nijena jīvitenāpi jagatāmupakāriṇaḥ /
parituṣṭāsmi te vatsa ! jīva jīmūtavāhana //

Gaurí (addressing Malayavatí).
Child, how could I prove untrue? (Going up to the hero, and sprinkling him with water from a water-pot.) I am well pleased with thee, who even at the cost of thy own life would'st benefit the world. Live, Jímútaváhana!
