स मां राजन् कर्मवतीमागतामाह सान्त्वयन् । शुश्रूषमाणामासीनां पितुरड्के युधिछ्िर,महाराज युधिष्ठिर! मैं उस समय किसी कार्यसे पिताके पास आयी थी और यह सब सुननेकी इच्छासे उनकी गोदमें बैठ गयी थी। तभी उन ब्राह्मण देवताने मुझे सान्त्वना देते हुए इस नीतिका उपदेश किया था
Translation
¡Oh gran rey Yudhiṣṭhira! En aquel tiempo me acerqué a mi padre por un asunto, y, deseosa de oírlo todo, me senté en su regazo. Entonces aquel brāhmaṇa, semejante a un dios, me consoló y me instruyó en esta enseñanza de nīti.
