स च ज्येष्ठो नरश्रेष्ठ सगरस्यात्मसंभवः । बालान्गृहीत्वा तु जले सरय्वा रघुनन्दन । प्रक्षिप्य प्रहसन्नित्यं मज्जतस्तान्निरीक्ष्य वै ॥

English Scholarly Translation
O foremost of men,* the eldest son of Sagara, taking those children, would, O descendant of Raghu, often cast them into the Sarayū, and in mirth behold them sinking in the waters. *The text has Narasresthas, put for Asamanja. Evidently this is an error. I make it a vocative.
