The Glory of the Viśrānti Tīrtha and the Account of a Rākṣasa’s Liberation
एकः सार्थं प्रयातोऽहं नोत्सृजामि कथंचन ॥ तस्माद्राक्षस गच्छ त्वं सार्थं मम परिग्रहम् ॥
ekaḥ sārthaṃ prayāto 'haṃ notsṛjāmi kathaṃcana || tasmād rākṣasa gaccha tvaṃ sārthaṃ mama parigraham ||
ब्राह्मण बोला, मैं इस सार्थ के साथ चल रहा हूँ। मैं इन्हे कभी छोड़ूंगा नहीं। इसलिए राक्षस, तुम मेरी तरफ देखो। मेरे ऊपर हाथ उठाओ, इन लोगों को मत छूना।
