Happiness is followed by misery, and misery by happiness. In this world which has both happiness and misery, none of these two exists without break. You little-witted men, where will go, casting off on the naked earth this beautiful child, this son who is a13 ornament of your family. Verily, I cannot conceive that this child endued with grace, youth and beauty is dead.
सुखस्यानन्तरं दुःखं दुःखस्यानन्तरं सुखम्॥ सुखदुःखावृते लोके नेहास्त्येकमनन्तरम्। इमं क्षितितले त्यक्त्वा बालं रूपसमन्वितम्॥ कुलशोभाकरं मूढाः पुत्रं त्यक्त्वा क्व यास्यथा रूपयौवनसम्पन्नं द्योतमानमिव श्रिया॥ जीवन्तमेव पश्यामि मनसा नात्र संशयः।
