I am gratified (with thee) and honoured (by thee). Let it be as thou wishest. I grant thee permission, fight and obtain victory. Speak, O hero, for what hast thou any need? What shalt I give thee? Under these circumstances, O king, battle excepted, what dost thou desire? A man is the slave of wealth but wealth is no one's slave. This is true, O king. Bound I have been with wealth by the Kauravas, O nephew, it is for this that I am speaking to thee like a eunuch,--I will accomplish the desire thou mayst cherish. Battle excepted, what dost thou wish.' > — Kisari Mohan Ganguli 1883, The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa - [Previous: 6.41.74](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.6.41.74) - [Next: 6.41.76](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.6.41.76) - [Up: 6.41](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.6.41) ## Translations (1) - [The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa~en-ganguli.6.43.30) — Kisari Mohan Ganguli 1883, English ## Other recensions (2) - [Southern recension](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa*southern.6.43.82) — Sanskrit - [Vulgate (Nīlakaṇṭha's text)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa*vulgate.6.43.80) — Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.6.41.75](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.6.41.75) · Pramāṇa
