The Recognition of Śakuntalā 4.1a4

4.1a4

ana śakyam idānīm āśvasitum / asti tena rājarṣiṇā saṃprasthitena svanāmadheyāṅkitam aṅgulīyakaṃ smaraṇīyam iti svayaṃ pinaddham / tasmin svādhīnopāyā śakuntalā bhaviṣyati /

Priyamvada. We can breathe again. When the good king went away, he put a ring, engraved with his own name, on Shakuntala's finger to remember him by. That will save her.
