O Bharata, the most wicked-minded one of vile nature, known by the name Kichaka, who is the leader of his forces, addresses we, everyday, O best men, while living in the royal palace in the guise of a Sairandhri, saying "do you become my wife."
योऽयं राज्ञो विराटस्य कीचको नाम भारत। सेनानी: पुरुषव्याघ्रः श्यालः परमदुर्मतिः॥ स मां सैरन्ध्रवेषेण वसन्ती राजवेश्मनि। नित्यमेवाह दुष्टात्मा भार्या मम भवेति वै॥
