| 2502 | Chitra[ bitterly] Who drank it? |
| 2502 | Do you not know that I am no more than what you see before you? |
| 2502 | Do you not know that all over the world the royal house of the Kurus is the most famous? |
| 2502 | Has one of my slaves in a former life followed me like my good deeds into this?" |
| 2502 | Has that name only a deceitful glitter? |
| 2502 | Have I pained you, my darling? |
| 2502 | Hermit, why do you look perturbed? |
| 2502 | Is it Chitra? |
| 2502 | Is this, indeed, the end? |
| 2502 | Madana But if I take it from you how can you stand before your lover? |
| 2502 | Madana But what stern vow is thine, fair stranger? |
| 2502 | Of what could she stand in need? |
| 2502 | Of what use to her are learning and great achievements? |
| 2502 | SCENE I Chitra ART thou the god with the five darts, the Lord of Love? |
| 2502 | SCENE II Arjuna WAS I dreaming or was what I saw by the lake truly there? |
| 2502 | SCENE IV Chitra WHY do you watch me like that, my warrior? |
| 2502 | SCENE IX CHITRA and ARJUNA Chitra[ cloaked] My lord, has the cup been drained to the last drop? |
| 2502 | SCENE VIII Villagers WHO will protect us now? |
| 2502 | Surely at last the day would have come for him to look at me and wonder,"What boy is this? |
| 2502 | Tell me who in the highest of kingly lines is the supreme hero? |
| 2502 | The rarest completion of life''s desire, the first union of love was proffered to me, but was wrested from my grasp? |
| 2502 | To snatch away the cup from his lips when he has scarcely drained his first draught of pleasure, would not that be cruel? |
| 2502 | What happened after that? |
| 2502 | What have you seen in me that makes you false to yourself? |
| 2502 | Where should I achieve flower- beauty, the unsullied loveliness of a moment''s life? |
| 2502 | Who art thou and what is thy prayer? |
| 2502 | Who may this favourite of the gods be, whose fame has captured your heart? |
| 2502 | Who occupied your mind today? |
| 2502 | Whom do you seek in these dark eyes, in these milk- white arms, if you are ready to pay for her the price of your probity? |
| 2502 | Why cover your face with your hands? |
| 2502 | Why dost thou wither thy fresh youth with penance and mortification? |
| 2502 | Why regret it? |
| 2502 | Why these tears, my love? |
| 2502 | Why, what has she ever had, the unfortunate creature? |
| 2502 | With what resentful anger he must regard thee then? |
| 2502 | Would you rudely snatch yourself free and leave me? |
| 22217 | And have_ you_ not got a prize? |
| 22217 | But what is a_ dwirepha_? 22217 Could n''t we get our bathing and drinking water from there?" |
| 22217 | What is the matter with Rabi''s voice? |
| 22217 | What is this, Ruby? |
| 22217 | What was it you saw? |
| 22217 | Whatever have you been doing with yourself? |
| 22217 | Where are we going now, then? |
| 22217 | Where are you putting up for the night? |
| 22217 | Wherever did you get all these? |
| 22217 | Why did you come to us,she said,"if you must go so soon?" |
| 22217 | Why not decorate my little hill with them? |
| 22217 | Why should you get so cheap what I had to die to learn? |
| 22217 | Wo n''t you write to your father about the Russians? |
| 22217 | Among those included are found: What is Art? |
| 22217 | And what other sorrow is comparable to the state wherein darkness prevents the finding of a way out of the darkness? |
| 22217 | As it happened the melodramatic element in it fired my imagination; for had not so many been deceived by his successful imitation of the classics? |
| 22217 | Bending over me he gently laid his hand on my shoulder and tenderly inquired:"Are you not well, Tagore?" |
| 22217 | But does one write poetry to explain any matter? |
| 22217 | But how should I keep pace with him? |
| 22217 | But then did we need absolutely to understand in order to enjoy it? |
| 22217 | But where, oh, where was the rice- field on all that barren heath? |
| 22217 | But why should a grown up person, who need not read unless he pleases, bother himself so?" |
| 22217 | Could it not be somebody else? |
| 22217 | Did we quite understand"The Dream Journey"? |
| 22217 | Do n''t I know all the rooms of the house?" |
| 22217 | Had I the means to build in the place of what I might break? |
| 22217 | He looked at my half- ticket and then asked:"Is not the boy over twelve?" |
| 22217 | He must be sparing of his ladders, I opined, and questioned with a rising inflection,"And what if we put more ladders, and more, and more?" |
| 22217 | He sent for me one day and asked:"So you write poetry, do you?" |
| 22217 | How could I have brought myself to believe that anything questionable could possibly find place in the straight and upright ranks of printed letters? |
| 22217 | How could a body tell from which of the Tibetan passes the Russian host might suddenly flash forth like a baleful comet? |
| 22217 | How could there be such dismal failure within and such brilliant success outside? |
| 22217 | How often have I asked my companion,"Only tell me, is it really inside the house or outside?" |
| 22217 | How was I ever to reconcile that which remained with that which had gone? |
| 22217 | How, amidst the ringed- in seclusion of my early years, was I to get the necessary material? |
| 22217 | I went in fear and trembling but had no sooner stepped before him than he also accosted me with the question:"So you write poetry?" |
| 22217 | I would sit and wonder:"Where then can it be? |
| 22217 | If he persists, saying:_ that_ I know, but what does it all_ mean_? |
| 22217 | If, on waking one fine morning we were to find gravitation reduced to only a fraction of itself, would we still demurely walk along the high road? |
| 22217 | In my early boyhood I heard a snatch of a song: Who dressed you, love, as a foreigner? |
| 22217 | Is this uplifting of the cover of triviality from the everyday world, I wondered, due to some magic in the evening light? |
| 22217 | It was as if nature held something in her closed hands and was smilingly asking us:"What d''you think I have?" |
| 22217 | Not only was he a foreigner, but a Panjabi to boot,--what wonder he stole our hearts away? |
| 22217 | One day he had asked:"Have you, sir, seen God with your own eyes?" |
| 22217 | Says the free bird,"Among bars, where is there room to spread one''s wings?" |
| 22217 | The elders, thought I, can do whatever they please, why do they rest content with such shallow delving? |
| 22217 | The song being great in its own wealth, why should it wait upon the words? |
| 22217 | To be able to record one''s own words in indelible ink-- was that a slight thing? |
| 22217 | To stand unscreened yet unabashed, self- confessed before the world,--how could one withhold belief in the face of such supreme self- confidence? |
| 22217 | Was this interest aroused within me solely by a natural affection for my own past? |
| 22217 | What but the melody of song can tell us of the goings and comings of the unknown bird? |
| 22217 | When have we had the wherewithal to deck ourselves for the occasion and go and join in it? |
| 22217 | Where is its current, where are the waves, when does the high tide rush in from the sea? |
| 22217 | Where was the strength in me to attract the right man? |
| 22217 | Where were the men? |
| 22217 | Why do we not have such magazines now- a- days? |
| 22217 | Why the ever- busy painter is painting; when he will have done; for what gallery his pictures are destined-- who can tell? |
| 22217 | Why, oh why, had we to leave such spots behind, cried my thirsting heart, why could we not stay on there for ever? |
| 22217 | Would I like it? |
| 22217 | when would we come across it? |
| 22217 | wo n''t you listen to a poem which Rabi has written?" |
| 17711 | Art thou serene and calm and unafraid When thou considerest thy tyranny? |
| 17711 | Before what mortal eyes Was manifested the Eternal Light? |
| 17711 | But yet, Beloved One, I ask in pain When is the hour when thou wilt come again? |
| 17711 | How can I to the fisher speak my thought? |
| 17711 | How can I traffic in Love''s busy mart? |
| 17711 | How can I win that Hidden One Who sits within the secret place? |
| 17711 | How can a bird escape, deprived of wings? |
| 17711 | How did he lose his life, unhappy one? |
| 17711 | How strange the turns in Love''s unending game, For neither Lover nor Beloved lit The ever- burning flame: Whence was the spirit that enkindled it? |
| 17711 | I ask that God in justice punish me With death, if my love waver or grow less; Faithful am I indeed-- How can you comprehend such faithfulness? |
| 17711 | I had a thousand desires, for each of them I would have died, And what did I gain? |
| 17711 | I said-- Never again Canst thou forget my faithfulness to thee; She answered in disdain--What mean thy love and faithfulness to me? |
| 17711 | I, Asif, am the chief of sinners held, This dark dishonour will I not deny, But glory in my shame; Where is another sinner such as I? |
| 17711 | In idol- worship at the Temple thou Hast spent thy days, and thus thy years have run: How canst thou call thyself a Muslim now? |
| 17711 | Long to myself I said-- It will be well, When I can see her, I will tell my pain: Now she is here, what is there left to tell? |
| 17711 | Mine eyes were shut And yet I saw the shining vision gleam; Now that mine eyes are opened, know I not Was it a thought that held me-- or a dream? |
| 17711 | My heart thy words have burnt with whips of fire, Do they not burn thy lips, O Heart''s Desire? |
| 17711 | My soul cries out to thee in bitter need--When wilt thou come-- or wilt thou come indeed? |
| 17711 | Naught my desire? |
| 17711 | No light demand I make, What answer will you grant that I may live? |
| 17711 | No love was there; O Gracious One, have you forgotten too? |
| 17711 | O Weaver of Excuses, what to thee Are all the promises that thou hast made, The truth derided, and the faith betrayed, And all thy perfidy? |
| 17711 | O cruel One, when once your glances smote me, Why turn your head? |
| 17711 | Of no use is my pain to her nor me: For what disease is love the remedy? |
| 17711 | Or shall I sit in solitude apart Nursing my grief? |
| 17711 | Repent not, for repentance is in vain, And what is done is done; What shouldst thou reck of me and all my pain? |
| 17711 | Shall I or shall I not console my heart And win relief? |
| 17711 | She lightly laughed-- And so is Mazhar dead? |
| 17711 | She need not have one anxious doubt of me, She need not fear my further wanderings-- How can I flee? |
| 17711 | They say when I complain of all I bore--It is thy kismet, what would''st thou have more? |
| 17711 | Thou turnest thy face, O Beloved, I can not tell why, Art thou shy of a mirror, Beloved? |
| 17711 | To whom shall I relate The weary story of my sorrowful love? |
| 17711 | To you alone I offer up my heart, To any other what have I to give? |
| 17711 | What are these bonds that try to shackle me? |
| 17711 | What happiness is to the lover left Of peace bereft, What freedom for his captive heart remains Held in her chains? |
| 17711 | What heart is there in all the world Can bear thy cruel tyranny? |
| 17711 | What help and solace in calamity? |
| 17711 | What kind of comforter art thou to me? |
| 17711 | What matter if he die? |
| 17711 | Whence did the yearning of the soul arise, The longing to attain the Heavenly Sight? |
| 17711 | Where are repose and patience gone? |
| 17711 | Where has my childhood gone, where are its placid years? |
| 17711 | Where is my honour, held so fair? |
| 17711 | Who can live long enough To win the beauty of thy curling tress? |
| 17711 | Who hath not lingering cast Long looks behind, and in his eager breast Held many a secret yearning unfulfilled? |
| 17711 | Who taught thee for a shrine To choose a heart so desolate as mine? |
| 17711 | Why did the fragrance of the flowers outflow If not to breathe with benediction sweet Across her path? |
| 17711 | Why did the soft wind blow If not to kiss the ground before her feet? |
| 17711 | Why should the Cosmos turn its wheel of worlds If not to search for thee eternally? |
| 17711 | Why should the tireless Sun arise each morn If not to look for thee? |
| 17711 | Why shouldst thou keep from tyranny anew? |
| 17711 | Why shouldst thou not betray another one? |
| 17711 | Will naught my love avail? |
| 17711 | Wilt thou, indeed, I wonder in despair, Bring me at last what I so long have sought? |
| 17711 | You took my heart, but left my life behind: O see you not What thing you have remembered, and what thing you have forgot? |
| 17711 | how can I think the rolling Wheel of Fate Should turn to favour one so long unfortunate? |
| 6519 | And who has ever taught love to find bliss in renunciation? |
| 6519 | Because it has been named as wave, shall it no longer be considered as water? |
| 6519 | Before whom can that joy be uttered? |
| 6519 | Do you know how the moments perform their adoration? |
| 6519 | Even though the head itself must be given, why should you weep over it?" |
| 6519 | From the beginning until the ending of time, there is love between Thee and me; and how shall such love be extinguished? |
| 6519 | From what land do you come, O Swan? |
| 6519 | He dwells at the heart of all things, so why take refuge in empty desolation? |
| 6519 | He who has neither caste nor clan nor anything else-- how may I describe His glory? |
| 6519 | His palace has a million gates, but there is a vast ocean between it and me: How shall I cross it, O friend? |
| 6519 | How many are there who know the meaning of that word? |
| 6519 | How shall I find words for the beauty of my Beloved? |
| 6519 | I have wrapped the diamond in my cloak; why open it again and again? |
| 6519 | If Ram be within the image which you find upon your pilgrimage, then who is there to know what happens without? |
| 6519 | If the deep sleep of rest has come to your eyes, why waste your time making the bed and arranging the pillows? |
| 6519 | If there be lust, how can love be there? |
| 6519 | If you have not drunk of the nectar of that One Love, what boots it though you should purge yourself of all stains? |
| 6519 | If your bonds be not broken whilst living, what hope of deliverance in death? |
| 6519 | In the home is the true union, in the home is enjoyment of life: why should I forsake my home and wander in the forest? |
| 6519 | In the midst of the chamber the harp of joy is gently and sweetly played; and where is the need of going without to hear it? |
| 6519 | Is your Lord deaf? |
| 6519 | Kabîr says:"But who knows whence the Word cometh? |
| 6519 | No form, no body, no length, no breadth is seen there: how can I tell you that which it is? |
| 6519 | None knows where it is: and who knows what the burden of its music may be? |
| 6519 | O how can I say He is not like this, and He is like that? |
| 6519 | O my friend, what have you done with this life? |
| 6519 | O woman, what does it avail thee to dispute whether He is beyond all or in all? |
| 6519 | O, Kazi, O Pundit, consider it well: what is there that is not in the soul? |
| 6519 | Oh my heart, how could you turn from the smile of your Lord and wander so far from Him? |
| 6519 | Tell me, Sir, where is the distinction? |
| 6519 | Tell me, how couldst thou hold a wedding- feast, if the bridegroom himself were not there? |
| 6519 | The Mullah cries aloud to Him: and why? |
| 6519 | The Yogi dyes his garments with red: but if he knows naught of that colour of love, what does it avail though his garments be tinted? |
| 6519 | The fire is in the wood; but who awakens it suddenly? |
| 6519 | The night is over and gone, would you lose your day also? |
| 6519 | The servant Kabîr asks you to consider; who is there that shall befriend you at the last? |
| 6519 | The swan has taken its flight to the lake beyond the mountains; why should it search for the pools and ditches any more? |
| 6519 | Then it turns to ashes, and where goes the force of the fire? |
| 6519 | Then what is this love of mine? |
| 6519 | There it is ever moonlight and never dark; and who speaks of one sun only? |
| 6519 | There, there is neither body nor mind: and where is the place that shall still the thirst of the soul? |
| 6519 | This is the Ultimate Word: but can any express its marvellous savour? |
| 6519 | To whom shall I tell my sorrow? |
| 6519 | When its load was light, the pan of the balance went up: now it is full, where is the need for weighing? |
| 6519 | Where did your love have its rise?" |
| 6519 | Where dwells that Supreme Spirit, and how does He have His sport with all created things? |
| 6519 | Where knowledge is, can ignorance endure? |
| 6519 | Where would you take your rest, O Swan, and what do you seek? |
| 6519 | Who is there that will carry my news to my Beloved? |
| 6519 | Whose name do you sing, and on whom do you meditate? |
| 6519 | Why do you loose Him again and again? |
| 6519 | Why put on the robe of the monk, and live aloof from the world in lonely pride? |
| 6519 | You have slept for unnumbered ages; this morning will you not wake? |
| 6519 | You have taken on your head the burden heavy with stones, and who is to lighten it for you? |
| 6519 | Your Lord dwells within you: why need your outward eyes be opened? |
| 6519 | _ Kabîr kab se bhaye vairâgî_ Gorakhnath asks Kabîr:"Tell me, O Kabîr, when did your vocation begin? |
| 6519 | _ aisâ lo nahîn taisâ lo_ O How may I ever express that secret word? |
| 6519 | _ angadhiyâ devâ_ O Lord Increate, who will serve Thee? |

| 6519 | _ sûr parkâs'', tanh rain kahân pâïye_ Where is the night, when the sun is shining? |
| 6519 | hold on your head, how can you be light?" |
| 6519 | if you love indeed, then why do you sleep? |
| 6519 | there is no traveller before you, there is no road: Where is the movement, where is the rest, on that shore? |
| 6519 | to what shore will you fly? |
| 6520 | How can I leave her and come? |
| 6520 | Where have you been, you naughty child? |
| 6520 | A thousand useless things happen day after day, and why could n''t such a thing come true by chance? |
| 6520 | But just for to- day, tell me, mother, where the desert of Tepântar in the fairy tale is? |
| 6520 | But what is it makes you laugh, my little life- bud? |
| 6520 | But who was it coloured that little frock, my child? |
| 6520 | But would you guess that it was the tiny shadow of your little child? |
| 6520 | But, baby, where could you find a net big enough to catch the moon with?" |
| 6520 | DEFAMATION Why are those tears in your eyes, my child? |
| 6520 | Dear auntie will come with_ puja_-presents and will ask,"Where is our baby, sister? |
| 6520 | Did he never hear from his own mother stories of giants and fairies and princesses? |
| 6520 | Do n''t you know why they are in such a hurry? |
| 6520 | Do you hear the gong striking four? |
| 6520 | Do you not remember how he sat at the window and wondered at the tangle of your roots that plunged underground? |
| 6520 | Everybody knows how you love sweet things-- is that why they call you greedy? |
| 6520 | Has he forgotten them all? |
| 6520 | Have n''t you got a letter from father to- day? |
| 6520 | Have n''t you seen how eager they are to get there? |
| 6520 | He was reading to you all the evening, but could you really make out what he meant? |
