ईजे च क्रतुभिर्घोरैर्दीक्षितः पशुमारकैः । देवान् पितॄन् भूतपतीन् नानाकामो यथा भवान् ।। ४-२७-११ ।।

sanskrit

The great sage Nārada continued: My dear King Prācīnabarhiṣat, like you King Purañjana also became implicated in so many desires. Thus he worshiped demigods, forefathers and social leaders with various sacrifices which were all very ghastly because they were inspired by the desire to kill animals. ।। 4-27-11 ।।

english translation

नारद मुनि ने आगे कहा : हे राजा प्राचीनबर्हिषत्, तुम्हारी ही तरह राजा पुरञ्जन भी अनेक इच्छाओं में उलझा हुआ। इसलिए उसने देवताओं, पितरों तथा सामाजिक नेताओं की पूजा विविध यज्ञों द्वारा की, किन्तु ये सारे यज्ञ नृशंस थे, क्योंकि उनके पीछे पशुओं के वध की भावना काम कर रही थी। ।। ४-२७-११ ।‌।
