Sanskrit Original
तच्छ्रुत्वा दुर्मना देवी बृहस्पतिमुवाच ह॥ रक्ष मां नहुषाद् ब्रह्मंस्त्वामस्मि शरणं गता। सर्वलक्षणसम्पन्नां ब्रह्मंस्त्वं मां प्रभाषसे॥ देवराजस्य दयितामत्यन्तं सुखभागिनीम्। अवैधव्येन युक्तां चाप्येकपत्नी पतिव्रताम्॥
Hearing this speech of the evil minded one the goodness said to Brihaspati-'Protect me from Nahusha O Brahmana. I throw myself entirely under your protection. O Brahmana, do you speak of me as having all the auspicious marks on my person, as the consort of the king of the gods and so exceedingly prosperous. Before this have you spoken of me as being (ever) without widowhood, an only wife and strictly chaste.
