At last vile hypocrites poisoned the mind of His Majesty against him, until his affairs fell at length into the condition of which a brief description has been given.”¹ - [Previous: v4.c15.40](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.burn-1937.v4.c15.40) - [Next: v4.c15.42](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.burn-1937.v4.c15.42) - [Up: v4.c15](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.burn-1937.v4.c15) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.burn-1937.v4.c15.41](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.burn-1937.v4.c15.41) · Pramāṇa
