द्विजदम्पती ऊचतुः ।। पाहि पाहि महाराज नावुभौ धर्मवित्तम ।। एष आयाति शार्दूलो जग्धुमावां महाप्रभो ।। १३ ।।
The brahmin couple said:— O great king, O foremost of the knowers of virtue save us both. O great lord, this tiger is rushing on in order to devour us.
This beast of prey is like the god of death. It is terrifying to all living beings. Knower of virtue that you are save us before it pounces on us and devours us.
