Sanskrit Original
मन्वन्तरेषु सर्वेषु विषमा जायते मही। उज्जहार ततो वैन्यः शिलाजालान् समन्ततः॥ धनुष्कोट्या महाराज तेन शैला विवर्धिताः। स विष्णुना च देवेन शक्रेण विबुधैः सह॥ ऋषिभिश्च प्रजापालैब्राह्मणैश्चाभिषेचितः। तं साक्षात् पृथिवी भेजे रत्नान्यादाय पाण्डव॥

The: Vishnu, and the gods with Indra, and the Rishis, and the Regents of the world, and the Brahmanas, assembled for crowning Prithu. The earth herself, O son of Pandu, came incarnate to him, with a tribute of gems and jewels.
