Nala and Damayanti and Other Poems

BOOK XXVI
34/107

Bopp connects '_visrabdha_' with '_pranaya_,' and renders them _speratas nuptias_.

I should rather join it adverbially with '_sarvam_, all;' that is, 'yours in full trust or confidence: grant me your affection.' There is something indelicate, though inartificial, in Damayanti's urging matrimony so earnestly.

WILSON.] [Footnote 37: p.11.l.8.

_--the vile noose will I endure_.

Hanging was not considered by the Hindus an undignified mode of self-destruction.
