दमयन्त्य् उवाच
मां चेद् इच्छसि जीवन्तीं मातः सत्यं ब्रवीमि ते ॥
नरवीरस्य वै तस्य नलस्यानयने यत ॥
बृहदश्व उवाच
दमयन्त्या तथोक्ता तु सा देवी भृशदुःखिता ॥
बाष्पेण पिहिता राजन् नोत्तरं किं चिद् अब्रवीत् ॥
तदवस्थां तु तां दृष्ट्वा सर्वम् अन्तःपुरं तदा ॥
हाहाभूतम् अतीवासीद् भृशं च प्ररुरोद ह ॥
ततो भीमं महाराज भार्या वचनम् अब्रवीत् ॥
दमयन्ती तव सुता भर्तारम् अनुशोचति ॥
अपकृष्य च लज्जां मां स्वयम् उक्तवती नृप ॥
प्रयतन्तु तव प्रेष्याः पुण्यश्लोकस्य दर्शने ॥
तया प्रचोदितो राजा ब्राह्मणान् वशवर्तिनः ॥
प्रास्थापयद् दिशः सर्वा यतध्वं नलदर्शने ॥
ततो विदर्भाधिपतेर् नियोगाद् ब्राह्मणर्षभाः ॥
दमयन्तीम् अथो दृष्ट्वा प्रस्थिताः स्मेत्य् अथाब्रुवन् ॥

Damayantī said: "Mother, if you wish me to live, I tell you the truth: strive to bring back that hero, Nala." Hearing this, the queen was struck with deep sorrow; tears choked her voice, and she said nothing in reply. Seeing Damayantī in such a state, the whole inner palace broke into lamentation. Then the queen spoke to King Bhīma: "Your daughter Damayantī grieves for her husband. Casting aside shame, she herself told me: let your servants strive to find Puṇyaśloka." Urged on by her, the king sent forth obedient brāhmaṇas in every direction: "Strive to see Nala." Before setting out, the foremost of the brāhmaṇas came to Damayantī and said, "We are departing."

Damayantī no longer waits passively. Fidelity turns into a strategy of search: she sets the royal household itself into motion.
