You were made by my parents as a partner of my domestic life; you are nobly-born and of good disposition; you are a mother of children; you are ever devoted to me; you are innocent, ever constant to your vows; you have chosen and wed me in due rites, how can I abandon you for the sake of saving my own life? How shall I be able to abandon my own son? (He is) a child of tender years, having no bcard (yet on his chin). How shall I sacrifice my daughter whom I have begotten myself, who has been given to me by the illustrious creator for bestowing her on a husband and through whom I am to enjoy, along with my ancestors, these regions attainable by those only who possess daughter's sons.
पित्रा मात्रा च विहितां सदा गार्हस्थ्यभागिनीम्। वरयित्वा यथान्यायं मन्त्रवत् परिणीय च॥ कुलीनां शीलसम्पन्नामपत्यजननीमपि। त्वामहं जीवितस्यार्थे साध्वीमनपकारिणीम्॥ परित्यक्तुं न शक्ष्यामि भार्यां नित्यमनुव्रताम्। कुत एव परित्यक्तुं सुतं शक्ष्याम्यहं स्वयम्॥ बालमप्राप्तवयसमजातव्यञ्जनाकृतिम्। भर्तुरर्थाय निक्षिप्तां न्यासं धात्रा महात्मना॥ यया दौहित्रजॉल्लोकानाशंसे पितृभिः सह। स्वयमुत्पाद्य तां बालां कथमुत्स्रष्टुमुत्सहे॥
