Bapa frequently refers to the story of त्रिशङ्कुं . ‘ सुरलोकमारोहतस्त्रिशङ्करिव कुपितशतमखपुंकारनिपतिता राजलक्ष्मीः (p. 8 1. 12-13 of P.) and हर्षचरित p. 249 “त्रिशतैरिव उभयलोकभ्रष्टस्य नक्तंदिनमवशैशिरसस्तिष्ठतः. महाभिषः—See महाभारत आदिपर्व chapter 96. महाभिष performed one thousand अश्वमेधs and one hundred ऽ and secured a seat among the godsOne day when the gods with महाभिष waited upon ब्रह्मा, the Ganges came in her divine form to offer her respects to ब्रह्मा when her garment was displaced by the wind. All the gods hung down their faces महाभिप alone looked at her eagerly. Enraged by his want of propriety, ब्रह्मा cursed him to be a mortal again adding zhat the Ganges who had atbracted him so much would be his wife for some time during which she would trouble him by her waywardness. He was born as शान्तनु, tho father of भीष्मः ब्रह्म said यया हृतमनाश्वासि गङ्गया त्वं हि दुर्मते । सा ते वै मानुषे लोके विप्रियाण्याचरिष्यति ॥ 7 यदा ते भविता मन्युस्तदा शापाद्विमोक्ष्यसे । आदिपर्व chap. 96. गङ्गायाः from the Ganges, अष्टानामपि वसूनाम् The वसु5 are ‘धरो ध्रुवश्च सोमश्च अहश्चैवानिलोऽनलः प्रत्यूषश्च प्रभासश्च वसवोऽष्टाविति स्मृता १९.
