The pleasure which a traveller who has made a long journey on foot feels when he lies down on a bed, that which a person feels when he finds a seat after having stood for a long time for want of room, or that which is felt by a thirsty person when he finds a glass of cool water, or that which is felt by a hungry man when he finds good food set before him, or that which a guest feels when a dish of desirable food is placed before him at the proper time, or that which is felt by an old men when after long coveting he gets a son, or that which is felt by one when meeting with a dear friend or relative about whom he had become highly anxious, resembles that which I have been filled on account of these words given vent to by you.
अध्वक्लान्तस्य शयनं स्थानक्लान्तस्य चासनम्। तृषितस्य च पानीयं क्षुधार्तस्य च भोजनम्॥ ईप्सितस्येव सम्प्राप्तिरन्नस्य समयेऽतिथेः। एषितस्यात्मनः काले वृद्धस्यैव सुतो यथा॥ मनसा चिन्तितस्येव प्रीतिस्निग्धस्य दर्शनम्। प्रह्लादयति मां वाक्यं भवता यदुदीरितम्॥ दत्तचक्षुरिवाकाशे पश्यामि विमृशामि च।
