madrājyenāsukhī kaścinna daridro na cāturaḥ.
nābhūṣito na codvigno nasragādi vivarjitaḥ .. 246.27 ..

There are in my kingdom no poor, unhappy suffering agitated, angry people nor those void of ornaments garland, etc All my people are contented strong and happy I am happy in every way Through your favour I have got such an opportunity of giving a gift to such an worthy personage! If I sow the seed of my gift in the receptacle of the Lord Viṣṇu, what will remain for me to achieve? If the Devas prosper by virtue of my gift, even then I shall have tenfold benefit This is indeed an opportunity to win eternal fame All the objects are attained by the sight of Lord Viṣṇu what can be greater bliss to me than the acquirement of the Lord s grace?—27 32
