Full sarga summary

Rama continues: from the pot are born two sages, Agastya and then Vasishtha, who becomes Ikshvaku's priest -- meanwhile Nimi, by the gods' boon, comes to dwell as the blinking in the eyes of all beings, and from the churning of his preserved body is born a son called Mithi, Janaka and Vaideha, ancestor of the kings of Videha, whence the land is named Maithila.
