4.22
artho hi kanyā parakīya eva tām adya saṃpreṣya parigrahītuḥ /
jāto mamāyaṃ viśadaḥ prakāmaṃ pratyarpitanyāsa ivāntarātmā //
(iti niṣkrāntāḥ sarve)
A girl is held in trust, another's treasure;
To arms of love my child to-day is given;
And now I feel a calm and sacred pleasure;
I have restored the pledge that came from heaven.
(Exeunt omnes.)
