O you powerful like Indra himself, this has been declared by ancient sages conversant with the scriptural injunctions! I, also, having my eyes on the scriptures, have said the same to you. Using your intelligence, do you act in this world, O king.'
इदं हि सद्भिः कथितं विधिज्ञैः पुरा महेन्द्रप्रतिमप्रभाव। मयापि चोक्तं तव शास्त्रदृष्ट्या यथैव बुद्ध्वा प्रचरस्व राजन्॥
