अथ संप्रस्थिते शुक्ले कर्दमो भगवानृषिः ।
आस्ते स्म बिन्दुसरसि तं कालं प्रतिपालयन् ।
उपायादाश्रमपदमादिराजस्सहात्मजः ॥
Then, after the Lord (the pure Being)
had disappeared, the divine sage
Kardama was staying at (lake)
Bindusaras, a waiting the time (of Manu's
arrival). (Manu), the first of Kings, along
with his daughter, came to (Kardama's)
Thermitage.
 
मनुः --
' प्रियव्रतोत्तानपदोस्स्वसेयं दुहिता मम ।
अन्विच्छति पतिं युक्तं प्रत्तां प्रतिगृहाण मे ॥'
Manu--
"This daughter of mine, the sister of
Priyavrata and Uttanapada, seeks a suit-
able husband; accept her whom I give in
marriage to you."
 
कर्दमः--
'बाढमुद्वोढुकामोऽहमप्रत्ता च तवात्मजा ' ॥
Kardama--
"Surely I am desirous of marrying and
your daughter has not yet been given in
marriage to anybody."
