[Sanskrit text for this chapter is available]
Śrī Mārkaṇḍeya said:
1-2. On the southern bank of Narmadā, there is the excellent Devatīrtha. Parameśvara was propitiated by Devas who came there.
He who is free from lust and anger and takes his holy bath there in the Tīrtha, shall undoubtedly attain the benefit of (the gift of) a thousand cows.
