नाराजके जनपदे नराश्शास्त्रविशारदाः | संवदन्तोऽवतिष्ठन्ते वनेषूपवनेषु च || २-६७-२६
In a country with no king people proficient in scriptures can not stay to the forests and (recreational) gardens for debates (on scriptures). [2-67-26]
In a country where there is no king, people who are disciplined in spiritual practices do not offer garlands of flowers, sweetmeats and alms while worshipping gods. [2-67-27]
In a country where there is no king, the princes, anointed with sandal paste and agaru, no longer look graceful like blossoming trees in spring time. [2-67-28]
ध्वजो रथस्य प्रज्ञानं धूमो ज्ञानं विभावसोः | तेषां यो नो ध्वजो राजा स देवत्वमितो गतः || २-६७-३०
The pennant is an identification for one's chariot. Smoke is a mark of identifying fire. All of us are recognised by the pennant (magnanimity) of the king and such a king has gone to heaven. [2-67-30]
