Verse 3.101.6

अथात्युत्तमलाभार्थं कदाचित्समवायतः ।
विबन्धवः खिन्नमुखाः शोकोपहतचेतसः ॥ ६ ॥

athātyuttamalābhārthaṃ kadācitsamavāyataḥ |
vibandhavaḥ khinnamukhāḥ śokopahatacetasaḥ || 6 ||

It happened once on a time, that these three, started together from their dreary abode (of vacuum), for the purpose of finding a better habitation somewhere else. They had no other companion with them, and were sorrowful in their minds, and melancholic in their countenances; as if they were transported from their native country.
