Sāvitrī’s Trirātra-Vrata and Departure with Satyavān (सावित्रीव्रतनिश्चयः सहगमनं च)
Devanagari script
ततो ददृशतुस्तौ त॑ छिन्नपक्षद्धयं खगम् । तयो: शशंस गृध्रस्तु सीतार्थे रावणाद् वधम्,तदनन्तर उन्होंने पास आकर देखा--जटायुके दोनों पंख कटे हुए हैं। गृध्रने बताया कि 'सीताको छुड़ानेके लिये युद्ध करते समय मैं रावणके हाथसे अत्यन्त घायल कर दिया गया हूँ!
Translation
मग ते दोघे जवळ येऊन त्या पक्ष्याला पाहू लागले—त्याचे दोन्ही पंख छिन्न झाले होते. तेव्हा गृध्राने सांगितले की सीतेसाठी रावणाशी युद्ध करताना तो रावणाच्या हातून अत्यंत जखमी झाला आहे।
