इति सा दृढनिर्बंधा वार्यमाणापि बंधुभिः । सत्यलोपभयान्नारी प्राणांस्त्यक्तुं मनो दधे
iti sā dṛḍhanirbaṃdhā vāryamāṇāpi baṃdhubhiḥ | satyalopabhayānnārī prāṇāṃstyaktuṃ mano dadhe
یوں، رشتہ داروں کے روکنے کے باوجود وہ اپنے پختہ عزم پر قائم رہی۔ سچ میں خلل پڑنے کے خوف سے اس ناری نے جان تک چھوڑ دینے کا ارادہ کر لیا۔
