2 - Verse 131-132

“O Dusyanta, the mother is but a leathern pouch ( or bellows) . The son belongs to the father. He is identical with him by whom he is begotten. Sakuntala tells the truth. Maintain your son. O lord of men, he who discharges the semen virile redeems the son from the abode of Yama. You are the progenitor of this child in the womb. Do not dishonour Sakuntala”.
