大方便佛報恩經 1.44

1.44

"At that time, seeing that the great king was unsettled and appeared terrified, the queen stepped forward and asked: 'Great King! Today you appear terrified. For what cause are you restless in your seat, your body covered in dust, your hair disheveled, your gaze uneven, and your breath irregular, as if you have lost the kingdom, separated from your beloved, or an enemy is about to arrive—with such inauspicious signs as these? Please tell me.' The king said: 'My affairs are not for you to know.' The queen then said to the king: 'My body and the king's are two forms of a single body, like the two wings of a bird, the two feet of a body, or the two eyes of a head. Great King, why do you now say it does not concern me?' The king told the queen: 'Do you not know? Minister Rāhu has recently committed an evil rebellion; having already killed my father the king, he pursued my two elder brothers and has cut off their lifespans as well. Now his troops and horses are coming next to seize me. Now I wish to flee for my life.' He then embraced Crown Prince Sujāti and immediately set out on the road."
