"The speech of (the poet) Mayūra destroys the pride of the poets, when it comes within reach of their ears, just as the peacock science against poison (destroys the pride) of the snakes (when it comes within reach of their ears)"; *Cf. G. P. Quackenbos*, The Sanskrit Poems of Mayūra, CUIS 1917, Intron., p. 5.
