3.264
yathā rāmānande-
vyarthaṃ yatra kapīndra-sakhyam api me vīryaṃ kapīnām api
prajñā jāmbavato' pi yatra na gatiḥ putrasya vāyor api |
mārgaṃ yatra na viśvakarma-tanayaḥ kartuṃ nalo' pi kṣamaḥ
saumitrer api patriṇām aviṣayas tatra priyā kvāpi me ||
As in the Rāmānanda: / “Where even my alliance with the monkey-king is useless, and even the monkeys’ valour, / where even Jāmbavat’s wisdom has no reach, nor even the son of the Wind; / where even Nala, son of Viśvakarman, cannot build a road, / and where even the arrows of Sumitrā’s son cannot reach—there somewhere is my beloved.”
3.264.p1
atra bahūpāya-sāmarthyābhāva-kathanād vicāra-viparyayaḥ spaṣṭa eva |
Here, because the incapacity of many means is stated, the reverse of vicāra (deliberation) is plain indeed.
