चूडालोवाच ।
आस्तामेषा कथा तावत्सर्वं ते वर्णितं मया ।
त्वं मे कथय हे साधो कस्त्वमद्रौ करोषि किम् ॥ ६ ॥

cūḍālovāca |
āstāmeṣā kathā tāvatsarvaṃ te varṇitaṃ mayā |
tvaṃ me kathaya he sādho kastvamadrau karoṣi kim || 6 ||

Chudala said:—Please put a stop, sir, to these words of yours, and give me an account of yourself as I have given mine to you; and tell me who you are, and what you do in this lonely mountain.
