1.15
śāntam idam āśramapadaṃ sphurati ca bāhuḥ kutaḥ phalam ihāsya /
athavā bhavitavyānāṃ dvārāṇi bhavanti sarvatra //
(nepathye)
ita itaḥ sakhyau /
A tranquil spot! Why should I thrill?
Love cannot enter there
Yet to inevitable things
Doors open everywhere.--
A voice behind the scenes. This way, girls!
