यथाशं कुरु सौमित्रे त्यज्य मां दुःखभागिनीम्। निदेशे स्थीयतां राज्ञः शृणु चेदं वचो मम॥

yathāśaṃ kuru saumitre tyajya māṃ duḥkhabhāginīm| nideśe sthīyatāṃ rājñaḥ śṛṇu cedaṃ vaco mama||

O Saumitri, do you carry out the orders you have received. By renouncing this wretched wight do you satisfy the King's orders. But hear, what I say.
