THE RAMAYANA
the fourth now comes into view.
कार्ये कर्मणि निर्दिष्टे यो बहून्यपि साधयेत् ।
पूर्वकार्याविरोधेन स कार्
When a task has been allotted, he who
performs several others also without
prejudice to the first task, is indeed a fit
person for the accomplishment of the task.
न ह्येकः साधको हेतुः स्वल्पस्यापीह कर्मणः ।
यो ह्यर्
Even to a small task in this world, no
single item is enough for full accomplish-
ment. Therefore he who seeks his purpose
in many ways will succeed in accomplish.
ing it.
इदमस्य नृशंसस्य नन्दनोपममुत्तमम् ।
वनं विध्वंसयिष्यामि शुष्कं वनमिवानलः ।
अस्मिन् भग्ने ततः कोपं करिष्यति दशाननः ॥
I will destroy the excellent garden of
the wicked Rakshasa, equal to Nandana,
even as fire destroys a dry jungle. When
this is ruined, the ten-faced Ravana will
become angry."
