Always following the duties of Kshatriyas, endued with courage, well read in the Vedas and their branches, all of them have attained to that blissful region which is obtainable by heroes. You should not grieve for them after hearing those high-souled kings of Earth, of ancient days, that departed from this world.
क्षत्रधर्मरताः शूरा वेदवेदाङ्गपारगाः। प्राप्ता वीरगतिं पुण्यां तान् न शोचितुमर्हसि॥ मृतान् महानुभावांस्त्वं श्रुत्वैव पृथिवीपतीन्।
