brāhmaṇa uvāca |
kimidaṃ bhavati tvaṃ māṃ tiṣṭhetyuktvā varāṅgane |
uparodhaṃ kṛtavatī na visarjitavatyasi || 18 ||

"And while the lady of handsome eyes was still engaged in waiting upon her lord, she beheld that Brahmana waiting for alms and beholding him, she remembered that she had asked him to wait. And remembering all this, she felt abashed. And then that chaste woman possessed of great fame, took something for alms and went out, O thou foremost of the Bharatas, for giving it unto that Brahmana. And when she came before him, the Brahmana said, 'O best of women, O blessed one, I am surprised at thy conduct! Having requested me to wait saying, 'Stay' thou didst not dismiss me!'
