महीपतिः lord of the earth, इति in this way, सान्त्वपूर्वमिव as though in appealing tone, अर्थवत् meaningful, तस्य वचः his words, श्रुत्वा having heard, भूयः एव again, शोकेन in grief, अभ्यकीर्यत was pervaded.

Hearing these meaningful words of Sumantra uttered in an appealing tone, the lord of the earth relapsed into grief.
