श्रीराम उवाच ।
बोध एव यदाहंत्वमेति बोधान्यता तदा ।
कुत एषा परेऽनन्ते नासावतिजलेऽमले ॥ ४४ ॥

śrīrāma uvāca |
bodha eva yadāhaṃtvameti bodhānyatā tadā |
kuta eṣā pare'nante nāsāvatijale'male || 44 ||

Rama rejoined:—But how do you feel your finite selves or egoism, and your limited knowledge, as same with the infinite soul and omniscience of the deity; unless it were to ascribe your imperfections to the transcendental divinity, who is purer than the purest water, and rarer than the rarefied ether.
