प्रतिज्ञां दुष्करां कृत्वा पितुरर्थे कुलस्य च । अराजा चोर्ध्वरेताश्च यथा सुविदितं तव । प्रतीतो निवसाम्येष प्रतिज्ञामनुपालयन्॥५-१४५-१९॥

Having made a hard vow for my father’s sake and for the sake of the lineage—remaining without kingship and keeping the vow of celibacy, as you well know—I live accordingly, faithfully upholding that pledge.
