TRANSLATION
Suddenly Citraratha was forced to fall from the sky headfirst with his airplane. Struck with wonder, he was ordered by the great sages named the Valikhilyas to throw the brahmanas bones in the nearby River Sarasvati. He had to do this and bathe in the river before returning to his own abode.
