Śatrughna’s Entry into Ahicchatrā
Temptation of Sumada and the Goddess’s Boon
एतां महाभाग सुशोभिविभ्रमां । मनोहरांगीं घनपीनसत्कुचाम् । कांतोपभुंक्ष्वाशु निजोग्रपुण्यतः । प्राप्तां पुनस्त्वं त्यज दुःखजातम्
etāṃ mahābhāga suśobhivibhramāṃ | manoharāṃgīṃ ghanapīnasatkucām | kāṃtopabhuṃkṣvāśu nijograpuṇyataḥ | prāptāṃ punastvaṃ tyaja duḥkhajātam
О счастливец, скорее насладись этой возлюбленной — блистательной в изяществе, чарующей станом, с полными и упругими грудями, — что пришла к тебе силою твоей собственной суровой заслуги; и вновь отбрось возникшую скорбь.
