"Vaisampayana said, 'It hath been heard by us, O monarch, that what thou askest is a mystery even to the gods. And at that time when the earth was bereft of Kshatriyas, the Kshatriya ladies, desirous of offspring, used to come, O monarch, to the Brahmanas and Brahmanas of rigid vows had connection with them during the womanly season alone, but never, O king, lustfully and out of season.
