She was always devoted to her husband and busy with worship of the gods. Once, dear one, a brahmin came, hungry and weak.
Classical view, not medical advice.
अन्नं च याचयामास लम्पटं प्रति वत्सले ॥
He asked the lecher for food, loving one. The lecher spoke harsh words to the weak beggar.
आत्मघातः कृतस्तेन दुर्बलब्राह्मणेन च ॥
The weak brahmin killed himself. After a long time the thief died too.
पातिव्रत्येन तत्पत्न्याः सत्यलोकं जगाम सः ॥
Through his wife's faithfulness he went to Satyaloka (the world of truth). He lived in heaven for many thousands of years, dear one.
