In the '''Jaimineeya Brahmana, II.440-442''' devatas first send SuparNa, the eagle or the Sun-bird. However, the PaNis bribe him into silence, and he accepts their gifts and returns without any information. The enraged Gods strangle him, and he vomits out the curds, etc. received from the PaNis. Then the Gods send SaramA. She crosses the river RasA and approaches the PaNis. She is also offered bribes, but (as in the Rigveda) she refuses their blandishments and returns to Indra with the information that the cows are hidden inside the RasA. She and her descendants are then blessed by a grateful Indra.
