Skanda Purana — Brahma Khanda, Shloka 12
सा च संज्ञा रवेस्तेजो महद्दुःखेन भामिनी । असहंतीव सा चित्ते चिंतयामास वै तदा
sā ca saṃjñā ravestejo mahadduḥkhena bhāminī | asahaṃtīva sā citte ciṃtayāmāsa vai tadā
وأمّا سَمْجْنْيا، السيدة المتلألئة، فقد أصابها حزن عظيم من وهج رافي المتقد؛ وكأنها لا تطيقه، أخذت حينئذٍ تتفكّر عميقًا في قلبها.
Narrator (Vyāsa, continuing)
