Valmiki

“ Let cares of state each mind engage
To guard his royal heritage.
A monarch from his throne expelled
No better than the dead is held.
So he who cares for power and might
Must guard his realm and royal right. ”

“ The monarch bade the town be decked.
The king and Rishyas'ring elate
Entered the royal city's gate:
In front the chaplain rode.
Then, loved and honoured with all care
By monarch and by courtier, there
The glorious saint abode.
↑ The consort of Ladra, called also S'achí and Indrání.↑ The Michelia champaca. It bears a scented yellow blossom:
'The maid of India blest again to hold
In her full lap the Champac's leaves of gold.'
