O handsome maiden, I tell you the truth. You deserve all this. I promise to do what you ask. So saying, the royal sage, (Dushyanta) married the beautiful Shakuntala of graceful walking, according to the due rites; and she accepted him as her husband. He returned to his capital after assuring her of his promise. He repeatedly told her, “I shall send for you my troops of the four sorts. O beauty of sweet smiles, it is thus (with all honour). I shall take you to my capital."
