Rahular Itihasa / M. N. Dutt · Vana Parva Chapter 267 · Verse 8
Sanskrit Original
जयद्रथ उवाच एहि मे रथमारोह सुखमाप्नुहि केवलम्॥ गतश्रीकांश्च्युतान् राज्यात् कृपणान् गतचेतसः। अरण्यवासिनः पार्थान् नानुरोढुं त्वमर्हसि॥ नैव प्राज्ञा गतश्रीकं भर्तारमुपयुञ्जते। युञ्जानमनुयुञ्जीत न श्रियः संक्षये वसेत्॥
Jayadratha said: "All well with me; by offering us breakfast you have already done it. Come ride my chariot and be completely happy. It does not behoove you to regard the wretched sons of Pritha who are living in the forest, whose prowess has been spoiled, whose kingdom has been taken away and whose prosperity is gone. A woman of your good sense does not devote herself to a poor husband. She should follow her husband in prosperity and relinquish him when he is in adversity.
