tliey lived wherever tliey liked, — without any let. And they were pure in heart, — unpolluted ; and cleansed in conse- quence of tlieir observing all rites. And their minds being pure and the Pure Hari residing in tlieir lieart, they perceived that state which goeth after tlie name of Vishnu, and which is genuine knowledge. Tlien tliat portion of Ilari which is frauglit witli Fatality, spread sin (amongst meii), causing slight pleasure and an overmeasure of woe. Maitreya, this, composed of anger, &c, springs from the seed of unrighteous- nlss and begets delusion and covetonsnes, — and stands in the way of the atttainment (of the summum bonum). And men anon could not (any more) completely attain the eight kinds of success, Rasa, Ullása, &c. And on sin progressing, and those becoming exceedingly fceble, creatures becanie subject to physical changes (a) and to all the miseries consequent thereon. Then they constructed forts composed of trees, or rocks, or water ; and artificial forts ; and cities ; and towns. And, mighty ascetic, they only made houses in those towns, &c, for shelter from cold, the sun, and other (physical discomforts). Having thus provided against cold, etc, men then betook themselves to tasks capable of being performed with the hands, for subsistence.
