Having heard his words, he (the frog king) thus spoke with his senses and mind much pained, "O king, be kind. I am the king of the frogs, named Ayu. She was my daughter, named Sushobhana. This is but an instance of her bad character. She had deceived many other kings before. Then the king said, “I desire to have her. Let her be given to me by you."
स तद् वाक्यमुपलभ्य व्यथितेन्द्रियमनाः प्रोवाच प्रसीद राजन्नहमायुर्नाम मण्डूकराजो मम सा दुहिता सुशोभना नाम। तस्या हि दौःशील्यमेतद् बवहस्त्या राजानो विप्रलब्धाः पूर्वा इति॥ तमब्रवीद् राजा तया समर्थी सा मे दीयतामिति।
