Formerly thou were instructed

Formerly thou were instructed
- on the mountains of Himavat by Meru Savarni; in the town of Varanavata by Krishna Dwaipayana;
- on the cliff of Bhrigu by Rama; and
- on the banks of the Dhrishadwati by Sambhu himself.
- Thou hast also listened to the instruction of the great Rishi Asita on the hills of Anjana; and
- thou becamest a disciple of Bhrigu on the banks of the Kalmashi.
- Narada and this thy priest Dhaumya will now become thy instructors.
- thou surpassest in intelligence even Pururavas,
- the son of Ila; in strength,
- all other monarchs, and in virtue, even the Rishis.
- to win victory, which belongeth to Indra;
- to control thy wrath, which belongeth to Yama;
- to give in charity, which belongeth to Kuvera; and
- to control all passions, which belongeth to Varuna.
- the power of gladdening from the moon,
- the power of sustaining all from water;
- forbearance from the earth;
- energy from the entire solar disc;
- strength from the winds, and
- affluence from the other elements.
