मृते स्वतनये राज्ञी शोकेन महतावृता । मूर्च्छिता चापतद्भूमौ गजभग्नेव वल्लरी
mṛte svatanaye rājñī śokena mahatāvṛtā | mūrcchitā cāpatadbhūmau gajabhagneva vallarī
わが子が死ぬと、王妃は大いなる悲嘆に包まれ、気を失って地に倒れた。まるで象に折られた蔓草のように。

The Purāṇas acknowledge the full weight of human sorrow, preparing the mind to seek steadiness in dharma amid loss.
No tīrtha is named in this verse.
