Verse 14·VR 3.62.14

अथवा न गमिष्यामि पुरीम् भरत पालितम् || ३-६२-१४ स्वर्गो अपि हि तया हीनः शून्य एव मतो मम |

athavaa na gamiShyaami puriim bharata paalitam || 3-62-14 svargo api hi tayaa hiinaH shuunya eva mato mama |

Translation

"Instead, I prefer not to go to the city Ayodhya that is ruled by Bharata, because it must be comforting to one and all under his rulership, but not to me as Seetha will not be with me... else if, that end of my life occurs now and if I were to go to heaven, even that heaven will be a void to me without her... I believe so... [3-62-13b, 14a]
