Verse 5·VR 2.39.5

न तु एव अनागते काले देहाच् च्यवति जीवितम् | कैकेय्या क्लिश्यमानस्य मृत्युर् मम न विद्यते || २-३९-५ मो अहम् पावक सम्काशम् पश्यामि पुरतः स्थितम् | विहाय वसने सूक्ष्मे तापस आच्चादम् आत्मजम् || २-३९-६

ekasyaaH khalu kaikeyyaaH kR^ite ayam klishyate janaH | sva arthe prayatamaanaayaaH sa.nshritya nikR^itim tvimaam || 2-39-7

Translation

"life does not decamp from the body surely without the arrival of time. Death does not claim me, even being tormented by Kaikeyi and eventhough I behold my son, efflugent as fire, standing before me clad in the robes of an ascetic having cast off his fine garments."
