चमा था ऐसा पवनंजय भावपूर्वक सिद्ध परमेष्ठीको नमस्कार कर. समस्त बन्धजनोंसे पछकर. गरुजनोंका अभिवादन कर तथा भक्तिसे नम्रीभत समस्त परिजनसे वार्तालाप कर मन्द-मन्द हंसता हुआ घरसे निकला ||७९-८१॥ उसने स्वभावसे हो सर्वप्रथम दाहिना पैर ऊपर उठाया था । बारबार फड़कती हुई दाहिनी भुजासे उसका हर्ष बढ़ रहा था ।।८२॥ और जिसके मुखपर पल्लव रखे हुए थे ऐसे पूर्णकलशपर उसके नेत्र पड़ रहे थे। महलसे निकलते ही उसने सहसा अंजनाको देखा ।।८३।। अंजना द्वारके खम्भेसे टिककर खड़ी थी, उसके नेत्र आँसुओंसे आच्छादित थे, कमरको सहारा देनेके लिए वह अपनी भुजा नितम्बपर रखती भली थी पर दुर्बलताके कारण वह भुजा नितम्बसे नीचे हट जाती थी ।।८४॥ पानकी लालीसे रहित होनेके कारण उसके ओठ अत्यन्त धूसरवर्ण थे और वह ऐसी जान पड़ती थी मानो उसी खम्भेमें उकेरी हुई एक मैली पुतली ही हो ।।८५।।
तदनन्तर मनुष्य जिस प्रकार बिजलीपर पड़ी दृष्टिको सहसा संकुचित कर लेता है-उससे दूर हटा लेता है उसी प्रकार पवनंजयने अंजनापर पड़ी अपनी दृष्टिको शीघ्र ही संकुचित कर लिया तथा कुपित होकर कहा कि ||८६।। हे दुरवलोकने ! तू इस स्थानसे शीघ्र ही हट जा। उल्काकी तरह तुझे देखनेके लिए मैं समर्थ नहीं हूँ॥८७।। अहो, कुलांगना होकर भी तेरी यह परम धता है जो मेरे न चाहनेपर भी सामने खडी है। बडी निर्लज्ज है॥८८| पवनंजयके उक्त वचन यद्यपि अत्यन्त क्रूर थे तो भी जिस प्रकार चिरकालका प्यासा मनुष्य प्राप्त हुए जलको बड़े मनोयोगसे पीता है उसी प्रकार अंजना स्वामीमें भक्ति होनेके कारण उसके उन क्रूर वचनोंको बड़े मनोयोगसे सुनती रही ।।८९।। उसने स्वामीके चरणोंमें नेत्र गड़ाकर तथा हाथ जोड़कर कहा। कहते समय वह यद्यपि प्रयत्नपूर्वक वचनोंका उच्चारण करती थी तो भी बार-बार चूक जाती थी, चुप रह जाती थी, अथवा कुछका कुछ कह जाती थी ॥९०।। उसने कहा कि हे नाथ ! इस महलमें रहते हुए भी मैं आपके द्वारा त्यक्त हूँ फिर भी 'मैं आपके समीप ही रह रही हूँ' इतने मात्रसे ही सन्तोष धारणकर अब तक बड़े कष्टसे जीवित रही हूँ ॥९१।। पर हे स्वामिन् ! अब जब कि आप दूर जा रहे हैं निरन्तर दुःखी रहनेवाली मैं आपके सद्वचनरूपी अमृतके स्वादके बिना किस प्रकार जीवित रहूँगी ? ॥९२।। हे प्रभो! परदेश जाते समय आपने स्नेहसे आई चित्त होकर १. निष्ट्रयमाणापि म. । २. भुवनेऽत्र म. । ३. सेवकगणस्यापि ।

With eyes filled with tears, and fearing the destruction of auspiciousness, he was kissed by his parents who were showering blessings. ||8|| He asked after all his relatives, greeted them all with a smile, and, bowing down, honored his devoted followers in their entirety. ||8|| By nature, he raised his right foot first. His right arm kept twitching with joy. ||82|| His eyes fell upon a full pitcher with leaves on its mouth, as he was leaving the palace. He suddenly saw Anjana. ||83|| Anjana was standing leaning against the doorpost, her eyes filled with tears. She was supporting her waist with her arm, but due to weakness, her arm kept slipping down. ||84|| Her lips were very pale, devoid of the redness of betel nut, and she looked like a dirty doll carved into the very pillar. ||85||
Then, just as a man quickly averts his gaze from lightning, Pavananjay quickly averted his gaze from Anjana. He was angry and said, ||86|| "O you who look far away! Quickly leave this place. I am not capable of looking at you, like a meteor." ||87|| "Oh, what great audacity you have, being a woman of noble lineage, to stand in front of me even when I don't want you to. You are very shameless." ||88|| Although Pavananjay's words were very harsh, Anjana, being devoted to her husband, listened to them with great attention, just as a thirsty man drinks water that he has received after a long time. ||89|| With her eyes fixed on her husband's feet, and her hands folded, she said. Although she tried to speak clearly, she kept stumbling, becoming silent, or saying something else altogether. ||90|| She said, "O Lord! Even though I am living in this palace, I am abandoned by you. Still, I have been living with great difficulty, finding satisfaction in the mere fact that I am near you." ||91|| "But O Lord! Now that you are going far away, how will I, who am constantly in sorrow, live without the taste of your nectar-like words?" ||92|| "O Lord! While going to a foreign land, you have spoken to your servants with affection, even though they are not deserving. ||93||
Salute the supreme Siddha, Pavananjay, with devotion. After bidding farewell to all your relatives, greet your elder brothers, and converse with all your followers with devotion, smiling gently, and leave the house. ||79-81|| By nature, he raised his right foot first.
