मम मंत्रिवरा यूयं विलंबं त्यजताधुना । इत्युक्ता मंत्रिणः काष्ठं समानिन्युः क्षणेन ते

«Ihr seid meine besten Minister; legt nun jedes Zögern ab.» So angesprochen, brachten jene Minister das Holz im Nu herbei.
Narrator (quoting Śaṅkara, then describing ministers’ action)
Tirtha: Setukṣetra (Setubandha)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Ministers, addressed as the king’s best, immediately mobilize—carrying wood swiftly to prepare the blazing fire for the king’s intended act.
Loyal service responds swiftly to authority; Purāṇic narratives also highlight how haste can intensify karmic turning-points.
Setu-kṣetra (Setukhaṇḍa) remains the setting, though no explicit tīrtha praise appears in this verse.
Only the practical act of gathering wood for a fire is mentioned.
