Note on the transliteration:
The transliteration system of the BP/TLB is based on the Unicode/UTF-8 system. However, there may be difficulties with some of the letters – particularly on PC/Windows-based systems, but not so much on the Mac. We have chosen the most accepted older and traditional systems of transliteration against, e.g, Wylie for Tibetan, since with Unicode it is possible, in Sanskrit and Tibetan, etc., to represent one sound with one letter in almost all the cases (excepting Sanskrit and Tibetan aspirated letters, and Tibetan tsa, tsha, dza). We thus do not use the Wylie system which widely employs two letters for one sound (ng, ny, sh, zh etc.).
 
Important:
We ask you in particular to note the use of the ’ apostrophe and not the ' representing the avagrāha in Sanskrit, and most important the ’a-chuṅ in Tibetan. On the Mac the ’ is Alt-M.

[32] Smitten with grief, the pain of which became the more intense the more she did not behold the lad Suvarṇavarṇa, and lamenting aloud, the wife of the caravan leader, fell at the feet of each person and, with folded palms, requested:  "Help me, help me. Quick, give me the opportunity that the lad is not taken past by this road.  The lad, Suvarṇavarṇa, my son, is being taken along this road. Please do me the favour of allowing me to see him."  Not getting an opportunity there, she threw herself prostrate upon the ground, saying: "Alas, why, sirs, do I not get my son?"  Then like a female fish taken out of the water, she began to turn over and over upon the ground.  Like a female osprey robbed of its young, she lamented quite pitifully.  She cried out with manifold cries of Lamentation Like a cow [with its manifold bellowing] that had Lost its calf.  "Alas! my son. Alas! dear and charming one! Alas! Loved one! Alas! agreeable one!  Alas! one obtained with a hundred wishes! Alas handsome one! charming one! pleasant one! Alas! one endowed with all major and minor Limbs!  Alas! one possessed of an excellence of complexion, the colour of purified gold!  Alas! captivator of the eyes and minds of all people! Alas! one dear to all people! Alas! giver of delight to the eyes!  Alas! learned one! well-behaved one! proficient one! one that speaks what is agreeable to the mind! Alas! compassionate one! lover of righteousness! dear to living beings! Alas! the illuminator of my family!  Alas! the light of my family! Alas! the darling of my heart! Alas! the entirety of my heart! Alas! the aggregate of my essence! Alas! the ambrosia of my eyes!  Alas! the bond of my joy! Alas! the entirety of my family!  Alas! without investigation and helpless, how is he thus taken away for execution!"
