Yet even on such occasions, the cooks, adorned with ear-rings, used to say,-There is abundant juice. Eat as much as you wish, but we have not as much to-day of meat as on former occasions.-When he O Srinjaya, who was far superior to you in the four principal attributes and who was purer than your son, met with death, do not grieve for your son who is dead.
तत्र स्म सूदाः क्रोशन्ति सुमृण्मणिकुण्डलाः। सूपं भूयिष्ठमश्नीध्वं नाद्य भोज्यं यथा पुरा॥ स चेन्ममार संजय चतुर्भद्रतरस्त्वया। पुत्रात् पुण्यतरश्चैव मा पुत्रमनुतप्यथाः॥
