If that wicked Bharata obtaining this excellent kingdom, does not maintain and take care of them, being impelled by haughtiness and wicked impulses, surely shall I kill him, that wickedminded one, though he be assisted by the entire population of the three regions. Besides that worshipful Kausalya, who has made grants of many thousand villages to her servants, can maintain thousands of people like us, and has enough to maintain herself as well as my mother.
यदि दुःस्थो न रक्षेत भरतो राज्यमुत्तमम्। प्राप्य दुर्मनसा वीर गर्वेण च विशेषतः॥ तमहं दुर्मतिं क्रूरं वधिष्यामि न संशयः। तत्पक्षानपि तान् सर्वास्त्रैलोक्यमपि किं तु सा॥ कौसल्या बिभृयादार्या सहस्रं मद्विधानपि। एवं कुरुष्व यस्याः सहस्रं ग्रामाणां सम्प्राप्तमुपजीविनाम्॥ तदात्मभरणे चैव मम मातुस्तथैव च। पर्याप्ता मद्विधानां च भरणाय मनस्विनी॥
