O Prince, Damayanti, was in the above way addressed by the swan. She (Damayanti) in retum said to the swan, “you also thus speak unto Nala."O Prince, the bird having uttered to the daughter of Vidharbha "So be it" returned to the country of the Nishadhas and described everything to Nala himself.
एवमुक्ता तु हंसेन दमयन्ती विशांपते॥ अब्रवीत् तत्र तं हंसं त्वमप्येवं नले वद। तथेत्युक्त्वाण्डजः कन्या विदर्भस्य विशाम्पते। पुनरागम्य निषधान् नले सर्वं न्यवेदयत्॥
