so 'yaṃ kimātmadoṣeṇa mama doṣaṇa vā mune /
asmadduḥ khavaho jāto dauḥ śīlyād bandhuśokadaḥ //

Ṛtavāc spoke:
Keeping my religious vows strictly I learned the Vedas formerly according to precept; after acquiring the Vedas I married a wife according to precept. Along with my wife, the rites to be performed, those enjoined by revealed religion, those enjoined by tradition, the oblations made in fire with the exclamation vaṣaṭ, I have never failed to perform to the full unto this day, O great muni. Following the ordinances prescribed concerning conception, without gratifying[2] my lust and in order to have a son, I begot this son, I who fear the hell named Put, O muni. Is it through his own fault or through my fault, that this son has been born, bringing suffering on us and causing grief to his kinsmen by his bad disposition, O muni?
