As in: / Though restrained by entreaties of the inner apartments, it sprouted without fear; / though checked by the beneficial counsel of elder ministers, it grew; / yet the tree of excess pride of enemy kings is uprooted to its very base / the moment the army of King Anapota is merely seen.
2.234.p1
atra hitopadeśānādarādhirūḍhasya pratināyaka-gatasya garvasya śāntir āmūlam unmūlyata iti vāg-ārambheṇa vyajyate |
Here, the allayment of pride residing in the rival kings, which had intensified through disregard of good counsel, is manifested by the verbal expression 'is uprooted to its very base.'