| 6520 | How horrid of them to be always scolding you for nothing? |
| 6520 | How should you know how dear he can be when you try to weigh his merits against his faults? |
| 6520 | I ask,"But, how am I to get up to you?" |
| 6520 | I ask,"But, how am I to join you?" |
| 6520 | I say,"My mother always wants me at home in the evening-- how can I leave her and go?" |
| 6520 | I shall tell him,"Do you not know I am as big as father? |
| 6520 | I shall write from A right up to K. But, mother, why do you smile? |
| 6520 | If I make the slightest noise, you say,"Do n''t you see that father''s at his work?" |
| 6520 | If I were only a little green parrot, and not your baby, mother dear, would you keep me chained lest I should fly away? |
| 6520 | If twelve o''clock can come in the night, why ca n''t the night come when it is twelve o''clock? |
| 6520 | It is gnawing at its chain day and night?" |
| 6520 | Leave off your work, mother; sit here by the window and tell me where the desert of Tepântar in the fairy tale is? |
| 6520 | Mother will say,"What are you about, naughty child?" |
| 6520 | Mother, do you want heaps and heaps of gold? |
| 6520 | Mother, do you want pearls big as the raindrops of autumn? |
| 6520 | My brother would say,"Is it possible? |
| 6520 | O beggar, what are you begging for? |
| 6520 | O beggar, what do you beg for, clinging to your mother''s neck with both your hands? |
| 6520 | O greedy heart, shall I pluck the world like a fruit from the sky to place it on your little rosy palm? |
| 6520 | Our village people would all say in amazement,"Was it not lucky that the boy was with his mother?" |
| 6520 | SLEEP- STEALER Who stole sleep from baby''s eyes? |
| 6520 | SYMPATHY If I were only a little puppy, not your baby, mother dear, would you say"No"to me if I tried to eat from your dish? |
| 6520 | Suddenly you call me and ask me in a whisper,"What light is that near the bank?" |
| 6520 | Suppose it is n''t any later; ca n''t you ever think it is afternoon when it is only twelve o''clock? |
| 6520 | THE SOURCE The sleep that flits on baby''s eyes-- does anybody know from where it comes? |
| 6520 | THE UNHEEDED PAGEANT Ah, who was it coloured that little frock, my child, and covered your sweet limbs with that little red tunic? |
| 6520 | THE WICKED POSTMAN Why do you sit there on the floor so quiet and silent, tell me, mother dear? |
| 6520 | The moon is ever so far from us, how could anybody catch it?" |
| 6520 | The smile that flickers on baby''s lips when he sleeps-- does anybody know where it was born? |
| 6520 | The sweet, soft freshness that blooms on baby''s limbs-- does anybody know where it was hidden so long? |
| 6520 | What do you think of father''s spoiling sheets and sheets of paper with black marks all over on both sides? |
| 6520 | What has happened to you that you look so strange? |
| 6520 | What is it makes you laugh, my little life- bud? |
| 6520 | What magic has snared the world''s treasure in these slender arms of mine?" |
| 6520 | What then would they call us who love you? |
| 6520 | What would they call an autumn morning that smiles through its ragged clouds? |
| 6520 | What''s the fun of always writing and writing? |
| 6520 | When I finish my writing, do you think I shall be so foolish as father and drop it into the horrid postman''s bag? |
| 6520 | When mother bends her face down to kiss us does her face look very big?" |
| 6520 | When mother looks out of her window and smiles down at us playing, would you call her far away?" |
| 6520 | Where is it, mother, on the shore of what sea, at the foot of what hills, in the kingdom of what king? |
| 6520 | Who stole sleep from baby''s eyes? |
| 6520 | Who stole sleep from our baby''s eyes? |
| 6520 | Why ca n''t father write like that, I wonder? |
| 6520 | Would they dare to call the full moon dirty because it has smudged its face with ink? |
| 6520 | Would you drive me off, saying to me,"Get away, you naughty little puppy?" |
| 6520 | You have stained your fingers and face with ink while writing-- is that why they call you dirty? |
| 6520 | You tore your clothes while playing-- is that why they call you untidy? |
| 6520 | You would call,"Baby, where are you?" |
| 6520 | [ Illustration: From a drawing by Asit Kumar Haldar-- see cbegin.jpg] THE BEGINNING"Where have I come from, where did you pick me up?" |
| 31968 | Art thou all present? 31968 Look, gentle UMÁ,"cried her Lord,"afar Seest thou the brightness of yon polar star? |
| 31968 | A husband, lady? |
| 31968 | Ah, how shall I thy funeral rites prepare, Gone soul and body to the viewless air? |
| 31968 | Alas, sweet words, too blissful to be true, Or how couldst thou have died, nor RATI perish too? |
| 31968 | All nature keeps the eternal high decree: Shall woman fail? |
| 31968 | And wouldst thou still a second time prepare The sorrows of his fearful life to share? |
| 31968 | But what, O faultless one, can move thy heart To dwell in solitude and prayer apart? |
| 31968 | But why so mournful? |
| 31968 | Canst thou the grass and fuel duly bring, And still unwearied seek the freshening spring? |
| 31968 | Cold to her tender feet-- oh, cold-- the snow, Why should her steps-- her homeward steps-- be slow? |
| 31968 | Could my dearest leave His own fond RATI here alone to grieve? |
| 31968 | Dear maiden, bid yon eager boy depart: Why should the slanderous tale defile his heart? |
| 31968 | Do not the forms-- eight varied forms-- I wear, The truth of this to all the world declare? |
| 31968 | Dost thou fail to see Poor UMÁ''S anguish and her love for thee?" |
| 31968 | Foes hast thou none: for what rash hand would dare From serpent''s head the magic gem to tear? |
| 31968 | For who can gaze upon the moon, and dare To mark one spot less brightly glorious there? |
| 31968 | Has some one feared the endless change of birth, And sought the path that leads the soul from earth? |
| 31968 | Has thy love, jealous of another''s charms, Spurned thee in wrath when flying to her arms? |
| 31968 | He laid his hand upon the dress, but how Shall robes so sad, so holy, grace him now? |
| 31968 | How shall thy robe, with gay flamingoes gleaming, Suit with his coat of hide with blood- drops streaming? |
| 31968 | How should we tell what soul- entrancing bliss Enthrals our spirit at an hour like this? |
| 31968 | How wilt thou brook the mockery and the scorn When thou on[''S]IVA''S bull art meanly borne? |
| 31968 | In this thy present shape, we pray thee, say Dost thou create? |
| 31968 | Is he too sent upon death''s dreary path, Scorched by the cruel God''s inexorable wrath?" |
| 31968 | Is this the darling secret of thy breast?" |
| 31968 | Lord, who may hope thy essence to declare? |
| 31968 | Maiden, thy deep sighs tell me it is so; Yet, doubtful still, my spirit seeks to know Couldst thou e''er love in vain? |
| 31968 | O say, in vain doth mighty INDRA bear The thunderbolt of heaven, unused to spare? |
| 31968 | O''er the earth Resistless sway? |
| 31968 | One foot uplifted, shall she turn away? |
| 31968 | Or fair as Beauty''s Queen, Peerless, immortal, shall thy form be seen? |
| 31968 | Or has the ripe full beauty of a spouse, Too fondly faithful to her bridal vows, Ravished thy spirit from thee? |
| 31968 | Penance must aid her now-- or how can she Win the cold heart of that stern deity? |
| 31968 | Proudly she spoke:"How couldst thou tell aright Of one like[''S]IVA, perfect, infinite? |
| 31968 | Refuge of worlds, O how should[''S]IVA deign To look on men enslaved to paltry gain? |
| 31968 | Sad that the crescent moon his crest should be: And shall that mournful fate be shared by thee? |
| 31968 | Say who is greater, he who strives for power, Or he who succours in misfortune''s hour? |
| 31968 | Say, art thou toiling for a second birth, Where dwells the great Creator? |
| 31968 | She threw her arms around her own dear maid, Kissed, fondly kissed her, sighed, and wept, and prayed:"Are there no Gods, my child, to love thee here? |
| 31968 | So bright, so fair, so winning soft was she, Who could not conquer in such company? |
| 31968 | Sure woman''s heart is stony: can it be That I still live while this is all of thee? |
| 31968 | Sweet are those flowers as they were culled to- day, And is my KÁMA''S form more frail than they? |
| 31968 | The Trident- wielding God, who knows aright? |
| 31968 | The maiden ceased: his secret joy dissembling, The Bráhman turned to UMÁ pale and trembling:"And is it thus, or doth the maiden jest? |
| 31968 | The rounded trunk, the forest- monarch''s pride? |
| 31968 | The young tree springing by the brooklet''s side? |
| 31968 | Then say, my sons, why seek ye BRAHMÁ''S throne? |
| 31968 | They are thus explained in the_ Tattwa Samása_, a text- book of the Sánkhya school:--"Now it is asked, What is the''triad of qualities''? |
| 31968 | Though to our eyes thy outward form be shown, How can we know thee as thou shouldst be known? |
| 31968 | To what rare beauty shall her maids compare Her clear brow shaded by her glossy hair? |
| 31968 | Unknown thou call''st him: how should mortal man Count when the days of BRAHMÁ''S Lord began? |
| 31968 | Unmoved the other, shall the maiden stay? |
| 31968 | VRITRA, the furious fiend,''twas strong to slay: Why dull and blunted is that might to- day? |
| 31968 | What can their strength who draw the bow avail Against my matchless power when I assail? |
| 31968 | What heart so cold That hath not eagerly its worship told? |
| 31968 | What monarch''s fan more glorious might there be, More meet to grace a king as proud as he? |
| 31968 | What mortal being dost thou count thy foe? |
| 31968 | What need of jewels on the brow of Him Who wears the crescent moon? |
| 31968 | What thing of beauty may the poet dare With the smooth wonder of those limbs compare? |
| 31968 | What though the heat has stained the tints that dyed With marvellous bloom the heavenly minstrel''s bride? |
| 31968 | When that great warrior battles for his life, O, who may conquer in the deadly strife, Save one of[''S]IVA''S seed? |
| 31968 | Where art thou, KÁMA? |
| 31968 | Where is he now, thy darling friend, the giver Of many a bright sweet arrow for thy quiver? |
| 31968 | Who can declare the wonders of his might? |
| 31968 | Who can recall the torrent''s headlong force, Or the bold spirit in its destined course? |
| 31968 | Who,''mid a thousand virtues, dares to blame One shade of weakness in a hero''s fame? |
| 31968 | Why dost thou seek the hermit''s garb to try, Thy silken raiment and thy gems thrown by? |
| 31968 | Why lingers yet the heavenly minstrel''s bride On the wild path that skirts HIMÁLAYA''S side? |
| 31968 | Why shine your faces less divinely bright? |
| 31968 | Why should the cloud of grief obscure thy brow,''Mid all thy kindred, who so loved as thou? |
| 31968 | Wilt thou not hear me? |
| 31968 | With loving glance the timid fawns draw nigh: Say dost thou still with joy their wants supply? |
| 31968 | Wouldst thou win heaven by thy holy spells? |
| 31968 | could the cruel loved one, thou fair maid, Look with cold glances on that bright hair''s braid? |
| 31968 | dost thou preserve or slay? |
| 31968 | give One word in answer-- doth my KÁMA live?" |
| 31968 | what has dimmed your light? |
| 31968 | why should mortals fondly strive to gain Heaven and its joys by ceaseless toil and pain? |
| 31968 | why so silent? |
| 18285 | Away, blockhead, we have no occasion to rejoice; could you not discover the queen''s anger through her unsuccessful attempts to disguise it? 18285 A real person may exist in this world or how can an exact figure come here? |
| 18285 | All are happy, Why should Kuvalayamala alone be sorry? |
| 18285 | Am I a fit object for a joke? |
| 18285 | Angada laughs and observes:--"Is this thy wisdom, Ravana? |
| 18285 | Bidushaka asks his Majesty,"Was not the queen with you when you dreamt? |
| 18285 | Bidushaka remarks,"Why could not you assuage her anger?" |
| 18285 | But Earth says,"has it been proper for the good Rama? |
| 18285 | But how can I accept your offer as this body belongs to a Chandal? |
| 18285 | Can not you perceive that I have been attracted hither, and misled by the resemblance of your dress and person? |
| 18285 | Can this be true? |
| 18285 | Can you give me any tidings of Soudamini, my former pupil?" |
| 18285 | Does then the deity, whose effigy only we adore in the dwelling of my father, here condescend to accept in person the homage of his votaries? |
| 18285 | Ganga replies"who can close the door of Fate?" |
| 18285 | Has anyone carved the statue out of his fancy? |
| 18285 | He observes,"What does this mean? |
| 18285 | He thinks,"Who will carve on the wall the person I dreamed of? |
| 18285 | Her friend replies,"why should you be ashamed? |
| 18285 | Her hand is the new shoot of the_ Parijata_ tree, else whence distil these dewdrops of ambrosia?" |
| 18285 | How can I forsake my duty to my lord to save you?" |
| 18285 | How can I now retire? |
| 18285 | How rescue Sagarika from the dread of her resentment, or liberate my friend Basantaka? |
| 18285 | I can neither stand nor move-- what shall I do?" |
| 18285 | Infirm of judgement dost thou deem of Rama thus-- a mortal man? |
| 18285 | Is it Sita, or am I dreaming?" |
| 18285 | Knowest thou not this, and canst thou stoop to praise the son of Raghu, whose frail mortal body is but a meal to any of my households?" |
| 18285 | Loved sister Ratnavali, where art thou? |
| 18285 | Parasurama addresses Rama thus:--"How dost thou presume to bend thy brow in frowns on me? |
| 18285 | Rama despairs:--"My soldiers shall find protection in their caves; I can die with Sita, but thou, Vibhishana, what shall become of thee?" |
| 18285 | Sagarika thinks to herself,"What will he reply? |
| 18285 | Sagarika views the scene, mistakes the king for the god and observes,"What do I see? |
| 18285 | Satyacharya asks,"How are the scribes?" |
| 18285 | Satyacharya asks,"What then?" |
| 18285 | Satyacharya observes:"You are right, what chance is there for the good? |
| 18285 | Satyacharya says:"How now, holy sirs, how fares it with you?" |
| 18285 | She says,"How now, Sagarika, what makes you here? |
| 18285 | Siva asks,"Now, Nareda, whence come you?" |
| 18285 | Susangata sits down, puts her hand upon the picture and asks,"who is this you have delineated?" |
| 18285 | The Brahmans answer:"why, know you not the customs of the country? |
| 18285 | The friend listens and repeats,"Who is this you have delineated? |
| 18285 | The king observes,"This must have been a dream, or is it magic?" |
| 18285 | The king observes,"What can I say to you, dearest? |
| 18285 | The king replies,"What should you suspect? |
| 18285 | The king springs up and exclaims,"Where is she? |
| 18285 | The pupil asks"why is a stolen marriage intended?" |
| 18285 | The sage whirls his eyes and exclaims,"Is it a joke? |
| 18285 | The_ Kosalas_ are subdued: what other object does the world present for which I could entertain a wish? |
| 18285 | Then he approaches the queen and addresses her thus:--"Who are you? |
| 18285 | Vasantaka replies,"The latter, no doubt; did not that conjuring son of a slave say, he had still something for your Majesty to see?" |
| 18285 | What are your Majesty''s commands? |
| 18285 | What can we say of this reign? |
| 18285 | What did she do?" |
| 18285 | What firmness could resist the honest warmth of nature''s mute expressiveness? |
| 18285 | What is to be done? |
| 18285 | What is your duty?" |
| 18285 | What need of many words? |
| 18285 | What shall I do with only half the money? |
| 18285 | What should prevent your union? |
| 18285 | Who but yourself could have been delineated as the god of the flowery bow?". |
| 18285 | Why should he fear it? |
| 18285 | Why should you be ashamed? |
| 18285 | Why thus anxious to behold that form, one only view of which has inspired such painful agitation? |
| 18285 | Would you see the moon brought down upon earth, a mountain in mid air, a fire in the ocean, or night at noon? |
| 18285 | Yet the people are many; why is not such misconduct resented?" |
| 18285 | are you not yet satisfied?" |
| 18285 | chiefs and heroes, why this groundless panic, the prowess of our enemy untried in closer conflict? |
| 18285 | dost thou not blush to waste thy might upon a weak defenceless maiden, or art thou truly without form and sense? |
| 18285 | what have I got with which to make a due gift to you? |
| 18285 | where is my favourite starling, that I left to your charge, and whom it seems you have quitted for this ceremony? |
| 18285 | where is my fee? |
| 18285 | would you impose upon me with falsehoods? |
| 46531 | ( God is good and never does any evil to any one: all he does in and to himself)? |
| 46531 | ( It is true you have long forsaken the vanities of the world, but have you set your heart to seek the eternal emancipation of your soul?). |
| 46531 | ( The question is whether the affections are not causes of the palpitation of the heart?). |
| 46531 | ( Were the fair Bhringis the Fringis or Franks of modern times? |
| 46531 | And how can the soul be viewed in the plurality, when all things have been absorbed in the unity? |
| 46531 | And what is it by the avoidance of which, we avoid and forsake everything in the world? |
| 46531 | Bhusunda related:--There is in this world, the god of gods Hara( Horus?) |
| 46531 | Do n''t you yet perceive that these false creations of your imagination, are as unreal as the situation or appearance of mountains in the empty air? |
| 46531 | Do you know that these vagaries are the creatures of your avarice, and mere creations of your fancy? |
| 46531 | Have ye obtained your release from weaving the web of your desires? |
| 46531 | Have you obtained the obtainable one, that is alone to be obtained, and are you set above the fears, that incessantly hunt after all mankind? |
| 46531 | Have you seen, O sage, a wounded stag flying before me this way, with an arrow fixed in its back? |
| 46531 | How can any thing come to existence, without having its seed of the like nature? |
| 46531 | How can you call one to be a Brahman, who lifts up his arms and proclaims himself about to be a sudra? |
| 46531 | How is it that even he the holy Nárada himself, could lose his patience and countenance who leads his life of celibacy all along? |
| 46531 | I beheld the big breed of the peacocks forming the vehicles of war god;( Skanda, Alexander)? |
| 46531 | If not, then who were this class of demigods?). |
| 46531 | Instead of making inquiries in these solemn truths, you are passing your time like the ignorant in your fooleries only? |
| 46531 | Knowing neither the one nor the other to be uniform and monotonous, what is it thou callest as real pleasure or pain? |
| 46531 | Lady, said he why do you come so soon to me, and leave off the enjoyment of thy happiness? |
| 46531 | O my simple heart, why dost thou throb in vain and thrill at every vein within me? |
| 46531 | Ráma asked:--Who was this Sikhidhwaja, sir, and how did he maintain the firmness of his purpose? |
| 46531 | Say what man is there, who neglects his life and livelihood, and remains only, in his intellect? |
| 46531 | The sanskrit is frequently unclear, and in some places illegible( represented by? |
| 46531 | There why such desire, and for what good and use, and why should the dreaming man be deluded to drink the show of water in the mirage? |
