- **Language:** English

### [5.2.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.paes-nuniz~en-sewell.5.2.3)

One of his captains who was called Narsymgua,\[504\] who was in some manner akin to him, seeing his mode of life, and knowing how ill it was for the kingdom that he should live and reign, though all was not yet lost, determined to attack him and seize on his lands; which scheme he at once put into force. He wrote, therefore, and addressed the captains and chiefs of the kingdom, saying how bad it was for them not to have a King over them who could govern properly, and how it would be no wonder, seeing the manner of his life, if the King soon lost by his bad government even more than his father had done.
