त्वया हि मे बहु कृतं यदन्यो न करिष्यति । यद् भर्त्राहं समेष्यामि शीघ्रमेव द्विजोत्तम,“विप्रवर! आपने मेरा बहुत बड़ा उपकार किया, जो दूसरा नहीं कर सकता; क्योंकि अब मैं अपने स्वामीसे शीघ्र ही मिल सकूँगी”
tvayā hi me bahu kṛtaṃ yad anyo na kariṣyati | yad bhartṛrāhaṃ sameṣyāmi śīghram eva dvijottama ||
ದ್ವಿಜೋತ್ತಮನೇ! ನೀನು ನನಗೆ ಮಾಡಿದ ಉಪಕಾರ ಮಹತ್ತರವಾದುದು; ಅದನ್ನು ಬೇರೆ ಯಾರೂ ಮಾಡಲಾರರು. ಏಕೆಂದರೆ ಈಗ ನಾನು ಶೀಘ್ರದಲ್ಲೇ ನನ್ನ ಪತಿಯನ್ನು ಮತ್ತೆ ಸೇರುವೆನು।
