How have you come to fight us after giving us an assurance of peace. O Devas, we have not our preceptor by us and are living peacefully without weapons, and we are dressed in deer skin and tree barks and without any occupation or possessions. O Devas! We are not in a position to fight with you. We will go and seek shelter from the mother of our preceptor without offering you any resistance. We will live with her in peace and safety till the return of the sage, after which we will fight with you."—88-91. > — A Taluqdar of Oudh 1916, The Matsya Puranam - [Previous: 47.89](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.47.89) - [Next: 47.91](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.47.91) - [Up: 47](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.47) ## Translations (2) - [The Matsya Puranam](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya~en-taluqdar.47.p34) — A Taluqdar of Oudh 1916, English - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya~en-mt.47.90) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [Padmapurāṇa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.padma.1.13.230) — Vyāsa, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.47.90](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.47.90) · Pramāṇa
