*prakṛtaya ūcuḥ
yaḥ putro guṇasampanno mātāpitrorhitaḥ sadā
sarvaṃ so 'rhati kalyāṇaṃ kanīyānapi sa prabhuḥ //

Then the Commons (Prakṛiti) all assembled there cried out in a chorus: “Indeed, the son, endowed with all the good qualities and who obeys the mandates of his parents, deserves being proclaimed a sovereign, in spite of his being the youngest. O king! Puru, who has done you a good turn, appropriately deserves the kingdom and the sage Śukra has also said so: therefore nothing need now be said about this.”—26-27.
