Nothing unless by destiny. Why else, Seeing that never have I wrought one wrong, From childhood's hours, in thought or word or deed, Hath this woe chanced ? May be — meseems it may ! The mighty gods, at my Swayamvara Slighted by me for Nala's dearest sake. Are wroth, and by their dread displeasure thus To loss and loneliness I am consigned ! " So — woe-begone and wild — this noble wife, Deserted Damayanti, poured her griefs : And afterwards, with certain Brahmanas Saved from the rout, — good me...n who knew the Veds, • Sadly her road she finished, like the moon That goeth clouded in the month of rain. Thus travelling long, the Princess drew at last Nigh to a city, at the evening hour. The dwelling-place it was of Chedi's Chief, The just Subahu. Through its lofty gates Painfully passed she, clad in half a cloth ; NALA AND DAMAYANTI. 133 And as she entered, — sorrow-stricken, wan, Foot-weary, stained with mire, with unsmoothed hair, Unbathed, and eyes of madness, — those who saw, Wonciered and stared, and watched her as she toiled Down the long city-street.
