I was also attached to that heroic one, following him in his course even as a shadow. It so happened that once he was engaged in the play at dice, at which he was defeated; and in consequence thereof he came alone into the wood. Beholding my heroic husband, wearing a single piece of cloth, maniac-like and afflicted with grief, I also followed him into the forest with a view to console him. Once on a time, that warlike one, for some reason go to in forest.
भक्तामहपि तं वीरं छायेवानुगता पथि। तस्य दैवात् प्रसङ्गोऽभूदतिमात्रं सुदेवने॥ द्यूते स निर्जितश्चैव वनमेक उपेयिवान्। तमेकवसनं वीरमुन्मत्तमिव विह्वलम्॥ आश्वासयन्ती भर्तारमहमप्यगमं वनम्। स कदाचिद् वने वीरः कस्मिंश्चित् कारणान्तरे॥
