यैनं हन्म्यधुना पापं चिन्तयित्वेति रूपधृक् । अन्तर्धानं गतो राम ब्रह्मणः प्रियकाम्यया॥ न च तं पुरुषं तत्र पश्यते रजनीचरः। हर्षान्नादं विमुञ्चन्वै निष्क्रामवरुणालयात्।। येनैव संप्रविष्टः स पथा तेनैव निर्ययौ॥
yainaṃ hanmyadhunā pāpaṃ cintayitveti rūpadhṛk | antardhānaṃ gato rāma brahmaṇaḥ priyakāmyayā|| na ca taṃ puruṣaṃ tatra paśyate rajanīcaraḥ| harṣānnādaṃ vimuñcanvai niṣkrāmavaruṇālayāt|| yenaiva saṃpraviṣṭaḥ sa pathā tenaiva niryayau||
English Meaning
“I shall not slay this sinner for the satisfaction of Brahmā” and assuming his own shape disappeared. And not beholding that Puruşa there, the night-ranger issued out of the abode of Varuna, shouting with joy. He went away by the way he had come.
