But when the father then abandoned his own son from the kingdom, the sage Vasiṣṭha did not prevent it, and for a reason. That prince saw a milch-cow yielding all desires; and out of anger, out of greed, and out of exhaustion, being afflicted with hunger, (he took) her. He indeed is the king remembered as Hariścandra, son of Triśaṅku, the performer of the Rājasūya, famed as sovereign. The Yavanas, the Pāradas, the Kāmbojas and the Pahlavas, and the Bahūdakas — these five are declared to be hosts of demons. Endowed with that power of weapons and with (his own) strength, enraged, he swiftly slew the Haihayas by the might of his weapons. That (sacrificial) horse was carried off near the shore by Śakra, the king of the gods, who was pursuing his own purpose, and was made to enter the earth.
