अग्नेरथ वचः श्रुत्वा तद्रक्षः प्रजहार ताम् ।
ब्रह्मन्वराहरूपेण मनोमारुतरंहसा ॥ १.६.१ ॥
Hearing the words of Agni, that rākṣasa seized her, O Brahmin, in the form of a boar, with the speed of mind and wind.

Seeing him, fallen from his mother's womb, radiant as the sun, that rākṣasa was reduced to ashes and fell, releasing her.

आवर्तन्ती सृतिं तस्या भृगोः पत्न्यास्तपस्विनः ।
तस्या मार्गं सृतवतीं दृष्ट्वा तु सरितं तदा ॥ १.६.७ ॥
Seeing the river flowing along the winding course of the ascetic Bhṛgu's wife, following her path.
1.6.8
नाम तस्यास्तदा नद्याश्चक्रे लोकपितामहः ।
वधूसरेति भगवांश्च्यवनस्याश्रमं प्रति ॥ १.६.८ ॥
Then the blessed grandfather of the worlds named that river Vadhūsarā, because it flowed toward Cyavana's hermitage.
1.6.9
स एवं च्यवनो जज्ञे भृगोः पुत्रः प्रतापवान् ।
तं ददर्श पिता तत्र च्यवनं तां च भामिनीम्।
स पुलोमां ततो भार्यां पप्रच्छ कुपितो भृगुः ॥ १.६.९ ॥
Thus he, Cyavana, the mighty son of Bhṛgu, was born. There his father Bhṛgu saw Cyavana and that radiant woman. Then Bhṛgu, enraged, asked his wife Pulomā.

तत्त्वमाख्याहि तं ह्यद्य शप्तुमिच्छाम्यहं रुषा ।
बिभेति को न शापान्मे कस्य चायं व्यतिक्रमः ॥ १.६.११ ॥
"So tell me that now, for I wish to curse him in anger. Who does not fear my curse? And whose transgression is this?"
1.6.12
अग्निना भगवंस्तस्मै रक्षसेऽहं निवेदिता ।
ततो मामनयद्रक्षः क्रोशन्तीं कुररीमिव ॥ १.६.१२ ॥
"O blessed one, Agni revealed me to that demon. Then the demon carried me off, as I cried out like a kurarī bird."
1.6.13
साऽहं तव सुतस्यास्य तेजसा परिमोक्षिता ।
भस्मीभूतं च तद्रक्षो मामुत्सृज्य पपात वै ॥ १.६.१३ ॥
By the power of this son of yours I have been freed, and that demon, reduced to ashes, let me go and fell.
