THE MAHABHARATA
'पितृतः प्राप्तवान् राज्यं पाण्डुरात्मगुणैः पुरा ।
स ए
अवज्ञाता भविष्यामः, परपिण्डोपजीविनः ।
न भवेम यथा राजंस्तथा नीतिर्विधीयताम् ॥
"In the past, Pandu, by his qualities,
inherited the kingdom from his father and
if this Yudhisthira, son of Pandu, obtains
the inheritance of Pandu, we shall become
despised (creatures). Let such a policy be
adopted, o king, that we shall not have
to live at the mercy of others.

'यदि त्वं हि पुरा राजन्निदं राज्यमवाप्तवान् ।
ध्रुवं प्राप्स्याम च वयं राज्यम
66
"King, if you had secured this kingdom
previously, we should get the kingdom for
certain, even if the people are not under
our control."
