एतस्मिन्नंतरे प्राप्तं सर्वं तस्याः कुटुम्बकम् । रोरूयमाणं दुःखार्तं श्रुत्वा तां तत्र चागताम्
etasminnaṃtare prāptaṃ sarvaṃ tasyāḥ kuṭumbakam | rorūyamāṇaṃ duḥkhārtaṃ śrutvā tāṃ tatra cāgatām
এই ফাঁকে তার সমগ্র পরিবার সেখানে এসে পৌঁছাল। সে সেখানে এসেছে—এ কথা শুনে তারা দুঃখে কাতর, বিলাপ করতে করতে সেই স্থানে ছুটে এল।
