एवं तौ शापमुत्सृज्य ब्राह्मणौ विगतज्वरौ। तां गां हि दुर्बलां वृद्धां ददतुर्ब्राह्मणाय वै॥
evaṃ tau śāpamutsṛjya brāhmaṇau vigatajvarau| tāṃ gāṃ hi durbalāṃ vṛddhāṃ dadaturbrāhmaṇāya vai||
English Meaning
Having thus imprecated the curse upon the king the Rșis became silent. The cow was old and weak so they both, with mutual consent, conferred that upon another Brāhmaṇa.
