Although shut up in the inner apartment-well protected and guarded by the dreadful shedemons she had always her mind in you and was devoted to you. Although tempted in many a way and remonstrated with she did not think of that Rākşasa in her inner mind. Her heart is pure and she is not spoiled with sin-do you therefore take back Maithilī. Do you not speak otherwise-I do command you.
रुद्धा चान्तःपुरे गुप्ता त्वच्चित्ता त्वत्परायणा। रक्षिता राक्षसीभिश्च घोराभिर्घोरबुद्धिभिः।।।। प्रलोभ्यमाना विविधं तय॑माना च मैथिली। नाचिन्तयत तद्रक्षस्त्वद्गतेनान्तरात्मना।९।। विशुद्धभावां निष्पापां प्रतिगृह्णीष्व मैथिलीम्। न किंचिदभिधातव्या अहमाज्ञापयामि ते॥
