Here Madri answers Kunti's reproach, clearing herself of blame. Her testimony is telling: she held her husband back "time and again", but he could not master himself. Here is both Madri's vindication and a confirmation of what came before: it was not she who brought ruin, but the irresistible passion through which fate acted ("wishing to fulfil what was destined"). Madri's humility is telling: she does not defend herself at length, but briefly and truthfully points to the truth -- she resisted, but her husband's passion and destiny prevailed. Thus the scripture lifts from Madri the shadow of the temptress: she is innocent in intent, and the tragedy came to pass through the power of kama and fate, not through her fault. And yet, as what follows will show, the noble Madri will take the blame upon herself -- not out of justice, but out of love.