| 46531 | What art thou, O lotus eyed maid, and whence comest thou to this place? |
| 46531 | When will that moonlike beauty be inflamed with her love to me? |
| 46531 | Whence comes this error of my personality, why does it grow up and where does it subsist( in the body or in the mind)? |
| 46531 | Why do n''t you discuss about the natures of bondage and liberation in the company of the learned, and pay your homage at their venerable feet? |
| 46531 | Why is it then that the dead do not perceive the objects of their sense, as well as the living who know the objects in their right manner? |
| 46531 | and oh my faithful mind, that art pure as air, why dost thou lose thy reason and right discretion? |
| 46531 | explain to me in short, how the ever existent Deity remains as non- existent, and could it come to existence from its prior state of nihility? |
| 46531 | that you delight in these false playings of fools? |
| 46531 | the lecture that I gave yesterday, which was fraught with deep sense and knowledge of transcendental truth? |
| 46531 | why comest thou here, and how long hast thou been herein? |
| 46531 | why do I wail like the ignorant( for this change in my changeful body), when my soul suffers no change by this? |
| 6686 | But if there be thorns? |
| 6686 | But if there by only cruel glances? |
| 6686 | Do you in your lonely musing hear the message of the hereafter? |
| 6686 | I am of an age with each, what matter if my hair turns grey? |
| 6686 | Who is there to weave their passionate songs, if I sit on the shore of life and contemplate death and the beyond? 6686 Youth, why do you stand so still under the shadow of the tree?" |
| 6686 | 21 Why did he choose to come to my door, the wandering youth, when the day dawned? |
| 6686 | 23 Why do you sit there and jingle your bracelets in mere idle sport? |
| 6686 | 25"Come to us, youth, tell us truly why there is madness in your eyes?" |
| 6686 | 37 Would you put your wreath of fresh flowers on my neck, fair one? |
| 6686 | 4 Ah me, why did they build my house by the road to the market town? |
| 6686 | 52 Why did the lamp go out? |
| 6686 | 53 Why do you put me to shame with a look? |
| 6686 | 54 Where do you hurry with your basket this late evening when the marketing is over? |
| 6686 | 63 Traveller, must you go? |
| 6686 | 65 Is that your call again? |
| 6686 | 7 O mother, the young Prince is to pass by our door,--how can I attend to my work this morning? |
| 6686 | 81 Why do you whisper so faintly in my ears, O Death, my Death? |
| 6686 | 85 Who are you, reader, reading my poems an hundred years hence? |
| 6686 | Ah, but, where is it? |
| 6686 | Ah, where is the sunny green shore, where is your nest? |
| 6686 | Ah, who has held me so long in delusion here?" |
| 6686 | And we asked each other in dismay,"Is there a land beyond these hills where we live?" |
| 6686 | Are you happy? |
| 6686 | But where can you shelter under this open sky? |
| 6686 | But why did you stop for a moment and glance at my face through your veil while you walked by the riverside path with the full pitcher upon your hip? |
| 6686 | But, gatekeeper, do you ask for your toll? |
| 6686 | Do the flowers never drop on the dust in soft death in your garden? |
| 6686 | Do the memories of vanished months of May linger in my limbs? |
| 6686 | Do the silent- winged stars never climb the sky above your pitiless tower? |
| 6686 | Do you call me? |
| 6686 | Do you hear, he is gently shaking the chain which fastens the door? |
| 6686 | Do you see the clouds wrapping the sky? |
| 6686 | Do you see the clouds wrapping the sky? |
| 6686 | Does the earth, like a harp, shiver into songs with the touch of my feet? |
| 6686 | God sighed and complained,"Why does my servant wander to seek me, forsaking me?" |
| 6686 | Has the evening no music of sleep at your gate? |
| 6686 | Have you not finished your work yet, bride? |
| 6686 | Have you not got ready the offering basket for the evening service? |
| 6686 | Have you not lit the lamp in the cowshed? |
| 6686 | Have you not put the red lucky mark at the parting of your hair, and done your toilet for the night? |
| 6686 | He alighted at my door and asked in a tired voice,"Where is she?" |
| 6686 | He stopped before my door and asked me with an eager cry,"Where is she?" |
| 6686 | He struck his forehead wildly-- where, O where had he without knowing it achieved success? |
| 6686 | How are you, my child? |
| 6686 | How can the body touch the flower which only the spirit may touch? |
| 6686 | How could I know that you could see me where I stood in the dark? |
| 6686 | I ask myself,"Is it a dream?" |
| 6686 | I had given all my day to you, cruel mistress, must you also rob me of my night? |
| 6686 | I weep and ask my heart,"Why does he not come back?" |
| 6686 | Is it then true that the dewdrops fall from the eyes of night when I am seen, and the morning light is glad when it wraps my body round? |
| 6686 | Is it then true that the mystery of the Infinite is written on this little forehead of mine? |
| 6686 | Is it true that my lips are sweet like the opening bud of the first conscious love? |
| 6686 | Is it true, is it true, that your love travelled alone through ages and worlds in search of me? |
| 6686 | Is it wise to break one''s heart for the one who takes her heart away? |
| 6686 | Is the time for your parting come? |
| 6686 | Is there none to carry your banner before you, and will not the night be on fire with your red torch- lights, O Death, my Death? |
| 6686 | Is this how you must woo and win me with the opiate of drowsy murmur and cold kisses, O Death, my Death? |
| 6686 | Must you call me, you unquiet one? |
| 6686 | Must your voice cut through it and smite me? |
| 6686 | O bride, do you hear, the guest has come? |
| 6686 | O traveller, what sleepless spirit has touched you from the heart of the mid- night? |
| 6686 | One day a village boy came up and asked,"Tell me, where did you come at this golden chain about your waist?" |
| 6686 | Says the free bird,"Among bars, where is there room to spread one''s wings?" |
| 6686 | She glanced at them and said,"What strange things are these? |
| 6686 | She raised her large eyes to my face and mutely asked,"Are you well, my friend?" |
| 6686 | Should I neglect all this to gaze after one who has turned her back on me? |
| 6686 | That when you found me at last, your age- long desire found utter peace in my gentle speech and my eyes and lips and flowing hair? |
| 6686 | The man said,"Who are ye that have fooled me so long?" |
| 6686 | Traveller, must you go? |
| 6686 | We asked in wonder,"Who are you?" |
| 6686 | We wondered in our mind,"Is there a spring in the land where she has gone and where she can fill her vessel in these hot thirsty days?" |
| 6686 | What awful incantation have you read among the stars in the sky, that with a sealed secret message the night entered your heart, silent and strange? |
| 6686 | What call from the dark urges you? |
| 6686 | What can you expect when it is too late? |
| 6686 | What folly is this? |
| 6686 | What quenchless fire glows in your eyes? |
| 6686 | What restless fever runs in your blood? |
| 6686 | What will you have for your reward? |
| 6686 | What will your duties be? |
| 6686 | Where are its shores and its bottom? |
| 6686 | Where do you hurry with your basket when the marketing is over? |
| 6686 | Where do you hurry with your basket when the marketing is over? |
| 6686 | Where is this hope for union except in thee, my God? |
| 6686 | Who are you that follow me with stealthy silent steps? |
| 6686 | Who can know that your eyelids have not been touched with lamp- black? |
| 6686 | Who can strain the blue from the sky? |
| 6686 | Who is it that comes slowly to my door and gently knocks? |
| 6686 | Who knows the enchantment that can gather and shut it up again? |
| 6686 | Whom do I try to clasp in my arms? |
| 6686 | Why did he choose to come to my door? |
| 6686 | Why did he choose to come to my door? |
| 6686 | Why did the flower fade? |
| 6686 | Why did the harp- string break? |
| 6686 | Why did the stream dry up? |
| 6686 | Why did you single me out and bring me away from the cool shelter of our common life? |
| 6686 | Why did you swiftly turn your face and peep at me through your fluttering veil? |
| 6686 | Why do you come at this late hour? |
| 6686 | Why do you look at me amazed, mother? |
| 6686 | Why do you look at me amazed, mother? |
| 6686 | Why do you put me to shame with a look? |
| 6686 | Why do you stir the water with your hands and fitfully glance at the road for some one in mere idle sport? |
| 6686 | Will there be no proud ceremony for our wedding? |
| 6686 | Will you not tie up with a wreath your tawny coiled locks? |
| 6686 | You can not satisfy all our hungry hopes, but should I desert you for that? |
| 19630 | Didst thou say that Sindhu''s monarch on my Abhimanyu bore,-- He alone,--and Jayadratha leagued with six marauders more? 19630 Have I heard thee, menial, rightly?" |
| 19630 | Have I lain too long and slumbered, sweet Savitri, faithful spouse? 19630 Heard ye not,"the Brahmans questioned,"in Panchala''s fair domain, Drupad, good and gracious monarch, doth a mighty feast ordain? |
| 19630 | Strange thy accents,spake Uttara,"stranger are the weapons bright, Are they arms of sons of Pandu famed on earth for matchless might? |
| 19630 | Tell me,questioned Aswapati,"for I may not guess thy thought, Wherefore is my daughter''s action with a sad disaster fraught? |
| 19630 | Tell me,_ rishi_, then thy reason,so the anxious monarch cried,"Why to youth so great and gifted may this maid be not allied? |
| 19630 | Tell me,_ rishi_,said the monarch,"for thy sense from me is hid, Has this prince some fatal blemish, wherefore is this match forbid?" |
| 19630 | Who is noblest,quoth Yudhishthir,"in this galaxy of fame, Who of chiefs and crownéd monarchs doth our foremost honour claim?" |
| 19630 | And Draupadi noble princess, purest best of womankind, Doth she wander with Yudhishthir, changeless in her heart and mind?" |
| 19630 | And I weep not for Duryodhan, like a prince he fought and fell, But my sorrow- stricken husband, who can his misfortunes tell? |
| 19630 | And if freed from shame and bondage in his folly played again, Lost again and went to exile, wherefore doth he now complain? |
| 19630 | And thy limbs so young and tender, on the bare earth do they lie, Where the hungry jackal prowleth and the vulture flutters nigh? |
| 19630 | Are the solid mountains splitting, is it bursting of the earth, Is it tempest''s pealing accent whence the lightning takes its birth? |
| 19630 | Art thou slain, my gallant warrior, and thy father was not nigh? |
| 19630 | Ask him to restore the kingdom on the sacred Jumna''s shore? |
| 19630 | Ask the chief who proudly boasted, archer Arjun he would slay, Helméd Arjun sways the battle, whither now doth Karna stay? |
| 19630 | Ask the dark and deep Sakuni, where is now his low device, Wherefore wields he not his weapon as he wields the loaded dice? |
| 19630 | Bow to them while warlike Drona leads us as in days of old, Bhishma greater than the bright- gods, archer Karna true and bold? |
| 19630 | Bring me forth a chariot- driver, let me speed my battle- car, And in wonder they will question-- Is this Arjun famed in war?" |
| 19630 | Can I ask him, worse than woman, in the battle''s ranks to lead?" |
| 19630 | Challenge from a crownéd monarch can a crownéd king decline, Can a Kshatra warrior fathom fraud in sons of royal line? |
| 19630 | Could''st thou, impious Valadeva, midst these potentates of fame, On Yudhishthir pious- hearted cast this undeservéd blame? |
| 19630 | Dear or hated be the foeman, Arjun, thou shalt fight and slay, Wherefore else the blood of nations hast thou poured from day to day?" |
| 19630 | Didst thou bear that peerless archer, all- resistless in his car, Sweeping with the roar of ocean through the shattered ranks of war? |
| 19630 | Didst thou bear the mighty hero, mortal man of heavenly birth, Crushing''neath his arm of valour all his foemen on the earth? |
| 19630 | Didst thou fight a holy battle when with six marauders skilled, Karna hunted Abhimanyu and the youthful hero killed? |
| 19630 | Didst thou hide the birth and lineage of that chief of deathful ire, As a man in folds of garments seeks to hide the flaming fire? |
| 19630 | Didst thou in the council chamber with your insults foul and keen By her flowing raven tresses drag Yudhishthir''s stainless queen? |
| 19630 | Didst thou say the impious Kurus stooped unto this deed of shame, Outrage on the laws of honour, stain upon a warrior''s fame? |
| 19630 | Didst thou speak to warlike Bhima as thy serf and bounden slave, Wrong my father, righteous Arjun, peerless prince and warrior brave? |
| 19630 | Didst thou then fulfil thy duty when, Yudhishthir''s exile crost, Krishna asked in right and justice for Yudhishthir''s empire lost? |
| 19630 | Didst thou tread the path of honour on Yudhishthir''s fatal fall, Heaping insults on Draupadi in Hastina''s council hall? |
| 19630 | Didst thou with the false Sakuni win a realm by low device, Win his kingdom from Yudhishthir by ignoble trick of dice? |
| 19630 | Do those warriors in my absence Matsya''s far- famed cattle steal? |
| 19630 | Dost thou, sage and saintly_ rishi_, know of wife or woman born, By such nameless sorrow smitten, by such strange misfortune torn? |
| 19630 | Doth a man of sense and honour, blest with wisdom and with pride, Thus proclaim his wedded consort was another''s loving bride? |
| 19630 | Doth a secret love for Pandavs quell our leader''s matchless might? |
| 19630 | Doth he as Yudhishthir''s kinsman count as foremost and the best? |
| 19630 | Doth he as a sage and elder claim the homage to him done? |
| 19630 | Doth he as a wise preceptor claim the highest, foremost place, When the great preceptor Drona doth his royal mansion grace? |
| 19630 | Drupad monarch of Panchala sleeps by foeman Drona''s side? |
| 19630 | Friendless, kinless, on this wide earth whither shall they turn and fly? |
| 19630 | Gold and jewels graced thy bosom, gems bedecked thy lofty crest, Doth the crimson mark of sabre decorate that manly breast? |
| 19630 | Golden suns of wondrous brightness on this fourth their lustre lend, Who may be the unknown archer who this stately bow can bend? |
| 19630 | Hast thou in thy ancient legends heard of true and faithful wife, With a stronger wife''s affection, with a sadder woman''s life?" |
| 19630 | Hast thou lost thy fair Draupadi, is thy wedded wife our slave?" |
| 19630 | Hath not truthful Bhishma sworn, He will fight no wounded warrior, he will fight no woman born? |
| 19630 | Hear ye not the deep_ gandiva_? |
| 19630 | Here in glory, son of DHARMA, sits my noble righteous lord, Sin nor shame nor human frailty stains Yudhishthir''s deed or word, Silent all? |
| 19630 | III The Fated Bridegroom"Whence comes she,"so Narad questioned,"whither was Savitri led, Wherefore to a happy husband hath Savitri not been we d?" |
| 19630 | If Yudhishthir, fond of gambling, played a heedless, reckless game, Lost his empire and his freedom, was it then Duryodhan''s blame? |
| 19630 | If the truth resides in_ Vedas_, brave Duryodhan dwells above, Wherefore linger we in sadness severed from his cherished love? |
| 19630 | In this throng of crownéd monarchs, ruling kings of righteous fame, Can this uncrowned Vrishni chieftain foremost rank and honour claim? |
| 19630 | Is Satyavan free in bounty, gentle- hearted, full of grace, Duly versed in sacred knowledge, fair in mind and fair in face?" |
| 19630 | Is he son of chariot- driver? |
| 19630 | Is it that the fates of battle''gainst the Kuru house combine, Is it that thy heart''s affection unto Panda''s sons incline? |
| 19630 | Is the youth of noble lustre, gifted in the gifts of art, Blest with wisdom, prowess, patience daring, dauntless in his heart?" |
| 19630 | Knowest thou good and noble Krishna; as a child I climbed his knee, As a boy I called him father, hung upon him lovingly? |
| 19630 | Mark ye not these pointed arrows falling prone before my feet? |
| 19630 | Mighty Bhishma, hath he fallen? |
| 19630 | Next are these with vulture- feather, golden- yellow in their hue, Made of iron, keen and whetted, whose may be these arrows true? |
| 19630 | Pained at heart was good Vidura, and he asked in sore distress:"_ Arya_ Pritha, will she wander in the pathless wilderness? |
| 19630 | Rend my hard and stony bosom crushed beneath this cruel pain, Should Gandhari live to witness noble son and grandson slain? |
| 19630 | See the chieftains with their maces and their swords of trusty steel, Still they grasp their tried weapons,--do they still the life- pulse feel?" |
| 19630 | Shall he, sending them to slaughter, now survive and learn to flee, Shall he, ruler over monarchs, learn to bend the servile knee? |
| 19630 | Shall we, who to mighty INDRA scarce will do the homage due, Bow to homeless sons of Pandu and their comrades faint and few? |
| 19630 | Shall ye range the pathless forest dreary day and darksome night, Reft of all save native virtue, clad in native, inborn might? |
| 19630 | Should he rather send a message to the proud unbending foe, And Duryodhan''s haughty purpose seek by messenger to know? |
| 19630 | Should he send a noble envoy, trained in virtue, true and wise, With his greetings to Duryodhan in a meek and friendly guise? |
| 19630 | Should he smite his ancient foemen skilled in each deceitful art, Unforgiving in their vengeance, unrelenting in their heart? |
| 19630 | Soft thine eye as budding lotus, sweet and gentle was thy face, Are those soft eyes closed in slumber, faded in that peerless grace? |
| 19630 | Speak, what nameless guilt or folly, secret sin to me unknown, Turns from me your sweet affection, father''s love that was my own? |
| 19630 | Sure some great and mighty monarch owns this other bow of might, Set with golden glittering insects on its ebon back so bright? |
| 19630 | Sure the Brahman boy in folly dares a foolish thoughtless deed, Shame amidst this throng of monarchs, shall it be the Brahman''s meed? |
| 19630 | Think, Duryodhan, when_ gandharvas_ took thee captive and a slave, Did not Arjun rend thy fetters, Arjun righteous chief and brave? |
| 19630 | Unto Krishna as a_ rishi_ should the foremost rank be given? |
| 19630 | Unto Krishna for his knowledge should the noble prize we yield? |
| 19630 | Unto Krishna should we render honour for his warlike fame? |
| 19630 | Warlike Drona, doth he guard us like a broad and ample shield? |
| 19630 | Was he then our eldest brother we have in the battle slain, And our nearest dearest elder fell upon the gory plain? |
| 19630 | Was this dream my fair Savitri, dost thou of this Vision know? |
| 19630 | Weak are they in friends and forces, feeble is their fitful star, Wherefore then in pride and folly seek with us unequal war? |
| 19630 | What great crime or darkening sorrow shadows o''er my bitter fate, That ye chiefs and Kuru''s monarch mark Duryodhan for your hate? |
| 19630 | When in Matsya''s fields of pasture captured we Virata''s kine, Did not Arjun in his valour beat thy countless force and mine? |
| 19630 | Where are now those pious princes by a dire misfortune crossed, Warlike Arjun, good Yudhishthir, by his subjects loved and lost? |
