O you the best of twice-born ones, we three being deprived of our kingdom by Kaikeyi have been living in this dense forest by virtue of our ! effulgence. Do you take heart for a moment and live here. Instantly shall my husband return with good many wild fruits and roots and with sufficient meat after killing many a deer, hog and Gosamp. Truly do you relate to me your name, Gotra and leneage. O you twice-born one, why do you range alone in this forest of Dandaka?
ते वयं प्रच्युता राज्यात् कैकेय्यास्तु कृते त्रयः॥ विचराम द्विजश्रेष्ठ वनं गम्भीरमोजसा। समाश्वस मुहूर्ते तु शक्यं वस्तुमिह त्वया।२२।। आगमिष्यति मे भर्ता वन्यमादाय पुष्कलम्। रु.न् गोधान् वराहांश्च हत्वाऽऽदायामिषं बहु ॥ स त्वं नाम च गोत्रं च कुलमाचक्ष्व तत्त्वतः। एकश्च दण्डकारण्ये किमर्थं चरसि द्विज॥
