etaddṛṣṭaṃ bhaviṣye hi ruroruttamatejasaḥ |
āyuṣo'tipravṛddhasya bhāryārthe'rdhaṃ hrasatviti || 16 ||
"Sauti continued, 'And when Dharmaraja had said so, that maiden of superior complexion, Pramadvara, endued with a moiety of Ruru's life, rose as from her slumber. This bestowal by Ruru of a moiety of his own span of life to resuscitate his bride afterwards led, as it would be seen, to a curtailment of Ruru's life.
