26.15

āpṛcche tvāṃ gamiṣyāmi śivamastvatha me pathi
avirodhena dharmasya smartavyo 'smi kathāntare
apramattodyatā nityam ārādhaya guruṃ mama //

Kacha said:—“O, Pious one! You ask me to enter into an engagement which is so improper. You are greater even than the preceptor. Be pleased, O moon-faced! I have also lived in the stomach of Śukra where you had also lived; in this way you are lawfully my sister. I passed my days in comfort here. I have committed no fault, am not angry with you at your illegal proposal. Now I take leave of you; wish me a happy journey. You may think of me in connection with anything which may be in conformity with Dharma. You should always adore my preceptor with constant attention.”—12-16.
