The king gave rise to grief and fear, worried that the royal succession would be severed. Thereupon he increased the serving concubines and musical performances to entertain him, but the prince took no delight in them. (The king knew that the prince wished in his heart to leave home, and feared the severance of the kingdom's succession. He then added serving maidens and supplemented them with instrumental music to give him pleasure, but the prince took no delight or joy in it.)
