Paragraph 39

In plain words

"Why the wish to live? After Ravana was slain, Rama and Lakshmana entered Lanka, went to Ravana's house, and saw Ravana's mother Nikasha running away. Lakshmana was astonished and said, Rama, Nikasha's whole line has been destroyed, and still she has such attachment to life. Rama had Nikasha called near and said, There is nothing to fear; why were you running away? Nikasha said, Rama! I did not run away for that—it is because I lived that I have been able to see so much of your lila—if I live longer I shall see so much more lila! That is why I wish to live.
