कियत्पर्यवसानेयं भवतो वनवासिता ।
सत्यं कार्यं च नोऽसत्यं वक्तुं जानन्ति तापसाः ॥ ७ ॥

kiyatparyavasāneyaṃ bhavato vanavāsitā |
satyaṃ kāryaṃ ca no'satyaṃ vaktuṃ jānanti tāpasāḥ || 7 ||

How long is it that you have passed in this forester's life of yours, and what is your main object in view. Tell me the bare truth, because it is beyond the probity of an ascetic, to utter anything but the plain truth.
