Question

Oh, how dreadful that my mother had to undergo great pain. For ten months she guarded and carried me. After my birth, she took care that I should always be in dry place instead of damp, and cleaned my excretions; she gave me milk and fed me so that I have grown up. For all of this, I must repay her what I owe her, see to her feelings, be obedient to her and serve her.
