2.14

īrṣyayā, yathā-
kuryuḥ śastra-kathām amī yadi manor vaṃśe manuṣyāṅkurāḥ
syāc ced brahma-gaṇo' yam ākṛti-gaṇas tatreṣyate ced bhavān |
samrājāṃ samidhāṃ ca sādhakatamaṃ dhatte chidākāraṇaṃ
dhiṅ maurvī-kuśa-karṣaṇolbaṇa-kiṇa-granthir mamāyaṃ karaḥ ||

[Nirveda] from jealousy, as in:
“If these shoots of humanity in the lineage of Manu are to talk of weapons, / if this collection of individuals is to be a assembly of brāhmaṇas and you are desired among them, / [then] fie upon this hand of mine, whose knot of calluses is pronounced from drawing the bowstring and the kuśa grass, / holding the instrument of severed heads that accomplishes the ends of emperors and sacrificial firewood!”

2.14.p2

atra rāmacandra-śatānanda-viṣayerṣyā-janitena dhig iti vāg-ārambha-sūcitena svātmāvamānanena jāmadagnyasya nirvedaḥ |

Here, Jāmadagnya's world-weariness is caused by self-disparagement, which arises from envy toward Rāmacandra and Śatānanda and is indicated by his beginning to speak with "Fie!"
