Translation by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada:
The sage, in meditation, was covered by the skin of a stag, and long, compressed hair was scattered all over him. The King, whose palate was dry from thirst, asked him for water.
Purport by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada:
The King, being thirsty, asked the sage for water. That such a great devotee and king asked for water from a sage absorbed in trance was certainly providential. Otherwise there was no chance of such a unique happening. Maharaja Pariksit was thus placed in an awkward position so that gradually Srimad-Bhagavatam could be revealed.
