[Page4935-a+ 38]

“यस्मात् विश्वमिदं सर्वं तस्य शक्त्या महात्मनः । तस्मा-

देवोच्यते विष्णुर्विशधातोः प्रवेशनात्” इत्युक्तेः विश--प्रवेशे

नु पृषो० इत्यपि बोध्यम् । २ वह्नु ३ शुद्धे ४ वसुदेवतायां

ष्णुहारीते” ति याज्ञ० ६ तद्दैवते श्रवणनक्षत्रे ज्यो० त० ।

mild and benevolent deity. 2. AGNI or fire. 3. One of the demigods 

called Vasus. 4. A pure or pious man. 5. The name of an ancient
