Then the highly-afflicted Krishna who was there ready with water sprinkled water on the face of them and for comforting them said such salutary words that should be said on such occasions. Then the eyes of resembling lotuspetals said these words to his sister, weeping, insensible, trembling and pierced in her very heart.
सोपचारस्तु कृष्णश्च दुःखितां भृशदुःखितः। सिक्त्वांभसा समाश्वास्य तत्तदुक्त्वा हितं वचः॥ विसंज्ञकल्पां रुदती मर्मविद्धां प्रवेपतीम्। भगिनीं पुण्डरीकाक्ष इदं वचनमब्रवीत्॥
