Shloka 20
तमहं नृपतिं दीनमब्रवं पुनरेव च । स्मर्तव्यो5स्मि महाराज दर्शयिष्यामि ते सुतम्,तब मैंने दीन हुए उस नरेशसे कहा--“महाराज! संकटके समय मुझे याद करना। मैं तुम्हारे पुत्रको तुमसे मिला दूँगा। पृथ्वीनाथ! चिन्ता न करो। यमराजके वशभमें पड़े हुए तुम्हारे उस प्रिय पुत्रको मैं पुनः: उस रूपमें लाकर तुम्हें दे दूँगा”

तमहं नृपतिं दीनमब्रवं पुनरेव च । स्मर्तव्योऽस्मि महाराज दर्शयिष्यामि ते सुतम् ।