| 19630 | Where is tiger- waisted Bhima, matchless fighter in the field, And the brave and twin- born brothers skilled the arms of war to wield? |
| 19630 | Wherefore doth our leader linger when he hears the battle cry? |
| 19630 | Wherefore then before yon Arjun do the valiant Kurus fly? |
| 19630 | Wherefore then in every battle are the Kuru chieftains slain, Wherefore lie my warlike brothers lifeless on the ghastly plain? |
| 19630 | Wherefore voice of evening bugle speaks not on the battle- field, Merry conch nor sounding trumpet music to the warriors yield? |
| 19630 | Who doth own these shining arrows with their heads in gold encased, Thousand arrows bright and feathered, in the golden quivers placed? |
| 19630 | Who doth own this wondrous sabre, shape of toad is on the hilt, On the blade a toad is graven, and the scabbard nobly gilt? |
| 19630 | Who shall face the twin- born brothers by the mighty Bhima led, And the vengeful chief Satyaki with his bow and arrows dread? |
| 19630 | Who shall meet the helméd Arjun in the gory field of war, Krishna with his fiery discus mounted on his battle- car? |
| 19630 | Whose this second ponderous weapon stout and massive in the hold, On the staff are worked by artists elephants of burnished gold? |
| 19630 | Wilt thou as a crownéd monarch rule a mighty nation''s weal? |
| 19630 | Wilt thou do Duryodhan''s mandate, proud Duryodhan''s willing slave? |
| 19630 | With a halting zeal for Kurus doth the noble Bhishma fight? |
| 19630 | Woe to me, from rocky mountains where I dwelt by Pandu''s side, When I lost him, to Hastina wherefore came I in my pride? |
| 19630 | Would that son of chariot- driver fling on us this insult keen, Hadst thou, noble king and elder, staked nor freedom nor our queen?" |
| 19630 | Youngest, gentlest Sahadeva, dearest to this widowed heart, Wilt thou watch beside thy mother, while thy cruel brothers part?" |
| 19630 | and will no chieftain rise to save a woman''s life, Not a hand or voice is lifted to defend a virtuous wife? |
| 19630 | base, insulting Karna slain, Karna dealing dire destruction on this battle''s reddened plain? |
| 19630 | bound by battle''s sacred laws, Wherefore fightest not with Arjun for thy house and for thy cause? |
| 19630 | cheerless is that young heart, Abhimanyu''s princess- wife, What can sad Subhadra offer to her joyless sunless life? |
| 19630 | dost thou lead the Kurus in this battle''s crimson field? |
| 19630 | elders, noble lords are here, Can a modest wedded woman thus in loose attire appear?" |
| 19630 | peerless in the art of war, Can it be that we shall falter while thou speed''st the battle- car? |
| 19630 | quenched is archer Karna''s pride? |
| 7971 | And did they claim all the earth only for this? |
| 7971 | But why rob me of my chance to serve you? |
| 7971 | But why? |
| 7971 | Contain what? |
| 7971 | How do you know? |
| 7971 | How should you ever have such luck again as to see the God in his chariot? |
| 7971 | Is there any need? |
| 7971 | My pitcher? |
| 7971 | Was it only for this that they said it was the day of the Coming? |
| 7971 | What does that child bring you? |
| 7971 | What is great? |
| 7971 | What work? |
| 7971 | Who except God visits the poor? |
| 7971 | Who is the fortunate mother,she cried,"that has clasped you in her arms and fed you at her breast, and whom your dear voice called''Mother''?" |
| 7971 | Why must you? |
| 7971 | --I said to Mind--"Is some one to come?" |
| 7971 | 13 Whence do you bring this disquiet, my love? |
| 7971 | 21 I"Why these preparations without end?" |
| 7971 | 27 I was walking along a path overgrown with grass, when suddenly I heard from some one behind,"See if you know me?" |
| 7971 | 3 It was growing dark when I asked her,"What strange land have I come to?" |

| 7971 | AMA Jivaji? |
| 7971 | Ah, who is this whose arms enfold me? |
| 7971 | All asked,"Where is the fairy bride?" |
| 7971 | And what else? |
| 7971 | Are the Gods gone mad?" |
| 7971 | But may not tears keep ever fresh the memory of a glance flung through a passionate moment? |
| 7971 | But what was there to see? |
| 7971 | But where can I keep it safe from the trampling hours? |
| 7971 | But who does ever understand? |
| 7971 | But who was the woman whose heart caught fire from your shame and anger, and flared up in silence? |
| 7971 | DEVAYANI But is it true you had eyes for nothing save your books? |
| 7971 | DEVAYANI How"No"? |
| 7971 | DEVAYANI Is it so easy for you to leave this forest, which through long years has lavished on you shade and song? |
| 7971 | DEVAYANI Why not? |
| 7971 | DEVAYANI You have, as you desired, won that rare knowledge coveted by the Gods;--but think, do you aspire after nothing further? |
| 7971 | DHRITARASHTRA And what will that bring us? |
| 7971 | DHRITARASHTRA Are you happy? |
| 7971 | DHRITARASHTRA I ask you again, what happiness have you in winning the undivided kingdom? |
| 7971 | DHRITARASHTRA Our own son, Duryodhana? |
| 7971 | DHRITARASHTRA What will remain to us after that? |
| 7971 | DHRITARASHTRA Whom, my queen? |

| 7971 | He asked her in a whisper,"Tell me, what fairy art thou?" |
| 7971 | He asked himself in wonder,"How do I deserve this?" |
| 7971 | He comes at times when I am unprepared, yet how can I refuse him? |
| 7971 | His bewildered mind sent abroad into the night the question,"Where is heaven?" |
| 7971 | His father took him in his arms and the boy asked him,"Where is mother?" |
| 7971 | How can solid facts permit such intrusion? |
| 7971 | How can you call him_ husband_ who forcibly snatched you from Jivaji to whom you had been sacredly affianced? |
| 7971 | I ask myself,"When shall I have another chance to whisper to her words with the rhythm of eternity in them?" |
| 7971 | I asked impatiently;"was not this body good which is now lost to the world?" |
| 7971 | I asked,"Child, why did you cry?" |
| 7971 | I bowed my head and asked,"Is he coming?" |
| 7971 | I felt angry and said,"That unopened letter with her name on it, and this palm- leaf fan bordered with red silk by her own hands, are they not real?" |
| 7971 | I stood silent for some time till I said,"Have you lost all the great burden of your tears?" |
| 7971 | I was bewildered and asked everybody I met,"What is that music in the breeze?" |
| 7971 | I was speaking to you, my love, with mind barely conscious of my voice-- tell me, had it any meaning? |
| 7971 | If you are only the haven, as they say, then what is the sea? |

| 7971 | KARNA Fortunate mother of five brave kings, where can you find place for me, a small chieftain of lowly descent? |
| 7971 | KARNA Must you, who once refused me a mother''s love, tempt me with a kingdom? |
| 7971 | KARNA Then why did you banish me-- a castaway uprooted from my ancestral soil, adrift in a homeless current of indignity? |
| 7971 | KARNA Where? |

| 7971 | Mind asked me,"Poet, do you understand?" |
| 7971 | Mind asked,"Have you any news?" |
| 7971 | Must evening sweep this gleam of anguish away, as it will the last flicker of fire from the sunset? |
| 7971 | On a morning of dark disquiet, when the birds are mute and their nests shake in the gust, I sit alone and ask myself,"Where is she?" |
| 7971 | On a sudden my voice would send your heart quivering through your limbs-- have I never witnessed it? |
| 7971 | Only tell me why you have come to- day to call me back to the ruins of a heaven wrecked by your own hands? |

| 7971 | She sees the sun only for a few moments at mid- day, and asks herself in wise doubt,"Is it real?" |
| 7971 | Tell me what you do on this bank so dry that it is agape with cracks? |
| 7971 | Tell me whither you mean to lead? |
| 7971 | Tell me, for whom do you wait? |
| 7971 | Tell me, strange woman, what mystery binds my birth to you? |
| 7971 | That you never broke off your studies to pay me homage with flowers, never lay in wait for a chance, of an evening, to help me water my flower- beds? |
| 7971 | The delights blossom on all sides in every form, but where is your heart''s thread to make a wreath of them? |
| 7971 | The girl asks,"What do you want?" |
| 7971 | The girl takes it up, turns it round and asks,"What does it mean?" |
| 7971 | The man says to her,"Would you lend me your pitcher?" |
| 7971 | The mother of Arjuna? |
| 7971 | The opening spirit has overtaken thee, canst thou remain a bud any longer? |
| 7971 | The poet says,"Who can buy love without paying its price? |
| 7971 | They ask me,"Who should fold us?" |
| 7971 | Though you never make the shore, though you let me sink, why should I be foolish and afraid? |
| 7971 | To what heaven, I wonder, have they carried in their flower- baskets those days that tingled to the lyrics of the king''s poet? |
| 7971 | VINAYAKA Where will you go, Ama? |
| 7971 | Vidyapati[2] asks,"Maiden, how are you to spend your days and nights without your lord?" |
| 7971 | Was not all your pleasure stored therein? |
| 7971 | Were these parts of a cruel conspiracy plotted in your Paradise? |
| 7971 | Were you ever small, timid or in bud, Urvashi, O Youth everlasting? |
| 7971 | What gifts have you brought in both hands to fling before me in the dust? |
| 7971 | What if her beauty be of the figure and her smile merely of the face? |
| 7971 | What make you here? |
| 7971 | What makes you lose your heart to the sky-- the sky that is boundless? |
| 7971 | What, benefits only!--and neither beauty nor love nor...? |
| 7971 | When things were grown to a pile, when seven wings of his palace were complete, I said to Mind,"Is it not enough?" |
| 7971 | Where will_ you_ take shelter? |
| 7971 | Who says it is hard to forget? |
| 7971 | Whom should they seek? |
| 7971 | Why is such splendour about you to lure the heart of one who is nothing? |
| 7971 | Why set a bottomless chasm between Arjuna and myself, turning the natural attachment of kinship to the dread attraction of hate? |
| 7971 | Would you know them, friend, if the words were colourless? |
| 7971 | Would you know them, friend, if there were no tune? |
| 7971 | You can go back to your work and your glory, but what is left for me? |
| 7971 | and even lead you to slight a Brahmin''s blessing?" |
| 7971 | and why should my name take such music from her tongue as to draw my heart out to him and his brothers? |
| 7971 | she asks,"to draw water?" |
| 11738 | ''And who are these fellows who set themselves up for wise men? 11738 ''But how can I make this underground passage?'' |
| 11738 | ''But how can I manage this?'' 11738 ''But why should I waste your time with needless arguments? |
| 11738 | ''Have you no clever thief here,''I replied,''accustomed to such work?'' 11738 ''Tell me,''he answered,''how far do you regard virtue as superior to the other two?'' |
| 11738 | ''Who is he?'' 11738 But is there no danger?" |
| 11738 | How can that be? |
| 11738 | How can there be danger when the ceremony is to be performed by his own queen, in his own private gardens, where no stranger can enter? 11738 Meanwhile the rascal took the anklet he had stolen to the husband, saying:''I wish to dispose of this, will you buy it?'' |
| 11738 | Not having his eyes yet opened, he started as if thunderstruck, and said:''My dear, what does all this mean? 11738 Of what family was she?" |
| 11738 | Recognising the ornament as having been his wife''s, he asked:''Where did you get this?'' 11738 Shall that monster carry off the lady before our eyes? |
| 11738 | Tell me,said he,"who they were, and how they prove the truth of your answers?" |
| 11738 | What best accomplishes difficult things? |
| 11738 | What is love? |
| 11738 | What is most to the advantage of a householder? |
| 11738 | What is your plan? |
| 11738 | ''Did I ever deceive you?'' |
| 11738 | ''Is this your child?'' |
| 11738 | ''What would I say? |
| 11738 | After I was rested and refreshed, he asked me,"What has brought you back so soon? |
| 11738 | After some further talk, I asked him:"Friend, what do you now intend to do?" |
| 11738 | And I, having my mind occupied by astonishment, thought:"Is this Lakshmi? |
| 11738 | And how did you get all these attendants?" |
| 11738 | And who can this beautiful lady be? |
| 11738 | Are there not the six thousand verses composed for the use of kings, and containing the whole science? |
| 11738 | Are they not often themselves cheated by the unlearned? |
| 11738 | Are they the less worshipped on that account? |
| 11738 | Are you willing, if you are pardoned, to forsake your evil ways, and lead an honest life? |
| 11738 | As she said this, I called out:"O old woman, who ever bound a god or the wind, Shall these crows catch an eagle?" |
| 11738 | Being struck by the appearance of the child, he said"Where did you get this beautiful boy, who is like a king''s son? |
| 11738 | Besides, have not the learned and clever ministers and counsellors approved of it, and is it likely that they would be deceived?" |
| 11738 | But I have done nothing to offend him; why should he so distress me? |
| 11738 | But why should I preach to you thus? |
| 11738 | Can you expect that I will confer on you this beauty for the sake of my rivals?" |
| 11738 | Can you tell me where to find him?" |
| 11738 | Cruel, indeed, was Târâvali, who, when she had received you again from Kuvera, did not bring you at once to me; but what could I expect from her? |
| 11738 | Do they always do right? |
| 11738 | Do you think he has no cause for anger against you? |
| 11738 | Give up your exertions; the prince is the only physician who can cure me; and how can he come to me here?" |
| 11738 | Going up to him, I asked"What is this concourse of people? |
| 11738 | Great was their mutual astonishment and joy when they recognised each other, the prince exclaiming,"Is it possible? |
| 11738 | Have you not robbed him of his intended wife, by bribing her father? |
| 11738 | Have you, in your travels, met with any very extraordinary adventure?" |
| 11738 | Having heard this, I made my appearance, and said:"O lovely lady, do you ask how you have offended Kâma? |
| 11738 | He answered furiously:"You purse- proud wretch, do you think I will not take my master''s part? |
| 11738 | He hesitated for a moment, and looked very hard at me; but at last he said:"What harm can there be in telling you? |
| 11738 | He took it to our master, the god Kuvera, who sent for me, and asked,"What induced you to bring this child?" |
| 11738 | He, having heard nothing of what his servant had said, when summoned and asked"Have you a confidential servant named Vimardaka?" |
| 11738 | How came you to be in such a place, and why did the lady wish to destroy herself?" |
| 11738 | How can she do this without her ornaments? |
| 11738 | How is it possible that the princess should have fallen in love with such a paltry wretch, overlooking a man like me? |
| 11738 | How is my bed of leaves exchanged for this soft couch? |
| 11738 | I am deceived, he is not coming; O my heart, how can this be borne? |
| 11738 | I asked her, therefore:"Will you allow me to examine that picture?" |
| 11738 | I asked him therefore:"Do you know anything of what is going on at Mahishmati?" |
| 11738 | I asked him"Worthy sir, what is this festival called? |
| 11738 | I asked him--"What is that camp which I see at some distance?" |
| 11738 | I have been searching for him ever since; have you seen him?'' |
| 11738 | I said to myself:"Who are these creatures whose voices I have heard? |
| 11738 | I then painted a portrait of myself, and said:"Show this to the queen; she will no doubt admire it, and say:''Is this a portrait or a fancy picture?'' |
| 11738 | I then said to the old woman,"Pray tell me what all this means? |
| 11738 | I thought to myself I could easily run away from them; but what would become of the poor old woman? |
| 11738 | If I do not obtain her, Kâma will not suffer me to live; but how can I make known my love to her? |
| 11738 | Inspired by this circumstance with a happy thought, Râjavâhana said to the princess,"Will you allow me to tell you a short story? |
| 11738 | Is it possible that such a handsome man can exist in the world? |
| 11738 | Is it really you, my dear friend Apahâravarma, who have done this deed?" |
| 11738 | Is there any one among you skilled in charms who can recover him?" |
| 11738 | Lost in astonishment, I said to myself;"What has become of that great forest wrapt in darkness? |
| 11738 | May I know the cause of your grief? |
| 11738 | Now my transformation is ended, and you are so far free; tell me what I can do for you in atonement for the suffering which I have caused?" |
| 11738 | O adorable Kâma, what have I done to offend thee, that thou thus burnest me and dost not reduce me to ashes?" |
| 11738 | Observing that she looked at me very hard, and that tears came into her eyes, I asked her:"O, mother, what is the cause of your grief?" |
| 11738 | She, not imagining what had occurred, would have let me pass without especial notice; but I called her, and said:"Have you never seen me before?" |
| 11738 | Then do you answer:''Suppose it should be a portrait of some living person; what then?'' |
| 11738 | Then he began:"What is cruel?" |
| 11738 | Then indeed she opened her eyes wide with joy and astonishment, saying:"Can it be possible? |
| 11738 | Then they sat down together under a shady tree, and the prince inquired:"What have you been doing all this time? |
| 11738 | Then, as if my anger were appeased, I answered:"Why should I, who am about to die, harbour resentment? |
| 11738 | Then, with a knowing smile, he added,"But what makes you look so pale?" |
| 11738 | What are we now to do?" |
| 11738 | What are you doing here, destroying my flowers?" |
| 11738 | What can I do? |
| 11738 | What did you do when you missed me that morning in the forest?" |
| 11738 | What has become of the great love which you professed for me?'' |
| 11738 | What have I to do with that low fellow? |
| 11738 | What is now to be done?" |
| 11738 | What more would you have? |
| 11738 | What will become of me?" |
| 11738 | Whence is this dome above me, lofty as the great temple of Siva? |
| 11738 | Where do you come from? |
| 11738 | Where does he come from? |
| 11738 | Where have you been? |
| 11738 | Who are all these lovely women, like a troop of Apsaras lying down wearied with play? |
| 11738 | Who is this lady? |
| 11738 | Why do you sit here alone, away from the others?" |
| 11738 | Why should you annoy me? |
| 11738 | Will this satisfy you?" |
| 11738 | Will you be offended if I ask you to come and rest at my house?" |
| 11738 | Will you be so good as to help me, and tie his hands behind him that he may not get away again?" |
| 11738 | Will your majesty deign to allow her to remain under your protection until my return?" |
| 11738 | You seem very intelligent; can not you think of some stratagem which may have the desired effect?'' |
| 11738 | and the other saying,"Do I indeed see my Lord Râjavâhana?" |
| 11738 | and what is he that he should thus lord it over us?'' |
| 11738 | he asked,"and how can I be of service in carrying it out?" |
| 11738 | how can I find out who he is?" |
| 11738 | is not this a delusion? |
| 11738 | is there anything in which you require my assistance?" |
| 11738 | should there be any pity for the violator of the harem? |
