Susaṃgatā | [To herself] Alas, alas! His heart swept away by deep love, the master has begun to speak incoherently. So it is not right to disregard [this] any longer. Well, let it be so for now. [Aloud] Friend, he for whose sake you came stands here right before you!
Sāgarikā | Indignantly: Susaṃgatā, for whose sake did I come?
Susaṃgatā | Laughing: Ah, you who suspect something else! Why, for the sake of the picture board! So take this.
Sāgarikā | Angrily: Susaṃgatā, I am not clever at such talk of yours. So I shall leave. [Wishes to go.]
Susaṃgatā | Holding Sāgarikā: O impatient one! Stand here for a moment while I take the picture board from this plantain bower and return. [Enters the plantain bower.]
Vidūṣaka | Flustered upon seeing Susaṃgatā: Ah, friend! Hide this picture board! Here indeed has come the queen's maid, Susaṃgatā.
The King covers the board with the hem of his garment.
Susaṃgatā | Approaching: Victory, victory to the master!
King | Susaṃgatā, how did you know I was here?
Susaṃgatā | Master, not only [did I know] you, but along with the picture board, the whole affair was found out by me. So I shall go and report to the queen. [Wishes to go.]
Vidūṣaka | In a whisper, with fear: Ah, everything is possible! She is indeed a talkative born slave girl. So satisfy her!
King | Well spoken! [Taking Susaṃgatā by the hand] Susaṃgatā, this is mere sport. Even so, you must not trouble the queen without reason. [Offers her an ear-ornament.]
