English Meaning
In this wise the horse-sacrifice being finished and Mahadeva having disappeared, the farseeing and leading twice-born ones repaired to their respective hermitages. And having placed his eldest son Śaśabindu as the king of the country of Valhika, the king Ila reared another city in the middle country. In time Ila attained to the excellent Brahmä region and his son Pururavå obtained that Pratişthāna kingdom.
