1348d For the story of this quarrel, vide Matsya-purāṇa 50. 56–65. One half line is variously read 'dharma-mītatamā vṛddhā janam bhokṣyanti nirbhayāḥ' (Jayaswal l. 40), Prof. Mankad reads 'dharmabhītatatamā vṛddhā janam mokṣyanti nirbhayāḥ' Jayaswal thinks that 'dharmamīta' refers to the Greek king Demetrius.