| 11738 | who can that magician be, and what dreadful thing is it which he is about to do?" |
| 12058 | Arjuna said,''O god among men, what service wilt thou take in Virata''s kingdom? 12058 Vrihannala said,''Why dost thou look so pale through fear and enhance the joy of thy foes? |
| 12058 | Yudhishthira said,''How wilt thou, O Sahadeva, bear thyself before that king? 12058 Alas, beholding Yudhishthira a courtier sitting beside another and breathing adulatory speeches to the other, who can help being afflicted with grief? 12058 Always thinking of Sahadeva''s plight, I can not, O Bhimasena, obtain sleep,--what to speak you of the rest? 12058 And O thou of beautiful face, whence hast thou come to the city of Virata? 12058 And Virata, the king of the Matsyas owning a large army, enquired after Uttara, saying,''Where hath Uttara gone?'' 12058 And beholding her forlorn and clad in a single piece of cloth, the queen addressed her saying,''O beautiful one, who are you, and what do you seek?'' 12058 And beholding her in that condition, Sudeshna asked,''Who, O beauteous lady, hath insulted thee? 12058 And beholding her wandering, men and women came to her hastily and addressed her, saying,''Who are you? 12058 And beholding him thus running, the Kurus began to argue,''Who is this person, thus disguised like fire concealed in ashes? 12058 And he of the Kuru race then addressed the princess-- his beloved wife, saying,''For what purpose hast thou come hither in such a hurry? 12058 And he said in hurry( unto Bhishma),''How hath this one escape from thee? 12058 And how have those sinful wretches been slain? 12058 And on reaching the city, Ruru''s son( Yudhishthira), addressed Arjuna, saying,''Where shall we deposit our weapons, before entering the city? 12058 And seeing that superhuman act, viz., the overthrow of Kichaka, they said,''Where is his neck, and where are his legs?'' 12058 And seeing this, Uttara asked his father in a hurry, saying,''By whom, O king, hath this one been struck? 12058 And she reflected, saying,''What am I to do? 12058 And they shall say unto one another,Is it Arjuna himself who is opposing us?''" |
| 12058 | And what do you seek?'' |
| 12058 | And what work dost thou seek? |
| 12058 | And when the latter came, the king addressed him, saying,''To whom dost thou belong? |
| 12058 | And whence dost thou come? |
| 12058 | And who was my ally, O child, while I encountered in battle innumerable kings at the_ Swayamvara_ to the princess of Panchala? |
| 12058 | Art thou a_ Yakshi_, a Goddess, a_ Gandharvi_, or an_ Apsara_? |
| 12058 | Art thou the daughter of a celestial, or art thou a female_ Naga_? |
| 12058 | Art thou the guardian goddess of some city, a_ Vidyadhari_, or a_ Kinnari_,--or art thou_ Rohini_ herself? |
| 12058 | As to how I have come by this form, what will it avail thee to hear the account which will only augment my pain? |
| 12058 | But what can I do? |
| 12058 | But where are that Arjuna, the son of Pritha, and Yudhishthira of the Kuru race, and Nakula, and Sahadeva, and Bhimasena, the sons of Pandu? |
| 12058 | By whom hath this sinful act been perpetrated?'' |
| 12058 | Counteracting celestial weapons with celestial, and human weapons with human, what man is a match for Arjuna? |
| 12058 | Devoted to her lords, and eminently virtuous, also, how will she live? |
| 12058 | Dishonestly deceived by us and liberated from thirteen years''exile, will not the illustrious hero annihilate us? |
| 12058 | Hast thou no knowledge of what is proper and what improper for one to say? |
| 12058 | Having acquired wealth in this way by deceit and fraud like a vendor of meat, who that is wise boast of it? |
| 12058 | Having, at the time of setting out, talked before both men and women so highly of thy manliness, why wouldst thou desist from the fight? |
| 12058 | Hearing this, Vrihannala said,''How hast thou, O_ Sairindhri_, been delivered? |
| 12058 | Heir to the king of the Matsyas, and born in a noble family, why should I, O prince, make thee do such a reproachable deed?''" |
| 12058 | How also, forsaking thy follower, dost thou droop so amidst foes?'' |
| 12058 | How can I, therefore, being a prince by birth, touch it with my hands? |
| 12058 | How can my purpose be effected?'' |
| 12058 | How couldst thou meet in battle the celebrated Aswatthaman? |
| 12058 | How couldst thou occupy the royal seat thus attired in handsome robes and ornaments?''" |
| 12058 | How couldst thou, O child, encounter that Bhishma who hath no equal in the whole world of men? |
| 12058 | How couldst thou, O child, encounter that Duryodhana, the prince who is capable of piercing even a mountain with his mighty arrows? |
| 12058 | How wilt thou overcome this great calamity that has overtaken thee?'' |
| 12058 | How wilt thou vanquish in battle all these that are skilled in every kind of weapon? |
| 12058 | How would they deviate from virtue that have Yudhishthira for their guide? |
| 12058 | How, indeed, couldst thou, O child, encounter that Karna who leaveth not a single mark unhit amongst even a thousand that he may aim at all at once? |
| 12058 | If it be gods, or_ Gandharvas_ or_ Asuras_, or_ Rakshasas_, will Dhananjaya the son of Kunti, desist to fight from panic? |
| 12058 | If it is song or dance or musical instruments or such other things, I can entertain thee therewith, but where is my skill for becoming a charioteer?'' |
| 12058 | If, meanwhile, it is Arjuna that hath come, what fault can attach to us? |
| 12058 | In the_ Vedantas_, in the_ Puranas_, and in old histories, who save Jamadagni, O king, would be Drona''s superior? |
| 12058 | In what battle didst thou defeat Yudhishthira, or Bhima that foremost of strong men? |
| 12058 | In what battle was Indraprastha conquered by thee? |
| 12058 | In what single combat didst thou vanquish Dhananjaya, or Nakula, or Sahadeva, although thou hast robbed them of their wealth? |
| 12058 | Indeed,_ who else save Phalguna, is worthy of fighting with Drona in battle? |
| 12058 | Is my army going to be annihilated?'' |
| 12058 | Janamejaya said,"How did my great- grandfathers, afflicted with the fear of Duryodhana, pass their days undiscovered in the city of Virata? |
| 12058 | Kanka said in reply,''O monarch, O bestower of honours, what business hast thou with gamble which is attended with numerous evils? |
| 12058 | Knowing all my griefs, why dost thou ask me? |
| 12058 | My excited wrath will make that fortress formidable, and the clatter of my car- wheels-- will it not resemble the kettle- drums of thy capital? |
| 12058 | Not knowing the true cause how can I show my discrimination?'' |
| 12058 | O Kichaka, hast thou no sense which leads thee to seek thy good and by which thy life may be saved?''" |
| 12058 | O Pandava, beholding that foremost of warriors, Sahadeva, engaged in tending kine, and sleeping at night on calf- skins, how can I bear to live? |
| 12058 | O righteous one, in what capacity wilt thou reside in the city of Virata? |
| 12058 | Of these goddesses who art renowned in the celestial regions, who art thou, O graceful one?'' |
| 12058 | Of what use to us would the kine be or this vast wealth also, if Duryodhana were to sink, like a boat, in the ocean of_ Partha_?'' |
| 12058 | Of what value is life, O Bharata, when thou, O son of Kunti, dost not think me miserable, although I am afflicted with such woes? |
| 12058 | Oh, where is that wrath of theirs, that prowess, and that energy, when they quietly bear their wife to be thus insulted by a wicked wretch? |
| 12058 | Or art thou Alamvusha, or Misrakesi, Pundarika, or Malini, or the queen of Indra, or of Varuna? |
| 12058 | Or possessed of beauty like Rati''s, art thou, she who sporteth in the embraces of the God of love? |
| 12058 | Or, art thou the spouse of Viswakarma, or of the creative Lord himself? |
| 12058 | Or, which amongst these--_Hri, Sri, Kirti_ and_ Kanti_,--art thou, O thou of beautiful face? |
| 12058 | Possessed of such attributes, doth not this bull among kings, this son of Pandu, deserve, O monarch, to occupy a royal seat?''" |
| 12058 | Queen of the sons of Pandu and daughter of Drupada, who else, save myself, would wish to live, having fallen into such a plight? |
| 12058 | SECTION LXXII"Virata said,''Why, O best among the Pandavas, dost thou not wish to accept as wife this my daughter that I bestow upon thee?'' |
| 12058 | SECTION XLV"Uttara said,''O hero, mounting on this large car with myself as driver, which division of the( hostile) army wouldst thou penetrate? |
| 12058 | SECTION XVIII"Draupadi said,''What grief hath she not who hath Yudhishthira for her husband? |
| 12058 | This my banner-- single and grand-- will it not alone be equal unto those of thy city? |
| 12058 | Thus addressed, Vrihannala replied unto the prince, saying,''What ability have I to act as a charioteer in the field of battle? |
| 12058 | Unacquainted as she is with any kind of womanly work, what office will Krishna, the daughter of Drupada, perform? |
| 12058 | Upon this, the illustrious king Yudhishthira said,''Why should not he conquer that hath Vrihannala for his charioteer?'' |
| 12058 | What Kshatriya is there that expressed delight at having obtained a kingdom by means of dice, like this wicked and shameless son of Dhritarashtra? |
| 12058 | What business have we with the sons of Pandu, destitute as they are of wealth, might, and prowess? |
| 12058 | What can I do when I am not there? |
| 12058 | What can I( a weak woman) do when Virata, deficient in virtue, coolly suffereth my innocent self to be thus wronged by a wretch? |
| 12058 | What can be sadder than this, that people should know thee as Virata''s cook, Vallava by name, and therefore one that is sunk in servitude? |
| 12058 | What hath Partha to do with these, and why is he to be praised for these? |
| 12058 | What male person then is there that can resist thy attraction? |
| 12058 | What manliness is there in such an act? |
| 12058 | What office wilt thou, O Vrikodara, fill in the city of Virata?''" |
| 12058 | What other princess, save Draupadi, would live having suffered such intense misery? |
| 12058 | What shall I do? |
| 12058 | What thou hast done, however, O thou of wicked deeds, is to drag that princess to court while she was ill and had but one raiment on? |
| 12058 | What wilt thou, O king, afflicted as thou art with calamity, do? |
| 12058 | When man is there, even amongst all the gods and the_ Asuras_, that will endure to stand in the teeth of the straight arrows shot from my bow? |
| 12058 | When thou runnest away, leaving the battle, where is thy persistence in battle? |
| 12058 | When, therefore, thou art afflicted with misery, who is it that will not, O thou of beautiful hips, feel it? |
| 12058 | Whence is this thy grief?'' |
| 12058 | Where, alas, are those mighty warriors today who, though living in disguise, have always granted protection unto those that solicit it? |
| 12058 | Which of these is Nakula, and which Sahadeva and where is the celebrated Draupadi? |
| 12058 | Which of these, O king, wouldst thou choose, and where, O foremost of monarchs, shall we spend this year?'' |
| 12058 | Whither shall I go? |
| 12058 | Who else in this world than Dhananjaya, would alone come against us? |
| 12058 | Who else of my position, save myself, could live, having been kicked by Kichaka in the very sight of the wicked king of the Matsyas? |
| 12058 | Who else, save myself, could bear such second insult as the wicked Saindhava offered me while residing in the forest? |
| 12058 | Who is there in the whole world that will not succumb to the influence of desire beholding thy face? |
| 12058 | Who is there that would, binding his own hands and feet and tying a huge stone unto his neck, cross the ocean swimming with his bare arms? |
| 12058 | Who was my ally while engaged in the terrific conflict at_ Khandava_ against so many celestials and_ Danavas_? |
| 12058 | Who would ever extol a person upon hearing the neigh only of his steeds? |
| 12058 | Who, gentle one, hath done thee wrong? |
| 12058 | Whose are these arrows furnished with wing around, numbering a thousand, having golden heads, and cased in golden quivers? |
| 12058 | Whose are these seven hundred arrows, long and thick, capable of drinking( the enemy''s) blood, and looking like the crescent- shaped moon? |
| 12058 | Whose is this beautiful and long sword, sable in hue as the sky, mounted with gold, well- tempered, and cased in a sheath of goat- skin? |
| 12058 | Whose is this beautiful bow which is variegated with gold and gems, and on which are golden insects set with beautiful stones? |
| 12058 | Whose is this excellent bow of good sides and easy hold, on the staff of which shine golden elephants of such brightness? |
| 12058 | Whose is this excellent bow, adorned with three scores of_ Indragopakas_[43] of pure gold, placed on the back of the staff at proper intervals? |
| 12058 | Whose is this excellent bow, furnished with three golden suns of great effulgence, blazing forth with such brilliancy? |
| 12058 | Whose is this handsome scimitar of polished blade and golden hilt? |
| 12058 | Whose is this sable quiver,[44] bearing five images of tigers, which holdeth shafts intermined with boar- eared arrows altogether numbering ten? |
| 12058 | Why are all these of foremost car- warriors,--Bhishma and Drona and Kripa and Vikarna and Drona''s son,--now sitting on their cars, panic- stricken? |
| 12058 | Why are not those trumpets sounded now, as they were when thou hadst set out from thy kingdom? |
| 12058 | Why art thou in such a hurry, O gazelle- eyed maiden? |
| 12058 | Why art thou named Krishna and why Arjuna and Phalguna and Jishnu and Kiritin and Vibhatsu, and for what art thou Dhananjaya and Savyasachin? |
| 12058 | Why art thou, therefore, so dispirited and agitated and terrified by the blare of this conch, as if thou wert an ordinary person?'' |
| 12058 | Why dost thou desire me, even like an infant lying on its mother''s lap wishing to catch the moon? |
| 12058 | Why dost thou not, O Bhimasena, regard me as one dead? |
| 12058 | Why dost thou today, O Kichaka, solicit me so persistently even as a sick person wisheth for the night that will put a stop to his existence? |
| 12058 | Why dost thou, O Bhimasena, lie down as one dead? |
| 12058 | Why dost thou, O tiger among men, succumb in the midst of the foe? |
| 12058 | Why dost thou, therefore, boast of thyself? |
| 12058 | Why is thy face, O beauteous lady, so cheerless? |
| 12058 | Why should I not, therefore, give battle to the Kurus? |
| 12058 | Why should not my son vanquish all those with Bhishma and Drona as their leaders? |
| 12058 | Why shouldst thou, O Vrihannala, make me a polluted and unclean bearer of corpses, by compelling me to come in contact with a corpse?'' |
| 12058 | Why then, O Bharata, dost thou not regard me as one afflicted with diverse miseries, like one forlorn and immersed in a sea of sorrow?''" |
| 12058 | Why, O amiable damsel, dost thou weep? |
| 12058 | Why, O tiger among men, dost thou become so dispirited in the midst of foes? |
| 12058 | With such a one for his ally, why should not thy son conquer the foe?'' |
| 12058 | With this prowess of thine, how couldst thou wish to carry off the cattle by force? |
| 12058 | [ 46] Whose is this excellent sword irresistible, and terrible to adversaries, with the mark of a toad on it, and pointed like a toad''s head? |
| 6523 | A letter for me? |
| 6523 | Ah, well, and where did you pick him up? |
| 6523 | Am I like you, man? |
| 6523 | And green hills are there? |
| 6523 | And how do you feel to- day? |
| 6523 | And it''s by some sea? |
| 6523 | And what did your Auntie say to that? |
| 6523 | And where will you go? |
| 6523 | And why should n''t he? |
| 6523 | And you''ll come back home in the evening by the road along the river bank? |
| 6523 | And you''ll come back when you have your flowers? |
| 6523 | And you''ll let me have a flower then? |
| 6523 | And you''ll let us have them all? |
| 6523 | And you''ll teach me to cry curds and shoulder the yoke like you and walk the long, long road? |
| 6523 | And you''re going to play the whole day? |
| 6523 | Are n''t they really? |
| 6523 | Are n''t we aware that everything reaches the King''s ears? |
| 6523 | Are n''t you afraid of the likes of me? |
| 6523 | Are you cross? |
| 6523 | Are you out of your mind too, Gaffer? |
| 6523 | At what hour of the night, Herald? |
| 6523 | Been to the foot of those hills? |
| 6523 | But if the postman ca n''t find me? |
| 6523 | But then you wo n''t want me to be learned, will you, Uncle? |
| 6523 | But what''ll you ask? |
| 6523 | But who will fetch me my King''s letter when it comes? |
| 6523 | But will you play with them in front of our door for a while every morning? |
| 6523 | But will you tell me who you are? |
| 6523 | But you are n''t a child, and you''ve no child in the house; why worry then? |
| 6523 | Ca n''t I go near the window to- day, Uncle? |
| 6523 | Ca n''t I run up there? |
| 6523 | Ca n''t you hear? |
| 6523 | Dear child, will you have some curds? |
| 6523 | Dear, dear, did you ever? |
| 6523 | Do letters come from the King to his office here? |
| 6523 | Do n''t you know? |
| 6523 | Do n''t you see them run about with round gilt badges on their chests? |
| 6523 | Do n''t you see why the King plants his new Post Office right before your window? |
| 6523 | Do stop a while, dear, wo n''t you? |
| 6523 | Do the King''s postmen listen to you? |
| 6523 | Do you know I feel like that when I hear the shrill cry of kites from almost the end of the sky? |
| 6523 | Do you know more about flowers than I? |
| 6523 | Do you know when? |
| 6523 | Do you pass our house on your way home? |
| 6523 | Do you think they will know me if there''s a letter for me? |
| 6523 | Do, will you? |
| 6523 | Does his book- learning tell him everything? |
| 6523 | Even if you did n''t would n''t it be enough if it just bore your name? |
| 6523 | Fakir, now that Uncle''s off, just tell me, has the King sent me a letter to the Post Office? |
| 6523 | Gracious me, really, how so? |
| 6523 | Great heavens, what? |
| 6523 | Has the dairyman been, Uncle? |
| 6523 | Have I too? |
| 6523 | Have you any idea of the trouble you''ve got me into, between you two? |
| 6523 | Have you seen it? |
| 6523 | Headman, Mr. Headman, may I have a word with you? |
| 6523 | How can I be sister Parul when I am Sudha and my mother is Sasi, the flower- seller? |
| 6523 | How can I buy? |
| 6523 | How can it be false? |
| 6523 | How can the doctor know? |
| 6523 | How do you guess he''ll write to me? |
| 6523 | How is it I ca n''t see? |
| 6523 | How is it you''re sleepy? |
| 6523 | How will star- light help? |
| 6523 | How''s that? |
| 6523 | I am off to my work-- but, darling, you wo n''t go out, will you? |
| 6523 | I asked again,"Why are you going?" |
| 6523 | I called out to him and asked,"Where are you going?" |
| 6523 | I suppose the King''s made him our headman here? |
| 6523 | I wonder if I shall make out what''ll be in the King''s letter? |
| 6523 | Indeed, how so? |
| 6523 | Is it on that road winding through the trees which you can follow to the end of the forest when the sky is quite clear after rain? |
| 6523 | Is it so very astonishing? |
| 6523 | Is it very far, right beyond the hills? |
