One guilty of foeticide is purified by adoring the fire for three years. One guilty for foeticide becomes purifies at even a hundred Yojanas from Mahasara, or the Tirthas called Pushkara, or Prabhasa, or Manasa on the north, if only he sets out for any of them. A slayer of creatures is purged of his sins by saving from impending danger as many creatures of that particular kind as have been killed by him.
