Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 9 - Chapter 1 - Verse 12-13


Sanskrit:

देवापि: शान्तनुस्तस्य बाह्लीक इति चात्मजा: ।पितृराज्यं परित्यज्य देवापिस्तु वनं गत: ॥ १२ ॥अभवच्छान्तनू राजा प्राङ्‌महाभिषसंज्ञित: ।यं यं कराभ्यां स्पृशति जीर्णं यौवनमेति स: ॥ १३ ॥

ITRANS:

devāpiḥ śāntanus tasyabāhlīka iti cātmajāḥpitṛ-rājyaṁ parityajyadevāpis tu vanaṁ gataḥ

Translation:

The sons of Pratīpa were Devāpi, Śāntanu and Bāhlīka. Devāpi left the kingdom of his father and went to the forest, and therefore Śāntanu became the king. Śāntanu, who in his previous birth was known as Mahābhiṣa, had the ability to transform anyone from old age to youth simply by touching that person with his hands.
