Duḥṣantasya Vana-praveśaḥ
King Duḥṣanta’s Entry into the Forest Hunt
सम्पूजितो मघवता वसुश्नैदी श्वरो नृप: । पालयामास धर्मेण चेदिस्थ: पृथिवीमिमाम्,इन्द्रके द्वारा उपर्युक्त रूपसे सम्मानित चेदिराज वसुने चेदिदेशमें ही रहकर इस पृथ्वीका धर्मपूर्वक पालन किया
sampūjito maghavatā vasuśnaidīśvaro nṛpaḥ | pālayāmāsa dharmeṇa cedisthaḥ pṛthivīm imām ||
マガヴァット(インドラ)により正しく礼敬されたその王—ヴァスたちの主にしてシュナイディの系譜の君—はチェーディの地にとどまり、この大地をダルマにかなって治め、正しき秩序を公正な統治によって支えた。
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Legitimate kingship is measured by dharma: even when a ruler receives divine honour, his true worth is shown in protecting the realm justly and maintaining moral order.
Vaiśampāyana states that King Vasu, honoured by Indra, stayed in the Cedi country and ruled the earth/kingdom righteously, emphasizing his reputation as a dharmic sovereign.
