Devanagari script

आसीन एवमेवेदं शोषयिष्ये कलेवरम्‌ । अतः मैं पापी, अपराधी तथा सम्पूर्ण भूमण्डलका विनाश करनेवाला हूँ; इसलिये यहीं इसी रूपमें बैठा हुआ अपने इस शरीरको सुखा डालूँगा

Transliteration

āsīna evam evedaṃ śoṣayiṣye kalevaram | ataḥ mayā pāpī aparādhī tathā sampūrṇa-bhūmaṇḍala-vināśa-kartā asmi; tasmād ihaiva īdṛśa-rūpeṇa āsīnaḥ svaṃ śarīraṃ śoṣayiṣye |

Translation

ଯୁଧିଷ୍ଠିର କହିଲେ— ମୁଁ ଯେପରି ବସିଛି ସେପରି ଏହି ଶରୀରକୁ ଶୋଷାଇ ଦେବି। କାରଣ ମୁଁ ପାପୀ, ଅପରାଧୀ, ଏବଂ ସମଗ୍ର ଭୂମଣ୍ଡଳର ବିନାଶର କାରଣ; ତେଣୁ ଏଠି, ଏହି ଆସନରେ ବସିଥାଇ, ମୋ ଏହି ଦେହକୁ ଶୁଖାଇ ଦେବି।
