Traducción

All the people gathered there asked the elderly brāhmaṇa, “If you have already promised to give him your daughter in charity, why are you not fulfilling your promise? You have given your word of honor.”

Todos los allí reunidos preguntaron entonces al brāhmaṇa mayor: «Si has prometido que le darías en caridad la mano de tu hija, ¿por qué no cumples tu promesa? Has dado tu palabra de honor.»
