The great queen, Arci, his wife, whose feet should not touch the ground, and thus was not suited to austerity, followed him to the forest
Four verses describe his wife Arci, from the time he went to the forest.
|| 4.23.20 ||
atīva bhartur vrata-dharma-niṣṭhayā
śuśrūṣayā cārṣa-deha-yātrayā
nāvindatārtiṁ parikarśitāpi sā
preyaskara-sparśana-māna-nirvṛtiḥ
Although she became thin, she did not experience pain by living like a sage, serving with determination the vows of her intent husband, taking pleasure in his respect and touch of his hand.
The vows consisted of sleeping on the earth as well as hearing and chanting. Living like a sage means living off forest roots. She was blissful by the respect he gave her and the touch of his hand while doing service.
|| 4.23.21 ||
dehaṁ vipannākhila-cetanādikaṁ
patyuḥ pṛthivyā dayitasya cātmanaḥ
ālakṣya kiñcic ca vilapya sā satī
citām athāropayad adri-sānuni
Seeing that the body of her merciful husband, master of the earth, was without life symptoms, after lamenting a little, she placed it on a pyre on a summit of a hill.
Ātmanaḥ patyuḥ means “of her husband.” He had been merciful (dayitasya), treating the earth as his daughter. She only lamented a little because she was anxious to finish the funeral rites.
|| 4.23.22 ||
vidhāya kṛtyaṁ hradinī-jalāplutā
dattvodakaṁ bhartur udāra-karmaṇaḥ
natvā divi-sthāṁs tridaśāṁs triḥ parītya
viveśa vahniṁ dhyāyatī bhartṛ-pādau
Performing the rites, taking bath in a lake, offering water to her husband of great fame, and offering respects to the thirty devatās,[14] she circumambulated the pyre three times and entered the fire while meditating on the feet of her husband.
The devatās had come to see Pṛthu and she could see them in the sky. She went around the fire three times.
