Dhṛṣṭadyumna’s Enumeration of Assembled Kṣatriyas
Devanagari script
स तु दृष्टवैव तं राजा क्रुद्ध उत्थाय भारत । आवदविष्टो रक्षसोग्रेण इयेषात्तुं तदा मुनिम्,भारत! भयानक राक्षससे आविष्ट हुए राजा कल्माषपाद मुनिको देखते ही क्रोधमें भरकर उठे और उसी समय उन्हें खा जानेकी इच्छा करने लगे
Transliteration
sa tu dṛṣṭvaiva taṃ rājā kruddha utthāya bhārata | āvṛtāviṣṭo rākṣasogreṇa iyeṣāttuṃ tadā munim ||
Translation
Seeing that sage at once, the king—O descendant of Bharata—rose up in anger. Overpowered and possessed by a terrifying rākṣasa, he then desired to devour the muni, revealing how a ruler’s mind, when seized by violent impulses, can fall from restraint and dharma into predatory wrongdoing.
