v1.c5.s3.100
Conqueror of Nipas: was engaged in severe austerities for 18,000 years. Was served by Janamejaya, son of Bhallāṭa. They were both attacked by Nipas who were unmoved by Ugrāyudha's appeals for peace and protection; then Ugrāyudha asked Lord of Death to destroy them. Soon he took pity and asked Yama to save them; and this led to a scuffle between Yama and the king who got salvation.
