Seeing plainly what his queen and his daughter had settled on, he gladly gave her, who was his match, to that man rich in a whole company of good qualities. Satarupa, the great queen, out of love gave the two who were now married a wedding portion of great wealth: ornaments, clothes and furnishings. His daughter given to a man who matched her and his worry gone, the emperor took her in both his arms, his heart churned up with longing. Unable to bear the parting, letting the tears fall again and again, he wetted his daughter's hair with the water of his eyes, saying: Mother. My child. Taking his leave of that best of sages, and given leave, the king mounted his chariot and set out for his own city with his wife and his followers.
