THE STORY OF THE INCARNATION
AS PARASURAMA
 
रेणोत्सुतां रेणुकां वै जमदग्निरुवाह याम् ।
तस्यां वै भार्गवऋषेर्जज्ञे रामोऽभिविश्रुतः ॥
यमाहुर्वासुदेवांशं हैहयानां कुलान्तकम् ।
त्रिस्सप्तकृत्वो य इमां चक्रे निःक्षत्रियां महीम् ॥

Renuka, the
Jamadagni married
daughter of Renu. Of her and that sage
of the Bhrigu line (Jamadagni), was born
the very well known Rama, who, they
say, was a partial incarnation of Lord
Vasudeva, the annihilator of the race of
the Haihayas, He who, twenty-one times,
swept this earth clean of the Kshatriyas.
