5.12.7

śocyān imāṃs tvam adhikaṣṭa-dīnān viṣṭyā nigṛhṇan niranugraho 'si /
janasya goptāsmi vikatthamāno na śobhase vṛddha-sabhāsu dhṛṣṭaḥ //

7. In having seized these pitiable and much afflicted creatures by force to do labour, thou art merciless; yet thou flatterest thyself as the protector of the people and being thus officious (presumptuous), thou dost not cut any honourable figure in the assemblies of the great men of wisdom.

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
