¹³⁸⁷ भविष्यं कीर्तयिष्यामि शन्तनोस्तु निबोधत । 'इद चोदाहरन्त्यत्र श्लोकं प्रति महाभिषक् (भिषम्) । यं यं कराभ्यां स्पृशति जीर्णं रोगिणमेव वा । पुनर्यूवा च भवति तस्मात्तं शन्तनुं विदुः ॥ मत्स्य 50. 41-43, वायु 99 238 The verse यं यं contains a popular etymology of the word शन्तनु. The word भविष्य should mean only भविष्यपुराण, since it is the सूत who says this and शन्तनु was a king anterior to सूत by some generations.