| 6523 | Is it very far? |
| 6523 | Is that you, Amal? |
| 6523 | Is the evening star up? |
| 6523 | Is there no other method? |
| 6523 | Made him? |
| 6523 | May n''t I be out of the courtyard at all? |
| 6523 | May n''t I give them into his own hand? |
| 6523 | My poor child, whatever has happened to you? |
| 6523 | No, Fakir, did you think I was asleep? |
| 6523 | No, how can I? |
| 6523 | No, how can they? |
| 6523 | No, why should I be? |
| 6523 | Oh, there? |
| 6523 | On the way? |
| 6523 | Otherwise why should he set his Post Office here right in front of your open window, with the golden flag flying? |
| 6523 | Please, Uncle, when shall I get well? |
| 6523 | Post Office? |
| 6523 | Right down the road there; see that huge palm- leaf umbrella hopping along? |
| 6523 | Say, Dairyman, where do you come from? |
| 6523 | Say, Fakir, do you know the King who has this Post Office? |
| 6523 | Say, Fakir, is it so? |
| 6523 | Say, Fakir, will the King be cross? |
| 6523 | Say, Headman, why do you speak to me in that tone of voice? |
| 6523 | Say, Uncle, have you to seek work? |
| 6523 | Say, Watchman? |
| 6523 | Say, brothers, where are you all off to? |
| 6523 | Say, have I kept you too long? |
| 6523 | Say, what''s going on there in that big house on the other side, where there is a flag flying high up and the people are always going in and out? |
| 6523 | Say, wo n''t you get a scolding for this? |
| 6523 | So I see, but how? |
| 6523 | Suppose I march you off then? |
| 6523 | Suppose I march you straight to the King? |
| 6523 | Suppose they had kidnapped you? |
| 6523 | Teach me the tune, will you? |
| 6523 | Tell me what''s going to happen? |
| 6523 | Tell me why does your gong sound? |
| 6523 | The headman? |
| 6523 | Then why do n''t you look out? |
| 6523 | There''s old mother Jatai; say, chaps, ai n''t he a gorgeous sepoy? |
| 6523 | Translator error?] |
| 6523 | Uncle, do you think it is meant to prevent your crossing over? |
| 6523 | Uncle, why wo n''t you let me go about? |
| 6523 | We''ll play at war; where can we get a musket? |
| 6523 | Well, what about it? |
| 6523 | Well, where do they go? |
| 6523 | What Sudha? |
| 6523 | What can we play at here? |
| 6523 | What do you do? |
| 6523 | What else can you do? |
| 6523 | What is it, my child? |
| 6523 | What is there in the letter, Mr. Headman? |
| 6523 | What is there to be sad for, my child, even were you to stay at home? |
| 6523 | What makes you smile so? |
| 6523 | What shall I say? |
| 6523 | What will you play at, brothers? |
| 6523 | What will you see, what is there so much to see? |
| 6523 | What will your"in this and in that"do for me now? |
| 6523 | What would you do then, all the day long? |
| 6523 | What would you rather be then? |
| 6523 | What''ll be our offerings to the King, Uncle, when he comes? |
| 6523 | What''s all this rigmarole? |
| 6523 | What''s all this row you are making? |
| 6523 | What''s that? |
| 6523 | What''s the good of that? |
| 6523 | What''s the matter? |
| 6523 | What''s this? |
| 6523 | What''s to be done then? |
| 6523 | Whatever''s the matter with you? |
| 6523 | When I get well, I must have my alms too from him, may n''t I? |
| 6523 | When from the city gates my friend the watchman will strike his gong,"ding dong ding, ding dong ding"--then? |
| 6523 | When shall I have my letter? |
| 6523 | When will he be awake? |
| 6523 | When will this great doctor come for me? |
| 6523 | When you call in to- morrow morning, will you bring one of them along so that he''ll know me? |
| 6523 | Where have you been this time, Fakir? |
| 6523 | Where is it? |
| 6523 | Where will you take me to? |
| 6523 | Where, to what land? |
| 6523 | Whereabouts is he? |
| 6523 | Who are they? |
| 6523 | Who are you walking there? |
| 6523 | Who is yelling after me on the highway? |
| 6523 | Who''s there?--It''s Panchanan, the headman, calls-- Aren''t you afraid of the like of me? |
| 6523 | Whoever''s going to write to you? |
| 6523 | Whose? |
| 6523 | Whose? |
| 6523 | Why are they darkening the room? |
| 6523 | Why call out then? |
| 6523 | Why do n''t you let them alone and come straight to the point? |
| 6523 | Why do you call me? |
| 6523 | Why not play on the road near this window? |
| 6523 | Why should you sell curds? |
| 6523 | Why take the King''s name in vain? |
| 6523 | Will you buy some curds? |
| 6523 | Will you feel well enough to leave your bed with the King when he comes in the middle watches of the night? |
| 6523 | Will you tell the postman it''s Amal who sits by the window here? |
| 6523 | Will you whisper a word for me in his ear? |
| 6523 | With me? |
| 6523 | Wo n''t it be nice? |
| 6523 | Wo n''t the King''s letter come? |
| 6523 | Wo n''t you sound the gong, Watchman? |
| 6523 | Would it matter if this kept your visitors off for two or three days? |
| 6523 | Would n''t that be jolly? |
| 6523 | Would the doctor mind that too? |
| 6523 | Would you be my sister Parul? |
| 6523 | Would you really? |
| 6523 | You are always out-- do you know of the King''s postmen? |
| 6523 | You do n''t really mind? |
| 6523 | You do n''t want them back? |
| 6523 | You remember how my wife was dying to adopt a child? |
| 6523 | You will, really? |
| 6523 | You wo n''t forget me? |
| 6523 | Your fakir, whoever''s that? |
| 6523 | Your village is under some very old big trees, just by the side of the red road-- isn''t that so? |
| 6523 | Your village? |
| 6523 | [ Addressing GAFFER] What are you standing there for like a statue, folding your palms.--I am nervous.--Say, are they good omens? |
| 6523 | [ Feeling AMAL''S body] How do you feel, my child? |
| 6523 | [ Lowering his yoke- pole] Whatever are you doing here, my child? |
| 6523 | [ Slapping his forehead] Alas, is that all? |
| 6523 | [ To MADHAV] Will you go about and arrange flowers through the room for the King''s visit? |
| 12370 | ''I asked,What is the nature of the project[ you have formed]? |
| 12370 | I asked, what misfortune has occurred? 12370 I had warned you, that if you deceived me, you would incur my displeasure; what smell is this? |
| 12370 | I replied,''Let me hear it; what sort of scheme is it?'' 12370 In the meantime, the soldiers of the governor arrived, and having spoken to them threateningly, said,''Why do you beat him?'' |
| 12370 | On hearing it, she said,''Do_ Musalmans_ keep their wives concealed?'' 12370 On saying this, I went up to the Jew and said, to- day is the sabbath day;[ 289] why dost thou continue to inflict stripes on them? |
| 12370 | The nurse answered,''What is the princess''s guilt? 12370 When I had finished from praying, she asked me,''What hast thou been thus doing?'' |
| 12370 | ''Who can these be,''[ I said to myself],''that they should have become involved in such calamity? |
| 12370 | A confidential eunuch[ 369] mounted on horseback, and attended by many servants, came to our_ kafila_, and asked the merchants,"Who is your chief?" |
| 12370 | A crowd assembled[ round us]; and every one asked,''What is this man''s crime?'' |
| 12370 | A worthless, hard- hearted[ boaster] answered,''Who could have performed such a deed except myself? |
| 12370 | After washing his hands and face, he stood up to pray; when he had finished his prayers, he called out,"Where is the pilgrim?" |
| 12370 | Again she said,''Well, I have embraced your faith, but my parents are idolators; what remedy is there for them?'' |
| 12370 | And all the countries thou hast conquered, what advantage are they to thee? |
| 12370 | And now, behold, I have related to thee all my adventures from the beginning to the end; do you yet desire in your heart any other[ explanations]? |
| 12370 | At last, how could I bear it? |
| 12370 | At last, when I came to myself, I heard the princess say with sorrow,''What bloody tyrant hath used thee so cruelly? |
| 12370 | But what can I do? |
| 12370 | But you having eaten and drunk at his entertainments for nothing, will you remain silent, or give him a feast in return? |
| 12370 | By so acting, get yourself generally censured?" |
| 12370 | Did not my foolish brother forbid thee?" |
| 12370 | Do not you think it sufficient that they are your prisoners? |
| 12370 | Except thyself, O, mighty Prince,[ 287] What other[ sovereign] can I praise? |
| 12370 | Giving me a look of anger, she said to the nurse,''If I kill this enemy of our faith with an arrow, will the great idol pardon my guilt or not? |
| 12370 | Had he behaved ill to thee, that he had made thee superintendent[ of his affairs]?'' |
| 12370 | Has the frog then caught cold? |
| 12370 | Have not we in England the titles of"Ladies in waiting,""Grooms,"& c., innumerable, which honours are borne by our nobility and gentry? |
| 12370 | He answered,"O, father, what shall I say? |
| 12370 | He instantly seized_ Hatim''s_ hand with great cordiality and friendship, and said to him,''Why should it not be the case? |
| 12370 | He lived and died like the rest of the sainthood; otherwise what would be the use of praying for him? |
| 12370 | He replied briefly,"What good will it do thee to hear an explanation of what has happened, that thou askest it?" |
| 12370 | He replied with anger,''What business is it to you? |
| 12370 | He replied,"O prince, do not you see the army of the_ jinns_?" |
| 12370 | He then said,"Why art thou come here?" |
| 12370 | He whose chilblain has not yet broken out, how can he know the pains of others? |
| 12370 | His majesty lifted up the_ Wazir''s_ head with his hands, and said,"There, thou hast at last seen me; art thou satisfied? |
| 12370 | How can they speak the pure language of_ Dilli_? |
| 12370 | How can we know but they may be_ Devs_[ 78] or_ Ghuls_[ 79] of the wilderness, who, assuming the appearance of men, are sitting together? |
| 12370 | How dares he take away by force the wife of another man?'' |
| 12370 | How much soever I looked, I perceived nothing, and he kept saying,''Do you now see it?'' |
| 12370 | I am a boy, and have not learnt even to read or write? |
| 12370 | I answered,''what have I wherewith I can return to my country? |
| 12370 | I asked him,"what is the noble name of your honour?" |
| 12370 | I asked some one,''Why is there such a crowd here?'' |
| 12370 | I asked them,''Am I really alive?'' |
| 12370 | I asked,''What is the reason that my slave is not come back[ with the rest]?'' |
| 12370 | I asked,''by what means can you escape, and where will you go?'' |
| 12370 | I asked[ 357] the_ khwaja_ Is not this[ young merchant] your son? |
| 12370 | I asked_ Mubarak,_"O my father, what talisman is this? |
| 12370 | I began to run after him, with all speed, but the inhabitants laid hold of my hand, and exclaimed,"What is this you are going to do? |
| 12370 | I consider you equivalent to my own life: hence, if my life goes with you, of what use is a lifeless body? |
| 12370 | I exclaimed,''O creatures of God, who are ye; tell me for God''s sake?'' |
| 12370 | I gave for answer,"How can the_ wazir_ give his daughter to a wretch so poor and destitute as myself? |
| 12370 | I gave for answer,"Your worship has, on your part, done me a great favour by giving me these stones and pebbles; but of what use are they to me? |
| 12370 | I must die at last; then what answer shall I give to God?'' |
| 12370 | I ordered my horse, but they observed thus,''The pleasure which results by viewing[ the place] on foot, can the same be felt in riding? |
| 12370 | I pitied him, and asked, where are these two now? |
| 12370 | I replied with astonishment, for God''s sake, what a speech is this? |
| 12370 | I replied,"O friend, what has_ Maliki Sadik_ to do here? |
| 12370 | I replied,"in the garb of a pilgrim, how can I desire the riches of this world, which you offer me unasked, and which I refuse?" |
| 12370 | I replied,''what is that to thee? |
| 12370 | I said to myself,"This edifice is fit for princes; what an agreeable place it will be when in repair? |
| 12370 | I said, O, you Abyssinian, what demon has possessed thee? |
| 12370 | I said,"For God''s sake, why mention this? |
| 12370 | I said,''You are eating; what would it be if you were to give me some?'' |
| 12370 | I said,''what is the amount? |
| 12370 | I threw myself off my horse[ on the ground], and called out for mercy, and said,''I am faultless; why are you about to kill me? |
| 12370 | I went up to him and said,''is all well?'' |
| 12370 | If it utter any thing, what can it say? |
| 12370 | If she should die, how shall I bury her? |
| 12370 | If thou wast an infidel, even then what sense is there in thy conduct? |
| 12370 | If you had not manly vigour, then why did you form so foolish a wish? |
| 12370 | In a few days I shall spend the[ promised] wealth, and how long shall I live? |
| 12370 | In a foreign country[ where I was unknown], who would trust me? |
| 12370 | In my rage and wrath I recollected the proverb, that''It is not the bullock that leaps, but the sack;[ 182] whoever has seen a sight like this?'' |
| 12370 | Is it always so at the princess''s court? |
| 12370 | It is very difficult to be generous; you are not able to support the weight of generosity, when will you attain to that station? |
| 12370 | Nothing can he do[ to harm me]; Thou alone art my help; Then to whom else should I go? |
| 12370 | Now evince some shame and modesty; have patience, and be content; what sort of mendicity is this that thy spiritual guide hath taught thee?" |
| 12370 | Now, I doubt if you are a_ Musulman_; who knows what you are? |
| 12370 | Now, whence comes the great wealth of which there is such an expenditure, and of what nature is it? |
| 12370 | O God,[ said I] what shall I now do? |
| 12370 | O, kind sir, from such a prison you have taken me out, and now wherefore this unkindness?'' |
| 12370 | Of what prophet''s sect are thou a follower? |
| 12370 | On hearing it, he became greatly surprised, and asked every one,''Who is this person who has begun to erect such edifices?'' |
| 12370 | On hearing this exclamation, I said,"O friend, what dost thou say?" |
| 12370 | On hearing this speech, the princess said,"Where is he? |
| 12370 | On hearing this verse, she smiled, and turning towards the nurse, she said,''What art thou sleepy?'' |
| 12370 | On hearing this, I asked the young merchant,"what merchant''s son art thou, and where do thy parents reside?" |
| 12370 | On seeing him, I saluted him with great respect; he returned my salutation, and said,''O friend, why hast thou raised this commotion for nothing? |
| 12370 | Shall I call this the court of Indra? |
| 12370 | She asked her attendants,''Who is the governor of the port? |
| 12370 | She praised God, and began to consider thus:"By what means can I carry those rubies to the king, and show them to him, and get my father released?" |
| 12370 | She replied,"What further justice remains[ to be done]? |
| 12370 | She said,''As you have come here, and have brought these goods with you, how much profit do you expect on them?'' |
| 12370 | So to make two of God''s own creatures eat the leavings of a dog, in what religion or creed is it lawful? |
| 12370 | Such is your brother''s treatment, and you are indifferent; is this right? |
| 12370 | That wretch was quite pleased, and said,"What is the plan?" |
| 12370 | That young man came up to me and said,"Well, my love, where to will you now escape from me?" |
| 12370 | The daughter asked,"What were the expressions? |
| 12370 | The eunuch asked him,''Is all well to- day? |
| 12370 | The fair lady jocosely said,"Why dost thou tell lies? |
| 12370 | The king asked with great complacency,''Of what country are you a princess, and for what reasons are you come here?'' |
| 12370 | The king asked,"Who is this, and what has he to say?" |
| 12370 | The king looked towards her with anger, and said,''Well, my lady, you say nothing; what is the cause of this?'' |
| 12370 | The king was surprised, and asked,"No one was pregnant[ 401] in appearance; who has brought forth a son?" |
| 12370 | The king, on seeing this scene, became greatly enraged, and reproached the_ wazir_, and said,''Hast thou brought me here to see this sight?'' |
| 12370 | The old man asked me thus:"Tell thy story; why hast thou left thy home, and wandered about alone, and of whom are you in search?" |
| 12370 | The princess advanced, and asked me,''O Persian, what wast thou doing?'' |
| 12370 | The princess got angry, and said,"I am now tired, where is your house? |
| 12370 | The young merchant thought within himself,"I have only to mind my own business; why should I to no purpose press him further on the subject?" |
| 12370 | The_ kazi_ asked me,''Why dost not thou accept thy share of thy father''s property?'' |
| 12370 | The_ wazir''s_ daughter asked,"What use would a blind son have been to you? |
| 12370 | Then I spoke,"Well said, you are a brave fellow; when I am able, I will show you the return for this kindness; what is your name?" |
| 12370 | Then the young merchant asked, thus,"If you are really a_ Musalman_ in your heart, then what is the reason of this? |
| 12370 | Then the_ khwaja_ asked the reason of this, saying,"Why do you not eat?" |
| 12370 | Then, all at once, the occurrences of last night came to her recollection; she said to herself,''Where art thou, and where this speech?'' |
| 12370 | Then, in confusion, I asked the young man,''who is this precious hag; from whence have you grubbed her up?'' |
| 12370 | There is a saying;''We have slept all night, and shall we not awake in the morning?'' |
| 12370 | They replied,''what can we do better?'' |
| 12370 | They rudely replied from within,"There is no order to open the gates at this hour; why have you come so late in the night?" |
| 12370 | Three months passed in this same manner; at last I reflected within myself,''how long will they thus remain squatted in a corner? |
| 12370 | Two or three days after this, I went to_ Mubarak_; on seeing me, he began to weep; I was surprised, and asked him, saying,"My father, is all well? |
| 12370 | Under the dagger, if one breathes awhile, what then?'' |
| 12370 | What a[ contemptible] thing is an idol that any one should worship it? |
| 12370 | What answer will you make to this accusation? |
| 12370 | What dost thou know as to who they are, from whence they have come, and where they are going? |
| 12370 | What have I to do with shares or divisions? |
| 12370 | What injury had he done to thee? |
| 12370 | What is thy religion, and what rite is this I see? |
| 12370 | What unfortunate blockhead ever comes to this enchanted city?" |
| 12370 | What wilt thou do after having accumulated so much money? |
| 12370 | Whatever is in thy heart, speak it out quite plainly?" |
| 12370 | Whatever the mother of the_ Brahmans_ has sent word of, is all true; inasmuch as it is the great idol''s decision; how can it be false?'' |
| 12370 | When I become hungry, I shall not be able to eat them nor to fill my belly; and if you give me more of them, what use will they be to me?? |
| 12370 | When I become hungry, I shall not be able to eat them nor to fill my belly; and if you give me more of them, what use will they be to me?? |
| 12370 | When I had collected my senses, I then repented[ saying to myself],"What is this you have done? |
| 12370 | When I pressed him greatly, he said,"This affair has indeed ruined me; dost thou also wish to perish by hearing it?" |
