Vardhaman :
This decision of yours is highly commendable, Yashoda. It has given me immense satisfaction and delight. [To the Chief] Let the Queen's orders be carried out forthwith. And a list of the recipients of the jewels from this necklace should be submitted to our Treasury Officer.
Police Chief:
If you permit, Sir, let the jewels be distributed by the Treasurer. I shall be present there to carry out your orders.
[The Chief of the Police lifts the necklace from the foot-rest]
Woman :
The Queen is the goddess of piety and the King is the god of virtue.
Police Chief: Now, come out lady.
Woman :
Long live the King and the Queen.
Police Chief :
Amen!
[Exeunt]
Vardhaman :
This is the prologue to my salvation.
