(1870s)
“ Thy husband's will, O Queen, obey, And be the people's hope and stay. O, do not, urged by follv, draw The king to tread on duty's law, The lord who all the world sustains, Bright as the God o'er Gods who reigns. ”
Valmiki,
The Ramayana of Valmiki — Canto XXXV: Kaikeyí Reproached
(1870s)
“ Mahendra's peer in mightiness, Firm as the mountain's rooted steep, Enduring as the Ocean's deep. Despise not Das'aratha, he Is a kind lord and friend to thee. A loving wife in worth outruns The mother of ten million sons. ”