| 12370 | When dinner was over, a female servant came out from the interior[ of the seraglio] and asked,"Where is_ Bahrawar_? |
| 12370 | When he finished his meal, he said,"Say what has befallen thee?" |
| 12370 | When she weaned the child, I said to my wife,"How long shall we remain here, and how shall we get out from hence?" |
| 12370 | When the young man had eaten something, and drank a cup of wine, his senses returned; I then asked him,''where did you get these stones?'' |
| 12370 | When they brought_ Hatim_ before_ Naufal_, he asked,''Who has seized and brought him here?'' |
| 12370 | Where art thou going?" |
| 12370 | Who was such a friend to us, that we could have tarried here a moment? |
| 12370 | Why should not my brother be displeased? |
| 12370 | Will it be when I embrace his faith? |
| 12370 | Wilt thou leave thy home, fortune and country, and wander for nothing?" |
| 12370 | Wilt thou live or die?'' |
| 12370 | With this anxious solicitude I pined daily, and the colour fled from my face; but to whom could I speak[ for aid]? |
| 12370 | [ 156] What does all this mean?" |
| 12370 | [ 169] The princess smiling, said,"Where is the necessity for the hot water?" |
| 12370 | [ 207] The young man became very pressing, and said,"Sir, what have you eaten? |
| 12370 | [ 239] I cried,''O my charmer, when shall we meet again? |
| 12370 | [ 341] I determined then, in my own heart, to confine them; but if I had put them in the prison, who would have taken care of them? |
| 12370 | [ 343] After this, I asked the_ khwaja_ the history of those twelve rubies which were in the dog''s collar? |
| 12370 | [ 50] This means an impertinent, or rather a_ chaffing_, question, like our own classic interrogation,"Does your mother know you''ra out?" |
| 12370 | and if she is brought to bed, what shall I give the midwife and nurse, or how procure remedies for the lying- in woman? |
| 12370 | and what will the world say?'' |
| 12370 | are our lives become a burthen to us, that we should act so rashly?'' |
| 12370 | are you so soon tired of your old friend, that you think of going away and leaving him in such affliction? |
| 12370 | did he not fear even the great idol?'' |
| 12370 | do you enjoy yourself; but what answer will you give on the day of judgment?'' |
| 12370 | dost thou exhibit to me the temptation of thy wealth? |
| 12370 | for what art thou weeping?" |
| 12370 | hasten to get there; otherwise what do you mean to do? |
| 12370 | have you spent the money, or do you amass it?" |
| 12370 | how can I speak? |
| 12370 | is that Persian who is involved in our great idol''s wrath, dead, or does he yet live?'' |
| 12370 | is this man become mad? |
| 12370 | is thy life become a burden to thee?" |
| 12370 | leaving this old man by himself, where wast thou gone?" |
| 12370 | my heart will not mind me, and how can I have patience? |
| 12370 | of what utility are the servants of the state?" |
| 12370 | or is it a descent on the part of the fairies? |
| 12370 | to whom shall I entrust thee?" |
| 12370 | what am I able to do? |
| 12370 | what do people call this[ conduct]? |
| 12370 | what dost thou want with me?'' |
| 12370 | what dreadful words of wrath are these which you have made me hear? |
| 12370 | what folly hast thou committed, that on thine own feet thou hast walked to thy grave? |
| 12370 | what hast thou seen bad in our great idol that thou hast betaken thyself to the worship of an unseen God?'' |
| 12370 | what is the cause of your weeping?" |
| 12370 | what is thy name, that thou actest thus? |
| 12370 | what net is this that thou hast spread, and in thine own path what pit hast thou dug? |
| 12370 | what various postures does he assume?'' |
| 12370 | what[ infernal idea] entered thy mind, that thou murderedst our brother? |
| 12370 | whence have you come, and where do you intend to go?" |
| 12370 | where is he gone? |
| 12370 | whose place is this, and for what use are those figures?" |
| 12370 | why are you so sad? |
| 12370 | why, knowingly, art thou about to perish? |
| 12370 | will he favour us with some authority on that point, better than his own? |
| 12169 | ''Heu ubi siderei vultus? |
| 12169 | ''Would''st thou the young year''s blossoms and the fruits of its decline, And all by which the soul is charmed, enraptured, feasted, fed? |
| 12169 | A child, is it? |
| 12169 | A message from the sage Kanwa, did you say? |
| 12169 | ANASÚYÁ And what did he reply? |
| 12169 | Ah, my dear friend, is yonder upright reed transformed into a crooked plant by its own act, or by the force of the current? |
| 12169 | And suppose another person touches it? |
| 12169 | And to whose charge do you leave us, dearest? |
| 12169 | And what will you do, Mátali? |
| 12169 | Are my prayers Thus to be slighted? |
| 12169 | Are then my dearest hopes to be fulfilled? |
| 12169 | Are these the pair From whom the ruler of the triple world[ 126], Sovereign of gods and lord of sacrifice, Sprang into being? |
| 12169 | Are we hungry? |
| 12169 | Are we not one in heart and soul, though divided in body? |
| 12169 | Are we thirsty? |
| 12169 | But how could mortals by their own power gain admission to this sacred region? |
| 12169 | But how did the ring contrive to pass into the stomach of that carp which the fisherman caught and was cutting up? |
| 12169 | But is he in very truth my husband? |
| 12169 | But tell me, Mátali, is this joyful event known to the great Indra? |
| 12169 | But tell me, my husband, how did the remembrance of thine unfortunate wife return to thy mind? |
| 12169 | But tell me, what made you act thus towards my poor friend Má[T.]Havya? |
| 12169 | But tell us, kind Sir, why has the King prohibited the usual festivities? |
| 12169 | But the lady there-- Who can she be, whose form of matchless grace Is half concealed beneath her flowing veil? |
| 12169 | But what am I saying? |
| 12169 | But what, let me ask, was the name of the prince whom she deigned to honour with her hand? |
| 12169 | But which of these austere hermits could we ask to be the bearer of it? |
| 12169 | But why should affection so strong as his stand in need of any token of recognition? |
| 12169 | By what luck did you contrive to escape her? |
| 12169 | By what stratagem can we best secure to our friend the accomplishment of her heart''s desire both speedily and secretly? |
| 12169 | Can I by no reproaches excite your commiseration? |
| 12169 | Can it be That the dim memory of events long past, Or friendships formed in other states of being[74], Flits like a passing shadow o''er the spirit? |
| 12169 | Can it be the intensity of the heat that has affected her? |
| 12169 | Can the night Prevail to cast her shadows o''er the earth While the sun''s beams irradiate the sky? |
| 12169 | Can this be the daughter of Kanwa? |
| 12169 | Can thy steel bolts no meeter quarry find Than the warm life- blood of a harmless deer? |
| 12169 | Come, come, cheer up; why do you give way? |
| 12169 | Could, you not, dear[ S'']akoontalá, think of some pretty composition in verse, containing a delicate declaration of your love? |
| 12169 | Dear Madhukariká, am I not named after the Koïl[90]? |
| 12169 | Dear father, when shall I ever see this hallowed grove again? |
| 12169 | Dear friends, why should you trouble yourselves to fan me? |
| 12169 | Dearest[ S'']akoontalá, is the breeze raised by these broad lotus- leaves refreshing to you? |
| 12169 | Did he create them by the power of his own mind? |
| 12169 | Did it pass out of your mind as it did out of mine? |
| 12169 | Do n''t you remember? |
| 12169 | Do not mountains remain unshaken even in a gale of wind? |
| 12169 | Do not you observe? |
| 12169 | Do you begin already to show a refractory spirit? |
| 12169 | Do you give credence to this woman rather than to me, that you heap such accusations on me? |
| 12169 | Do you know, my Anasúyá, why[ S'']akoontalá gazes so intently at the jasmine? |
| 12169 | Do you really mean to assert that I ever married this lady? |
| 12169 | Do you understand the meaning of the words? |
| 12169 | Dost thou dare show a wayward spirit here? |
| 12169 | Dost thou presume to disobey? |
| 12169 | Dost thou, then, hesitate? |
| 12169 | Even though a friend Should wreathe a garland on a blind man''s brow, Will he not cast it from him as a serpent? |
| 12169 | For here, Two different duties are required of me In widely distant places; how can I In my own person satisfy them both? |
| 12169 | GAUTAMÍ Why, Nárada, my son, whence came these? |
| 12169 | Great King, why art thou silent? |
| 12169 | Has not the gossip about the King''s rejection of[ S'']akoontalá reached your ears yet? |
| 12169 | Have I not daily offered at thy shrine Innumerable vows, the only food Of thine ethereal essence? |
| 12169 | Have evil spirits power over my subjects, even in nay private apartments? |
| 12169 | Have you ever witnessed the transformation with your own eyes? |
| 12169 | Have you forgotten it? |
| 12169 | Here I am, Sir; what are your commands? |
| 12169 | Here, in this hallowed region? |
| 12169 | Holy father, what are your commands? |
| 12169 | How can I be otherwise than inconsolable, when I call to mind the agonized demeanour of the dear one on the occasion of my disowning her? |
| 12169 | How can I help fearing when some monster is twisting back my neck, and is about to snap it as he would a sugar- cane? |
| 12169 | How can thy arrows be so sharp when they are pointed with flowers? |
| 12169 | How can we deliver you? |
| 12169 | How can we ever return to it? |
| 12169 | How can you say so, when I see your Majesty before me at this moment? |
| 12169 | How could I think of polluting my lips by the mention of a wretch who had the cruelty to desert his lawful wife? |
| 12169 | How else could my husband, who was ever of a compassionate disposition, have acted so unfeelingly? |
| 12169 | How is it that I see no preparations in the King''s household for celebrating the great vernal festival[89]? |
| 12169 | How is it that the sight of this made me sensible of emotions inconsistent with religious vows? |
| 12169 | How now shall I reply? |
| 12169 | How say you? |
| 12169 | How shall we ever cure him? |
| 12169 | How so? |
| 12169 | How so? |
| 12169 | How so? |
| 12169 | How so? |
| 12169 | How then shall I arrive at the truth? |
| 12169 | How would a mortal to such charms give birth? |
| 12169 | How''s that? |
| 12169 | How''s this? |
| 12169 | How''s this? |
| 12169 | How, then, can this friend of yours be called his daughter? |
| 12169 | I am broad awake, but what shall I do? |
| 12169 | I trust all is well with your devotional rites[24]? |
| 12169 | If he be not the son of the great sage, of what family does he come, may I ask? |
| 12169 | If thou art really what the King proclaims thee, How can thy father e''er receive thee back Into his house and home? |
| 12169 | In which direction, Mátali, is Ka[s'']yapa''s sacred retreat? |
| 12169 | Is it becoming in a monarch to depart from the rules of justice, because he repents of his engagements? |
| 12169 | Is it meet that thou Should''st aim thy shafts at thy true votary''s heart, Drawing thy bow- string even to thy ear? |
| 12169 | Is it not your special office as a King to remove the suffering of your subjects who are in trouble? |
| 12169 | Is not this very ring a proof that what has been lost may be unexpectedly found? |
| 12169 | Is our very marriage to be called in question by my own husband? |
| 12169 | Is that remark aimed at me? |
| 12169 | Is the Chief of your Society now at home? |
| 12169 | Is the priest Who kills the animal for sacrifice Therefore deemed cruel? |
| 12169 | Is this the way to cheer your friend at a time when she needs your support and consolation? |
| 12169 | It my entire approval; but what says[ S'']akoontalá? |
| 12169 | Kind Sir, could you come hither a moment and help me to release the young lion from the clutch of this child who is teasing him in boyish play? |
| 12169 | Know you not that we cherish them in this hermitage as if they were our own children? |
| 12169 | Listen to me, thou favourite guest of flowering plants; why give thyself the trouble of hovering here? |
| 12169 | Lives the man Whom bounteous heaven has destined to espouse her? |
| 12169 | May I be allowed, in my turn, to ask you maidens a few particulars respecting your friend? |
| 12169 | Most veracious Bráhman, grant that you are in the right, what end would be gained by betraying this lady? |
| 12169 | Mother, who is this man that has been kissing me and calling me his son? |
| 12169 | Mother, who is this man? |
| 12169 | Must you also forsake me, regardless of my tears and lamentations? |
| 12169 | My child, is the fever of thy limbs allayed? |
| 12169 | My dear Má[T.]Havya, are not you full of longing to see[ S'']akoontalá? |
| 12169 | My dear girl, what can you mean? |
| 12169 | My father, must Priyamvadá and Anasúyá really return with you? |
| 12169 | My father, see you there my pet deer, grazing close to the hermitage? |
| 12169 | My revered husband, should not the intelligence be conveyed to Kanwa, that his daughter''s wishes are fulfilled, and her happiness complete? |
| 12169 | Now that the holy men have completed their rites, and have no more need of my services, how shall I dispel my melancholy? |
| 12169 | Now, master, what think you of my way of getting a livelihood? |
| 12169 | O my heart, why this throbbing? |
| 12169 | Observe:-- What suitable communion could there be Between a monarch and a rustic girl? |
| 12169 | Or ever dwell with these her cherished fawns, Whose eyes, in lustre vying with her own, Return her gaze of sisterly affection? |
| 12169 | Painted? |
| 12169 | Parabhritiká, what are you saying there to yourself? |
| 12169 | Pray, how did the ring ever come upon her hand at all? |
| 12169 | Pray, what authority have you over me, either to send me away or keep me back? |
| 12169 | Pray, why does the Queen cover her lips with the tips of her fingers, bright as the blossom of a lily, as if she were afraid of something? |
| 12169 | Scoundrel, who ever asked you, pray, for a history of your birth and parentage? |
| 12169 | Serenest peace is in this calm retreat, By passion''s breath unruffled; what portends My throbbing arm[18]? |
| 12169 | Shall I stand here unwelcomed-- even I, A very mine of penitential merit, Worthy of all respect? |
| 12169 | Shalt thou, rash maid, Thus set at nought the ever sacred ties Of hospitality? |
| 12169 | Since his feeling towards me has undergone a complete revolution, what will it avail to revive old recollections? |
| 12169 | Tell me, Mátali, what is the range of mountains which, like a bank of clouds illumined by the setting sun, pours down a stream of gold? |
| 12169 | Tell me, Vriddha-[S'']ákalya, how is the divine son of Maríchi now engaged? |
| 12169 | Tell me, in which path of the seven winds are we now moving? |
| 12169 | Tell me, must I rather be The base disowner of my wedded wife, Or the defiling and defiled adulterer? |
| 12169 | Tell me:--I see three female figures drawn on the canvas, and all of them beautiful; which of the three is her Majesty[ S'']akoontalá? |
| 12169 | The whole affair is now public; why should I not speak of it? |
| 12169 | Think you that a descendant of the mighty Puru could fix his affections on an unlawful object? |
| 12169 | Vetravatí, did you observe the queen Vasumatí coming in this direction? |
| 12169 | Vetravatí, what can possibly be the message that the venerable Kanwa has sent me by these hermits? |
| 12169 | Well might he doubt His title to thy love; but how could''st thou Believe thy beauty powerless to subdue him? |
| 12169 | Well, but tell me, did she look at all kindly upon you? |
| 12169 | Well, well, what happened then? |
| 12169 | Well, what was your reply? |
| 12169 | What Say you?--that[ S'']akoontalá is suffering from fever produced by exposure to the sun, and that this ointment is to cool her burning frame? |
| 12169 | What answer, then, can I possibly give you when I do not believe myself to be her husband, and I plainly see that she is soon to become a mother? |
| 12169 | What are their commands? |
| 12169 | What are you about, breaking off those mango- blossoms, when the King has forbidden the celebration of the spring festival? |
| 12169 | What are your Majesty''s commands? |
| 12169 | What can be the reason? |
| 12169 | What can this be, fastened to my dress? |
| 12169 | What can you do better than engage the attention of the audience by some captivating melody? |
| 12169 | What course, revered Sir? |
| 12169 | What do you mean by detaining the King, who must be anxious to return to his royal consorts after so long a separation? |
| 12169 | What excites your surprise, my good woman? |
| 12169 | What has happened now? |
| 12169 | What have we here? |
| 12169 | What if he were? |
| 12169 | What is it? |
| 12169 | What is that? |
| 12169 | What is to be done? |
| 12169 | What is to be done? |
| 12169 | What is to be done? |
| 12169 | What is to be done? |
| 12169 | What is unknown to the gods? |
| 12169 | What makes you think so? |
| 12169 | What makes you think so? |
| 12169 | What man in his senses would intercept with the skirt of his robe the bright rays of the autumnal moon, which alone can allay the fever of his body? |
| 12169 | What now? |
| 12169 | What of that? |
| 12169 | What other can I desire? |
| 12169 | What other favour can I bestow on thee, my son? |
| 12169 | What sayest thou? |
| 12169 | What shall I do? |
| 12169 | What strange proposal is this? |
| 12169 | What subject shall we select for representation, that we may ensure a continuance of their favour? |
| 12169 | What then? |
| 12169 | What thinks Gautamí of this advice? |
| 12169 | What were you going to ask? |
| 12169 | What, think you, will Father Kanwa say when he hears what has occurred? |
| 12169 | When? |
| 12169 | Where is it? |
| 12169 | Where? |
| 12169 | Wherefore this causeless throbbing, O mine arm[18]? |
| 12169 | Which among the seasons shall I select as the subject of my song? |
| 12169 | Which of the two evils involves the greater or less sin? |
| 12169 | Which should you imagine to be intended for her? |
| 12169 | While all around I view Things that recall her image, can I quit This bower, e''en though its living be fled? |
| 12169 | Whither now shall I betake myself? |
| 12169 | Who can it be whose behaviour calls for such a rebuke? |
| 12169 | Who can it be? |
| 12169 | Who can this person be, whose lively yet dignified manner, and polite conversation, bespeak him a man of high rank? |
| 12169 | Who dares disturb our penitential rites When thou art our protector? |
| 12169 | Who dares insult the worthy Má[t.]havya? |
| 12169 | Who else would have dared to lay a finger on a wife, the idol of her husband? |
| 12169 | Who else would hesitate for a moment when good fortune offered for his acceptance a form of such rare beauty? |
| 12169 | Who will care for us when you are gone? |
| 12169 | Who would think of watering a tender jasmine with hot water? |
| 12169 | Who, then, informed the holy father of what passed in his absence? |
| 12169 | Why delay, when everything is ready? |
| 12169 | Why did you try to prevent my touching it? |
| 12169 | Why do you lay the blame on me? |
| 12169 | Why give so little heed to your ailment? |
