English Translation

"Waking up in a moment tormented with grief, the king began to ponder once again.

Note: Dasaratha recalls the past he had shot an arrow at a hermit boy while he was filling a pot with water, mistaking the sound to be that of an elephant -- Dasaratha realizes the unintentional mistake in killing the boy."
