Hearing that, the brahmin's wife Śuciṣmatī attained delight; exceedingly filled with love, she praised her own fate. (2) Then in course of time that woman became pregnant, when the rite called garbhādhāna had been performed by him according to the rule. All around the rivers (grew) clear, together with the minds of beings; darkness grew utterly faint, and passion (rajas) too became free of dust. Dhaumya, Upamanyu, Vatsa and other sages, and the sages' daughters, came to the blessed hermitage of Viśvānara for the sake of the (rite of) appeasement. Praising him thus to one another, with the hair of their bodies bristling with joy, they all took leave of Viśvānara and went as they had come. Then, remembering Śiva's lotus feet, (she) told Vaiśvānara face to face all that good fortune of hers and the duty concerning the son.
