श्रोतव्यमपि पश्यामि सुहृदां कुरुनन्दन । न कर्तव्यश्न निर्बन्धो निर्बन्धो हि सुदारुण:,कुरुनन्दन! मैं देखता हूँ कि तुम्हें अपने सुहृदोंके उपदेशको सुननेकी विशेष आवश्यकता है; अतः तुम्हें किसी एक बातका दुराग्रह नहीं रखना चाहिये। आग्रहका परिणाम बड़ा भयंकर होता है
Translation
O Kurunandana, I see that you must listen to the counsel of your well-wishing friends; therefore you should not cling stubbornly to any single demand. For insistence, indeed, brings a most dreadful result.
