714. The bluish blade of the sword with pearl-clusters clinging to it, when being withdrawn, looks like the blue cloud (corresponding with the sword) showering hail-stones (5995) whitish like pearls.
715. The seals, stamped on his edicts in red vermilion (façt), are welcomed by his servants as symbols of the King's love and received by his enemies as the red glow of the fire of his wrath.
716. If, as is supposed that Laksmi or Royal Glory resides on your right (9137T) arm, how can she, at the same time, be dwelling on your sword ? - Ah ! I know (Afori) now. What we find inside the sword is just her reflection, cast from the arm in the shining blade of the sword held in the same hand.
717. The merits, some men have, do not become known to the large mass of the people, unless the King has shown his recognition of them in the form of special honours and decorations (FhTrafa3t) bestowed on these men.
718. This is not the first time that you have been forced to knit your eye-brows in angry frowns against your enemies, when they bowed and touched your foot-stool with their heads, filled with the fear, as it were, of their guilt. There have been several such occasions in the past.
719. The captive women are continuously shedding copious tears flowing in streams over their long and loosened creeper-like tresses of hair from their heads resting on their beds and they reach the ground down below, thus giving the idea that these creepers in the form of the long tresses of hair have their roots (#4457317) down in the ground-soil.
720. Lakşmi is like a young girl. How can she find pleasure in staying with men who are effeminate, having no manhood? And yet what can she do ? All (FET) women somehow have to tolerate the situation (E3THT), as it exists (578) and then in course of time they come to like it. Cf.
