śrīvāyudeva uvāca | yatra tatra rame nityam ahaṃ satyena te śape | na viṣādas tvayā kāryaḥ karṇa vaikartanaṃ prati ||

Translation

Śrī Vāyudeva said: “Wherever the abode of the Veda, truthfulness, self-restraint, purity, dharma, modesty, prosperity, steadfastness, and forgiveness is found, there I ever dwell in contentment. I swear to you by truth itself. Therefore, O Karṇa, son of the charioteer (Vaikartana), you should not give way to grief.”
