श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
इति सिद्धगणोद्गीता गीताः श्रुत्वा महीपतिः ।
विषादमाजगामाशु भीरू रणरवादिव ॥ १ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
iti siddhagaṇodgītā gītāḥ śrutvā mahīpatiḥ |
viṣādamājagāmāśu bhīrū raṇaravādiva || 1 ||

Vasishtha continued:—Upon hearing these sonatas of the Siddhas (holy spirits), Janaka was dejected in his mind, like a coward at the noise of a conflict.
