Devanagari script
द्वीपद्गुमानपश्यन्तं निपातार्थे श्रमान्वितम् इधर कौआ थक गया था। उसे कहीं आश्रय लेनेके लिये द्वीप या वृक्ष नहीं दिखायी दे रहे थे; अतः उसके मनमें भय समा गया और वह घबराकर अचेत-सा हो उठा

dvīpadgumān apaśyantaṁ nipātārthe śramānvitam
Translation
The swan said: “Worn out from exertion and seeking a place to alight, he could see neither an island nor a tree. With no refuge in sight, fear entered his mind, and in his panic he became as if senseless.”
