Maithili to English:
ओ रामायण आ महाभारतकेँ एक सङ्ग पढ़ने छलाह; ओ मराठा सभक युद्ध समान कार्यक विवरणकेँ एक सङ्ग पढ़ने रहथि आ हुनक जवान हृदय एक सङ्ग ओहि महान प्रेरणासँ धकधकाइत छल जे हिन्दू वीरताक गाथा सबकेँ जगबैत छल।
They had read the Ramayana and the Mahabharata together; they had read together the accounts of the warlike deeds of the Mahrattas, and their young hearts had throbbed together at the noble inspiration which the stories of Hindu heroism awoke.
