraṇyadant Baida sacrificed, desiring pairs. The cattle and horse, elephant and gold, goats and sheep, rice and barley, sesame and beans that are here—of all this he had much. One who, knowing thus, sacrifices desiring pairs, for him this becomes plentiful. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.278.p1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.278.p1) athaiṣo'ntarvasuḥ > Now this is the Antarvasu. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.278.p2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.278.p2) khaṇḍikaśca haudbhāriḥ keśī ca dārbhyaḥ pāñcāleṣu paspṛdhāte > Khaṇḍika Audbhāri and Keśin Dārbhya contended among the Pañcālas. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.278.p3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.278.p3) sa ha khaṇḍikaḥ keśinamabhibabhūva > Khaṇḍika overcame Keśin. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.278.p4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.278.p4) sa ha keśī khaṇḍikena nibāḍha uccaiḥśravasaṃ kauvayeyaṃ jagāma kauravyaṃ rājānaṃ > Keśin, pressed hard by Khaṇḍika, went to Uccaiḥśravas Kaupayeya, the Kauravya king, > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.278.p5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.278.p5) māturbhrātaram > his maternal uncle. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.278.p6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.278.p6) taṃ hovāca yajñaṃ me vidhehīti > He said to him: 'Arrange a sacrifice for me.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.278.p7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.278.p7) tatheti hovāca > He said: 'So be it.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya~en-mt.2-8.278) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.278](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.278) · Pramāṇa
