My throning ne'er thine eyes shall bless,

Thy husband's wicked murderess.

Thou art not Aśvapati's child,

That righteous king most sage and mild,

But thou wast born a fiend, a foe

My father's house to overthrow.

Thou who hast made Kauśalyá, pure,

Gentle, affectionate, endure

The loss of him who was her bliss,—

What worlds await thee, Queen, for this?
