And Sítá by no tears deterred,

Resolved to keep my father's word.

And thou, my noble brother, too

Shouldst keep our father's promise true:

Anointed ruler of the state

Maintain his word inviolate.

From his great debt, dear brother, free

Our lord the king for love of me,

Thy mother's breast with joy inspire,

And from all woe preserve thy sire.
