rājamārge priyaṃ bhartuścikīrṣantī dvijāṅganā //

Then having heard that speech of her husband who was sick with love, she his consort, sprung of a high family, very virtuous, faithful to her husband, gathered a compact retinue, and took abundance of money, and bearing her husband on her shoulder, moved on, slow in her gait, along the high road, in the cloud-covered night, while the sky was revealed by the fitful lightning; for the brāhman lady was desirous of doing her husband pleasure.

Frederick Eden Pargiter 1888, The Mārkaṇḍeya Purāṇa
