rā (parikrāmati / adhikārakhedaṃ nirūpya) sarvaḥ prārthitam artham adhigamya sukhī saṃpadyate jantuḥ / rājñāṃ tu caritārthatā duḥkhottaraiva /
KING.
[Walking on, with the air of one oppressed by the cares of Government.
People are generally contented and happy when they have gained their desires; but kings have no sooner attained the object of their aspirations than all their troubles begin.
