I shall live in the forest, always blessing you. It is proper, O son, for the members of our family, to make over sovereignty, when old age comes, to children and lead the forest mode of life. Living there on air alone, or abstaining froin all food, I shall, with this wife of mine, O hero, practice severe austeities.
तवाशिषः प्रयुञ्जानो भविष्यामि वनेचरः॥ उचितं नः कुले तात सर्वेषां भरतर्षभ। पुत्रेष्वैश्वर्यमाधाय वयसोऽन्ते वनं नृप॥ तत्राहं वायुभक्षो वा निराहारोऽपि वा वसन्। पल्या सहानया वीर चरिष्यामि तपः परम्॥
