Seeing the four Kumāras, Pṛthu Mahārāja was greatly anxious to receive them. Therefore the King, with all his officers, very hastily got up, as anxiously as a conditioned soul whose senses are immediately attracted by the modes of material nature. ।। 4-22-3 ।।
english translation
चारों कुमारों को देखकर पृथु महाराज उनके स्वागत के लिए आतुर हो उठे। अत: अपने पार्षदों सहित वे तुरन्त इस तरह तेज़ी से उठ कर खड़े हो गये मानो कोई बद्धजीव प्रकृति के गुणों द्वारा तुरन्त आकृष्ट हो उठ़ा हो। ।। ४-२२-३ ।।
