Greatly afflicted with sorrow, I am at present leading a very distressful life in the woods. The cruel speeches which I heard uttered (by my enemies) on the occasion of the past. Gambling and the expressions of my afflicted friends regarding the game and other subjects, live still fresh in my heart and when remembered, they put me into serious thinking during the whole night.
अहं वने दुर्वसतीर्वसन् परमदुःखितः। अक्षयूताधिकारे च गिरः शृण्वन् सुदारुणाः॥ आतोनां सुहृदां वाचो द्यूतप्रभृति शंसताम्। अहं हृदि श्रिताः स्मृत्वा सर्वरात्रीविचिन्तयन्॥
