Then old Ikshváku's famous son

O'er Śatadrú[348] his passage won,

Near Ailadhána on the strand,

And came to Aparparyat's land.

O'er Śilá's flood he hurried fast,

Akurvatí's fair stream he passed,

Crossed o'er Ágneya's rapid rill,

And Śalyakartan onward still.

Śilávahá's swift stream he eyed,

True to his vows and purified,
