O monarch! O the prince of the Nishadhas! do you go from here this day to the city of Ayodhya before Rituparna, who is most sk in the game at dice, calling yourself that you are the charioteer, Bahuka by name. That king will exchange his skill at dice for your knowledge in the management of horses.
गच्छ राजनित: सूतो बाहुकोऽहमिति ब्रुवन्। समीपमृतुपर्णस्य स हि चैवाक्षनैपुणः॥ अयोध्या नगरी रम्यामद्य वै निषधेश्वर। स तेऽक्षहृदयं दाता राजाश्चहृदयेन वै॥
