And by the bank their steps were led

Which the two brothers visited.

Kauśalyá with her faded cheek

And weeping eyes began to speak,

And thus in mournful tones addressed

The queen Sumitrá and the rest:

“See in the wood the bank's descent,

Which the two orphan youths frequent,

Whose noble spirits never fall,

Though woes surround them, reft of all.
