His sons having not returned even after a long time Sagara asked his grandson Amśumān to seek them out, and after an extensive search he saw Kapila at Pātāla. Amśumān pleased Kapila with laudatory phrases and the latter returned to him the sacrificial horse. Kapila also pronounced the blessing that the grandson of Amśumān would perform the purificatory rites of Sagara’s sons by bringing down Gaṅgā to earth from heaven. Amśumān returned to the palace with the horse and the aśvamedha was duly concluded.
