'King Manu Vaivasvata,' he says;--'his people are Men, and they are staying here;'-- householders, unlearned in the scriptures, have come thither: it is these he instructs;--'The Rik (verses) are the Veda: this it is;' thus saying, let him go over a hymn of the Rik, as if reciting it. Masters of lute-players have come thither: these he calls upon, 'Masters of lute-players,' he says, 'sing ye of this Sacrificer along with righteous kings of yore!' and they accordingly sing of him; and in thus singing of him, they make him share the same world with the righteous kings of yore.
