ततस्त्वं भार्यया सार्द्धमन्यदेशांतरे गतः । समारुह्य च कृच्छ्रेण कस्मिंश्चिद्गिरिनिर्झरे
tatastvaṃ bhāryayā sārddhamanyadeśāṃtare gataḥ | samāruhya ca kṛcchreṇa kasmiṃścidgirinirjhare
تب تم اپنی بھاریا کے ساتھ دوسرے دیس چلے گئے، اور بڑی مشقّت سے کسی پہاڑی چشمے تک چڑھ پہنچے۔
Vasiṣṭha
Tirtha: (Unspecified) Girinirjhara-tīrtha (narrative precursor)
Type: kund
Listener: King
Scene: A couple climbs a rugged mountain path; the wife supports the husband or walks steadfastly beside him; below, a silver ribbon of water cascades into a clear pool amid rocks and trees.
Hardship becomes a path toward sacred encounter—movement through the landscape prepares the narrative for tīrtha-related merit.
A particular mountain-stream is mentioned but not named yet; it functions as a lead-in to a sacred spot described next.
None explicitly; the verse narrates travel to a water-source that later supports ritual acts like bathing.
