Sauti said: O Brahman, having heard these words of Agni, the Rakshasa assumed the form of a boar and carried her away as fast as the wind or the mind.

The child, of Bhrigu, who was in her womb, was very much enraged at this violence and he dropped down from his mother's womb, For this reason he got the name as Chyavana.

On seeing that the child had dropped from her mother's womb as shinning as the sun, he quitted the grasp of the lady. But he fell down and was burnt to ashes.

O descendant of Bhrigu, the beautiful Puloma, heing afflicted with grief, took up her child Chyavana and walked away.

The Grandfather of all beings, Brahma himself saw the faultless wife of Bhrigu weeping with eyes full of tears.

The river followed the foot-steps of the wife of the great Rishi Bhrigu; and the Grandfather of the worlds seeing, it follow the path of his son's wife, named it himself. He called it Vadhusara and it passed by the hermitage of Chyavana.

In this way was born Chyavana, the son of Bhrigu of great power. And Bhrigu saw his son (yavana aid his beautiful mother. He asked his wife Puloma in a rage.

Bhrigu said : Who made you known to the Rakshasa resolved to carry you away? O lady of captivating smiles, he could not (himself) know you to be my wife.

Puloma said: O Lord, I was made known to the Rakshasa by Agni. He carried me away who was weeping like the Kurari.

I was rescued only by the extraordinary brightness of your son. The Rakshasa quitted his grasp and falling to the ground, was turned into ashes.

Sauti said: Having heard this from Puloma Bhrigu became exceedingly angry and out of anger he cursed Agni, saying, “Be an all devouring (element).
