5.27

yadi yathā vadati kṣitipas tathā
tvam asi kiṃ pitur utkulayā tvayā /
atha tu vetsi śuci vratam ātmanaḥ
patikule tava dāsyam api kṣamam //

If you deserve such scorn and blame,
What will your father with your shame?
But if you know your vows are pure,
Obey your husband and endure.

Arthur W. Ryder 1912, Shakuntala (in Kalidasa, Translations of Shakuntala and Other Works)
