अतिमुक्तकषण्डैश्च पारिजातैश्च शोभितम् । कदलीवनभूयिष्ठमिष्टं कान्तं मनोरमम् ॥
वाय्वम्बुफलपर्णादैर्दन्तोलूखलिकैरपि । तथाश्मकुट्टैर्वानेयैर्मुनिभिर्बहुभिर्वृतम् ॥
English Translation
It abounded with forests of Plantains pleasant to view and most charming. And it was haunted by various ascetics, some living on air, some water, some on fruits, some on leaves, some on raw raise again which they husked with the aid only of stones and some that were called Vaneyas. And it was filled with the chauntings of the Vedas and abounded with diverse kinds of animals.
स्वाध्यायघोषसंघुष्टं मृगयूथशताकुलम् । अहिंस्रैर्धर्मपरमैर्नृभिरत्यन्तसेवितम् ॥
सप्तसारस्वतं तीर्थमाजगाम हलायुधः । यत्र मङ्कणकः सिद्धस्तपस्तेपे महामुनिः ॥
English Translation
And it was the favourite abode of men shorn of malice and devoted to righteousness. Baladeva, having the plough for his weapon, arrived at that tirtha, called the Sapta-Sarasvat, where the great ascetic Mankanaka had his penances successfully practised.
