The pitiable female-elephants
aloud for their herd-chief, who was being

Unable to free itself, it thought for

'न मामिमे ज्ञातय आतुरं गजा:
कुतः करिण्यः प्रभवन्ति मोचितुम् ।

" These kinsmen of mine, the elephants,
are unable to rescue me who am in
trouble; how can the female-elephants be
able to? Nor am I also able to free
myself, caught as I am in the fatal noose
of this crocodile. I shall turn to that
Supreme Being, the greatest refuge.
