__इस प्रकार सुनकर राजा समुद्रविजयने नगरके वृद्धजनोंसे कहा कि यदि आप लोग हमारा हित चाहते हैं तो निर्भय होकर वह दुःख कहिए॥२४।। क्योंकि हृदयमें रहनेवाली छोटी-सी मानसिक व्यथा भी शारीरिक व्यथाके ही समान, प्राण-रक्षाका कारण जो अन्न है उसे भी छुड़ा देती है इसमें संशय नहीं है। भावार्थ-मानसिक पीड़ाके कारण मनुष्य खाना-पीना भी छोड़ देता है ।।२५।। इस प्रकार समुद्रविजयके कहनेपर प्रजाके लोग विश्वस्त हो कहने लगे। उन्होंने कहा कि हे राजन् ! हमारी विज्ञप्ति, विज्ञप्ति नहीं किन्तु दुर्विज्ञप्ति है परन्तु प्रजाके हितके लिए उसे अवश्य सुनिए ।॥२६॥ वसुदेवकुमार प्रतिदिन नगरसे बाहर निकलते हैं जिससे नगरकी स्त्रियाँ उनका रूप देखकर पागल-सी हो जाती हैं और अपने शरीरको सुध-बुध भूल जाती हैं ॥२७॥ कुमारके बाहर निकलने और भीतर प्रवेश करनेके समय स्त्रियाँ इन्द्रियोंसे रहित जैसी हो जाती हैं इसलिए वे न अन्य किसीको देखती हैं और न अन्य कुछ सुनती हो हैं ॥२८॥ स्त्रियोंके अपने करने योग्य दूसरे काम तो दूर रहें परन्तु रागान्ध होकर वे छोटे-छोटे बच्चोंके लिए स्तन देनादूध पिलाना भी भूल जाती हैं ।।२९।। हे राजन् ! यद्यपि कुमार वसुदेव, अत्यन्त सुन्दर, धीरवीर, स्वभावसे स्वच्छ हृदयके धारक, सर्वप्रकारसे विशुद्ध आत्मासे युक्त और शीलके शिरोमणि हैं ।।३०।। यह समस्तं पृथिवीतलपर किसे नहीं विदित है ? फिर भी हम क्या करें ? नगरवासियोंका चित्त उद्भ्रान्त हो रहा है ॥३१॥ हे स्वामिन् ! हम लोगोंने अपनी मनोव्यथा कही अब यहाँ जो कुछ करना उचित हो तथा जिससे नगर और कुमार दोनोंका परिणाम अच्छा हो वह आप ही कहिए ॥३२॥ राजा समद्रविजयने नगरवासियोंकी बात सुनकर चिरकाल तक अपने-आपमें उसका विचार किया, उसके बाद सबको आश्वासन देकर विदा किया और आश्वासन पाकर नगरवासी यथास्थान चले गये ॥३३।। उसो समय भाई वसुदेवने चिरकाल तक भ्रमण करनेके बाद आकर राजा समुद्रविजयको प्रणाम किया। समुद्रविजयने उनका आलिंगन कर गोदमें बैठाया और स्नेहसे मस्तक सूंघते हुए कहा कि कुमार! तुम चिरकाल तक वनके मध्य में भ्रमण करनेसे अत्यन्त थक गये हो। देखो, तुम्हारा वर्ण फीका पड़ गया है और तुम भूख-प्याससे पीड़ित जान पड़ते हो। १. शोभनपरिणामः । २. भ्रान्तोऽत्यन्तं म. । ३. परिम्लानशिरः -म. ।

Even a small mental affliction, residing in the heart, destroys food, the cause of life, there is no doubt. 25. Thus addressed by him, they, filled with confidence, said, "O king, understand this, our request is not a request, but a plea for the welfare of the people." 26. Vasudeva Kumar, constantly going out of the city, makes the women of the city, bewildered by his beauty, forget their bodies. 27. At his exit and entry, other women become senseless, they neither see nor hear. 28. Let other duties of women remain aside, even the feeding of infants, the giving of milk, is forgotten by them, blinded by passion. 29. O king, Vasudeva Kumar, the most beautiful, the wise, pure in nature, pure in all aspects, the crown of virtue, 30. is known to all on this earth. Yet, what shall we do? The minds of the city dwellers are disturbed. 31. O lord of the city, tell us what is right to do here, so that it may be beneficial to both the city and the Kumar. 32. Hearing their words, the king, after pondering for a long time, said, "So be it," and dismissed them, and they went away. 33. After wandering for a long time, the king, having come to his brother, bowed down. Embracing him, he placed him on his lap and, with affection, smelled his head. 34.

Why have you stayed away for so long?" 35.

Look, your complexion has faded, and you seem to be suffering from hunger and thirst. Why have you stayed away for so long?" 36. Just as one cannot show the pain of one's stomach by tearing it open, so too, he could not reveal his slight sorrow. 23.
Hearing this, the king, Samudravijaya, said to the elders of the city, "If you wish our well-being, tell me your sorrow without fear." 24. Because even a small mental affliction, residing in the heart, is like physical pain, it destroys food, the cause of life, there is no doubt. Meaning: Due to mental distress, a person stops eating and drinking. 25. Thus addressed by Samudravijaya, the people of the city, filled with confidence, began to speak. They said, "O king, our request is not a request, but a plea for the welfare of the people, and you must listen to it." 26.

At his exit and entry, women become like those without senses, so they neither see nor hear anything else. 28. Let other duties of women remain aside, even the feeding of infants, the giving of milk, is forgotten by them, blinded by passion. 29. O king, Vasudeva Kumar, the most beautiful, the wise, pure in nature, pure in all aspects, the crown of virtue, 30. is known to all on this earth. Yet, what shall we do?

O lord of the city, we have expressed our distress, now tell us what is right to do here, so that it may be beneficial to both the city and the Kumar. 32. King Samudravijaya, hearing the words of the city dwellers, pondered over it for a long time, then assured them and dismissed them, and they went away to their respective places. 33.

Look, your complexion has faded, and you seem to be suffering from hunger and thirst. 1. auspicious outcome. 2. very tired. 3. weary head.
