Devanagari script
परिभूत: कथं सूत परै: शक्ष्यामि जीवितुम् अब मैं मन्दबुद्धि मानव सबके लिये शोचनीय होकर दीन-दुःखी मनुष्योंके समान जीवन बिताऊँगा। सूत! मैं ही पहले सब लोगोंके सम्मानका पात्र था; किंतु अब शत्रुओंसे अपमानित होकर कैसे जीवित रह सकूँगा?

Translation
Dhṛtarāṣṭra said: “O Sūta, when I have been humiliated by others, how shall I be able to go on living? Now I, of dull understanding, will have to pass my days as a pitiable, destitute man, suffering like the wretched. O Sūta, I was once the object of everyone’s respect; but now, dishonoured by my enemies, how can I endure life?”
