TRANSLATION

Mandhata, the son of YuvanaSva, was the cause of fear for
Ravana and other thieves and rogues who caused anxiety. O King
Pariksit, because they feared him, the son of Yuvanasva was
known as Trasaddasyu. This name was given by King Indra. By the
mercy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the son of
Yuvanasva was so powerful that when he became emperor he ruled
the entire world, consisting of seven islands, without any second
ruler.
