अयोध्याकाण्डम्/सर्गः_६३2.63.p05043

Sanskrit · 2.63.p05043

सम्स्तभ्य धैर्येण स्थिरचित्तो भवाम्यहम् । ब्रह्महत्याकृतम् पापम् हृदयादपनीयताम् ॥२-६३-५२॥

Steadying myself through courage, I become firm-minded. Let the sin caused by the killing of a Brahmin be removed from my heart.

अयोध्याकाण्डम्/सर्गः_६३2.63.p05044

Sanskrit · 2.63.p05044

न द्विजातिर् अहम् राजन् मा भूत् ते मनसो व्यथा । शूद्रायाम् अस्मि वैश्येन जातः जन पद अधिप ॥२-६३-५३॥

English · Meaning

I am not twice-born, O king; let there be no anguish in your mind. I was born from a Śūdra woman by a Vaiśya, O lord of the people and realm.

2.63.p050443 / 8
अयोध्याकाण्डम्/सर्गः_६३2.63.p05045

Sanskrit · 2.63.p05045

इति इव वदतः कृच्च्रात् बाण अभिहत मर्मणः । विघूर्णतो विचेष्टस्य वेपमाचस्य भूतले ॥२-६३-५४॥

English · Meaning

As he spoke thus, as it were, with difficulty—his vital part struck by an arrow—he was reeling, struggling, and [वेपमाचस्य, an unresolved form] on the ground. The exact sense of वेपमाचस्य is uncertain; it may be intended to convey trembling.

2.63.p050454 / 8
अयोध्याकाण्डम्/सर्गः_६३2.63.p05046

Sanskrit · 2.63.p05046

तस्य तु आनम्यमानस्य तम् बाणम् अहम् उद्धरम् । तस्य त्वानम्यमानस्य तम् बाणामहमुद्धरम् ॥२-६३-५५॥

English · Meaning

As he was bending over, I withdrew that arrow from him. But as he was bending over, I withdrew that arrow from him. The second line is a transmitted variant with sandhi and compressed word division.
