3.19

"At that time, the great king was stricken with a severe illness, distressed and emaciated, his life in imminent danger from morning to evening. Prince Kṣānti went to inform the ministers: 'My father the king is gravely ill; what should we do now?' When the ministers heard this, anger arose in their hearts, and they replied to the prince, saying: 'The king's life will not last long. Why is this? Because the wondrous medicine we seek cannot be obtained; therefore know that his death is not far off.' When the prince heard this, distress arose in his heart, and he fainted and collapsed to the ground."