| 12169 | Why need we wonder if the beautiful constellation Vi[s'']ákhá pines to be united with the Moon[53]? |
| 12169 | Why need you both go? |
| 12169 | Why not the same, Sir, announced by you at first? |
| 12169 | Why not, pray? |
| 12169 | Why should I doubt it? |
| 12169 | Why should it whisper here Of happy love? |
| 12169 | Why so? |
| 12169 | Why so? |
| 12169 | Why this fear of offending your relations, timid maid? |
| 12169 | Why, Priyamvadá, for whose use are you carrying that ointment of Usíra- root and those lotus- leaves with fibres attached to them? |
| 12169 | Why, what has paralysed your limbs? |
| 12169 | Why? |
| 12169 | Wilful woman, dost thou seek to be independent of thy lord? |
| 12169 | Will she be bound by solitary vows Opposed to love, till her espousals only? |
| 12169 | Will your Majesty deign to hear it? |
| 12169 | Would it not be better to fetch the worthy Má[t.]havya from the Palace of Clouds to comfort him? |
| 12169 | Would''st thou the Earth and Heaven itself in one sole name combine? |
| 12169 | Yet what marvel is it That thou should''st lack discernment? |
| 12169 | Yet why should not Sánumatí''s prediction be verified? |
| 12169 | You are the King, are you not? |
| 12169 | You have heard nothing of it? |
| 12169 | You judge correctly And now, what are your commands? |
| 12169 | You naughty child, why do you tease the animals? |
| 12169 | [ S'']ÁRNGARAVA What do I hear? |
| 12169 | [ S'']árngarava and the others? |
| 12169 | [_ Aloud_] Your kind words, noble Sir, fill me with confidence, and prompt me to inquire of what regal family our noble guest is the ornament? |
| 12169 | _ Am not I named after the Koïl?_ Compare note 66. |
| 12169 | a messenger from the venerable Queen? |
| 12169 | and does not the Koïl sing for joy at the first appearance of the mango- blossom? |
| 12169 | and fix thy thoughts Upon the cherished object of thy love, While I am present? |
| 12169 | and what induced a person so delicately nurtured to expose himself to the fatigue of visiting this grove of penance? |
| 12169 | are we, then, descended from the same ancestry? |
| 12169 | can this indeed be my[ S'']akoontalá? |
| 12169 | dares he defy me to my face? |
| 12169 | drive off the impudent insect, will you? |
| 12169 | hast thou no pity for me? |
| 12169 | have they both really left me? |
| 12169 | heard''st thou not the answer of the trees, Our sylvan sisters, warbled in the note Of the melodious Koïl[66]? |
| 12169 | is his mother''s name[ S'']akoontalá? |
| 12169 | is it not enough to have been betrayed by this perfidious man? |
| 12169 | is spring really come? |
| 12169 | is this to be the end of all my bright visions of wedded happiness? |
| 12169 | my dear Má[T.]Havya, Was it a dream? |
| 12169 | my dear Má[T.]Havya, why am I doomed to be the victim of perpetual disappointment? |
| 12169 | my dear friend, why were you so ill- natured as to tell me the truth? |
| 12169 | my dear husband, is that the Lost Ring? |
| 12169 | or did destiny, Jealous of my good actions, mar their fruit, And rob me of their guerdon? |
| 12169 | or did some magic dire, Dulling my senses with a strange delusion, O''ercome my spirit? |
| 12169 | or does my heart suggest the true cause of her malady? |
| 12169 | poor child, what will she do here with a cruel husband who casts her from him? |
| 12169 | risusque et murmura soli Intellecta mihi?'' |
| 12169 | shall I make myself known, or shall I still disguise my real rank? |
| 12169 | then I suppose the King took you for some fine Bráhman, and made you a present of it? |
| 12169 | ubi verba ligatis Imperfecta sonis? |
| 12169 | what are we to do? |
| 12169 | what country is now mourning his absence? |
| 12169 | what means this throbbing of my right eyelid? |
| 11310 | And what is this important letter about? |
| 11310 | And what, pray, are you doing in my wood? |
| 11310 | Are you sure? |
| 11310 | But where can you have been, not to have heard the terrible news about the ruler of this land? |
| 11310 | Can you tell me that? |
| 11310 | Could it possibly be,thought the king,"that Kadali- Garbha had deceived him? |
| 11310 | Do you not know that he died yesterday? |
| 11310 | How in the world should I get there? |
| 11310 | Is all well with my lord? |
| 11310 | Is my dear lord still alive? |
| 11310 | It seems a pity to fight,he said,"why do n''t you race for the things, and let whichever wins the race have them? |
| 11310 | My dear little friend,she said,"do you not think it is high time to keep your promise and set me free?" |
| 11310 | Now, what good can he do? 11310 What are those things?" |
| 11310 | What shall I do? 11310 Whatever has happened to you?" |
| 11310 | Who are you, and who is that lovely girl? |
| 11310 | Why did n''t I think of it myself? |
| 11310 | Why do you want the beetle? 11310 Again Agni- Sikha wondered if he were dreaming, or if he were under some strange spell and did not really know who he was? 11310 Am I a robber? 11310 Am I not a clever father to have found all that in the forest? 11310 And what should I do if any harm came to my dear one? |
| 11310 | Are those who are alike or unlike in character more likely to remain friends? |
| 11310 | But,"she added, as her eyes filled with tears,"will not my lord tell me why he no longer trusts his wife, who loves him with all her heart?" |
| 11310 | CHAPTER VI The wicked woman went back to the palace, thinking all the way to herself,"How can I get a proof of what is not true?" |
| 11310 | Can a friendship be a true one if the motive for it is self- interest? |
| 11310 | Can an animal be blamed for acting according to its nature? |
| 11310 | Can anyone be a miser about other things as well as money and jewels? |
| 11310 | Can the laws of nature ever really be broken? |
| 11310 | Can true love suspect the loved one of evil? |
| 11310 | Can you describe just how Kadali- Garbha felt when she saw the king? |
| 11310 | Can you discover any hidden meaning in the use of earth, water, thorns and fire, to stop the course of the wicked magician? |

| 11310 | Ought Kadali- Garbha to have told the king about the mustard seed? |

| 11310 | asked the king; and she answered laughing,"Of course, I am: how could I be anything but sure? |
| 11310 | he cried;"what do you think of that? |
| 11310 | she whispered,"and is there anything I can do to help him?" |
| 2518 | ''What would happen to the young man then?'' 2518 Am I like a vegetable marrow, grown in your garden, that you want to feel me all round to see how soft I am?" |
| 2518 | And how could I find her a suitable husband? |
| 2518 | And you have come back? 2518 But why did father send me?" |
| 2518 | But why did you not give her in marriage? |
| 2518 | Can you tell me that? |
| 2518 | Could n''t you stop after having done us an irreparable injury? |
| 2518 | Did I ever do you any harm? |
| 2518 | Did you die, Auntie? |
| 2518 | Do you not know that twelve years have passed by? |
| 2518 | Gracious goodness,cried Hemangini,"what are you sighing for? |
| 2518 | Had not you better,said I,"consult some one more competent to decide? |
| 2518 | Have they come to arrest you because you subscribed to the Congress fund? |
| 2518 | Have you done with the flowers? 2518 He is n''t going to grow a tail,"said Labanya,"by becoming a Rai Bahadur, is he? |
| 2518 | How can there be,he managed to say,"any illness within your jurisdiction, since you yourself are the Goddess of Health?" |
| 2518 | How could you expect,asked his aunt,"a girl of decent family to come and live in your house without marriage?" |
| 2518 | Is it necessary? |
| 2518 | Is that all? |
| 2518 | Must I contradict every little thing they choose to say against me? |
| 2518 | My daughter-- my only child- what harm had she done your father? 2518 My husband said:''What is all this wild, mad talk? |
| 2518 | Of course,she answered almost impatiently,"of course, God is with them: otherwise, how could they go on living at all? |
| 2518 | Oh I was n''t it nice of her to come without any invitation? 2518 That''s what I am afraid of, you think, do you? |
| 2518 | Trying to see me? |
| 2518 | Was I wrong, Kumo? |
| 2518 | What are you doing? |
| 2518 | What do you think, Father? 2518 What else?" |
| 2518 | What have I done? |
| 2518 | What have you been doing,she said, with evident vexation,"that my God should make you undertake such drudgery? |
| 2518 | What is this? |
| 2518 | What news, my son? |
| 2518 | What will the wretched woman say next? |
| 2518 | What? |
| 2518 | When did you come, Rahmun? |
| 2518 | Where are you off to? |
| 2518 | Where have I been lacking? 2518 Where shall I go, Master?" |
| 2518 | Who was it then? |
| 2518 | Why did n''t you tell me long ago? |
| 2518 | Why have you brought me here before your throne, my God? 2518 Why have you told the secret now?" |
| 2518 | Why,they asked slowly,"are you not moving according to the Rules?" |
| 2518 | You still call him elder brother? |
| 2518 | ''What do you mean, you silly child,''I rebuked her,''how can we back out now, when everything has been settled?'' |
| 2518 | ''What nonsense,''replied I,''the boy is well- nigh mad as it were, what''s the use of disclosing all these complications to him? |
| 2518 | ''When did he give you this advice?'' |
| 2518 | A few moments later I heard a familiar footstep, and the question,"Kumo, how are you?" |
| 2518 | Ah, yes, I am so delighted to hear it I And the dear Mem Sahib, is she quite well too? |
| 2518 | Also, if her funeral rites had not been finished, where had the men gone who should burn her? |
| 2518 | Am I of the earth? |
| 2518 | And Hari Charan Babu-- I''ve not seen him for a long time-- I hope he is not ill. What''s the matter with Rakkhal? |
| 2518 | And already the corner of her little sari was stuffed with almonds and raisins, the gift of her visitor,"Why did you give her those?" |
| 2518 | And besides, what might not have happened to her in these eight years? |
| 2518 | And every day the Brahman''s son would ask;"Who are you?" |
| 2518 | And pray who is Ich- cha?" |
| 2518 | And should their heads be placed south- west, north- west, or only north- east? |
| 2518 | And the other answered angrily:"What do I care about that? |
| 2518 | And the queen pines away with grief and cries:"Is my golden daughter destined to die unmarried? |
| 2518 | And then she held my hand and said:"What do you think, dear?" |
| 2518 | And then-- where could an old man like Raicharan get such a boy from? |
| 2518 | And why should his faithful servant deceive him for nothing? |
| 2518 | And, er-- er, how are the ladies of your family?" |
| 2518 | Anybody there? |
| 2518 | Are quite well? |
| 2518 | Are we not your own kin? |
| 2518 | Are you hypnotising me?" |
| 2518 | Artukul tried to reason his wife out of this wholly unjust suspicion:"Why on earth,"he said,"should he commit such a crime as that?" |
| 2518 | As he was about to leave, he asked:"And where is the little girl, sir?" |
| 2518 | As she had neither father nor mother, how could he desert her? |
| 2518 | At last Hemanta clasped both the hands of his wife, and, shaking them gently, said:"Kusum, where are you? |
| 2518 | At last he asked his queen:"Pray, who is this girl whose beauty shines as the gold image of the goddess? |
| 2518 | At last he smiled and said:"Little one, are you going to your father- in- law''s house?" |
| 2518 | At last, when I said that I would try to bring about a marriage, she asked me:''How can it be?'' |
| 2518 | At once he turned to go; but as he reached the door he hesitated, and said:"May I not see the little one, sir, for a moment?" |
| 2518 | At this point I came up close to my wise Grannie and asked her eagerly:"What then?" |
| 2518 | Babu, what nonsense are you talking?" |
| 2518 | Beni, the head man of our village, laughed at me for my devotion, and said:''Why do you waste all this devotion on Him? |
| 2518 | But he stammered and hesitated, and said at last in a nervous, stupid way:"Do you really think so? |
| 2518 | But his aunt said:"Abinash, my dear, what are you running away for? |
| 2518 | But how hate you come here, sister? |
| 2518 | But she would not show it, and with ready tact replied:"Are you going there?" |
| 2518 | But what about me? |
| 2518 | But what is that to me? |
| 2518 | But what wickedness is in your heart?" |
| 2518 | By what cool spring, under the shade of what date- groves, wast thou born-- in the lap of what homeless wanderer in the desert? |
| 2518 | Controlling himself with a gigantic effort, Hemanta said:"What will become of this girl whom I shall abandon now? |
| 2518 | Could a jackal have taken it? |
| 2518 | Could you perhaps come another day?" |
| 2518 | Despite the storm and rain I ran to him and asked:"Ho, Meher Ali, what is false?" |
| 2518 | Do n''t you know He is reviled up and down the countryside?'' |
| 2518 | Do you imagine, child, that I am capable of committing a girl- murder and a Brahmin- murder at my age?'' |
| 2518 | Do you not know your own daughter?" |
| 2518 | Do you think I am mad enough to bring a slave into my house, and bid her share the throne with this my Goddess?" |
| 2518 | Do you think I am such a baby as to be afraid of an operation?" |
| 2518 | Do you think I asked you to marry again for your own sordid pleasure? |
| 2518 | Do you think that man knows better than you do about my eyes?" |
| 2518 | Especially, as there is not the slightest risk of its ever leaking out, why go out of the way to make a fellow miserable for life?'' |
| 2518 | First of all, every one would ask why the king remained twelve years in the forest? |
| 2518 | First, to what caste should these unclassed strangers belong? |
| 2518 | From a side room Nilratan came out, and said in an irritated manner:"Bakshish? |
| 2518 | Going down to the river Hemangini asked me:"Why do n''t you have children?" |
| 2518 | Good heavens!--What would he do? |
| 2518 | Grannie said;"Then..."But what is the use of going on any further with the story? |
| 2518 | Had he not at great expense laid out a splendid race- course in a town, which was a fashionable resort of Europeans? |
| 2518 | Had n''t you better send him home?" |
| 2518 | Had they the fairer hue and bright complexion of the Hearts, or was theirs the darker complexion of the Clubs? |
| 2518 | Have you heard? |
| 2518 | He blinks at the author through his scientific spectacles, and asks again:"Which Ajatasatru?" |
| 2518 | He does n''t know anything, does he?" |
| 2518 | He repeated that question in his mighty voice:"What is there superior to words?" |
| 2518 | He said:"Eh?" |
| 2518 | He turned, and looked in my face, and asked me:''Why did he give you such a behest?'' |
| 2518 | Hemangini said to her:"When are you thinking of going back, Aunt?" |
| 2518 | His companions always asked him:"Who is that beautiful lady in the palace with the seven wings?" |
| 2518 | His wife stilled her curiosity for a long time; then she came to his couch and demanded:"What did you hear?" |
| 2518 | How can I afford, with all my family, to buy you new books five times a month?" |
| 2518 | How can I return home? |
| 2518 | How can we explain the detention of a woman belonging to another house?" |
| 2518 | How is Shashi? |
| 2518 | How is he? |
| 2518 | How long wilt thou try me, my God, how long?" |
| 2518 | How on earth was that difficulty to be met? |
| 2518 | I asked:"Is there no means whatever of my release?" |
| 2518 | I do n''t know my own friend? |
| 2518 | I forgot that he was a poor Cabuli fruit- seller, while I was-- but no, what was I more than he? |
| 2518 | I jumped up and down in my bed and clutched at the bolster more tightly than ever and said:"What then?" |
| 2518 | I laughed away his seriousness:"Are you sure you can beat us women even in vanity?" |
| 2518 | I remember one day, when a friend of mine came in, and said to me:"Kumo, why do n''t you feel angry? |
| 2518 | I stood before him, and cried aloud:"Why are you telling me lies?" |
| 2518 | I was startled by her question, and answered:"How can I tell? |
| 2518 | II Returning from without, Hemanta asked his wife:"Is it true?" |
| 2518 | If I fail in this, then why am I your wife, and why did I ever worship my God?" |
| 2518 | In anguished tones she said:"Sister, why do you dread me? |
| 2518 | In the afternoon, when my husband got up from sleep, he asked me:"Why do you look so pale?" |
| 2518 | Is it true that they are hard upon you?" |
| 2518 | Is that so?" |
| 2518 | Is that true, my God? |
| 2518 | It sounds like a romance, does n''t it? |
| 2518 | Jogmaya asked:"Well?" |
| 2518 | Jogmaya snapped:"May I be permitted to hear how?" |
| 2518 | Kadambini said:"Where is my father- in- law''s house?" |
| 2518 | Kadambini stared solemnly at Jogmaya, and said:"What have I to do with people?" |
| 2518 | LIVING OR DEAD? |
| 2518 | Labanya banished all traces of inward merriment from her face, and kept on enquiring in anxious tones:"What has happened to you? |
| 2518 | Labanya exclaimed again in feigned surprise:"Which of your friends wrote it now? |
| 2518 | Labanya struck her forehead with her palm and gasped out:"What-- have you-- done?" |
| 2518 | May I go home?" |
| 2518 | My Lord, tell me truly,--wasn''t it a mere infatuation?" |
| 2518 | My heart suddenly ceased to throb, and I asked with choking voice:"What then?" |
| 2518 | My husband stammered out:"What-- what lies have I told you?" |
| 2518 | My maid entered my room one morning, and asked me:"What is all this preparation going on at the landing on the river? |
| 2518 | Nabendu blurted out:"Do you suppose I pass sleepless nights through fear of that?" |
| 2518 | Nabendu felt a little disconcerted at this, and said:"Why? |
| 2518 | Nabendu said, feeling very small:"Oh, they are poor men-- what''s the harm of giving them something?" |
| 2518 | Nevertheless the magistrate in him asked:"Have you any proofs?" |
| 2518 | Oh, come-- is it the Ticket Collector, or the hide merchant, or is it the drum- major of the Fort?" |
| 2518 | Oh, how can I persuade you that I am not dead? |
| 2518 | Oh, how can I rescue thee? |
| 2518 | One day he summoned up all his courage, and asked his uncle:"Uncle, when can I go home?" |
| 2518 | Or were they merely lower- caste people, to be ranked with the Nines and Tens? |
| 2518 | Phatik answered indignantly:"No, I have n''t; who told you that?" |
| 2518 | Phatik opened his eyes flushed with fever, and looked up to the ceiling, and said vacantly:"Uncle, have the holidays come yet? |
| 2518 | Quite well, did you say? |
| 2518 | Raicharan said:"How could there be any proof of such a deed? |
| 2518 | Secondly, how could there be a marriage between a princess of the Warrior Caste and a boy of the priestly Brahman Caste? |
| 2518 | Secondly, what was their clan? |
| 2518 | Secondly, why should the king''s daughter remain unmarried all that while? |
| 2518 | She at once therefore proceeded to the next question:"Are you going to the father- in- law''s house?" |
| 2518 | She began to upbraid him:"You, do you call yourself a man? |
| 2518 | She called out angrily:"So you have been hitting Makhan again?" |
| 2518 | Should they rank with the Court Cards? |
| 2518 | So soon? |
| 2518 | So with a throb of joy and delight, I asked Grannie:"What then?" |
| 2518 | The Devotee, noticing my sign of surprise, said:"My God, why should I come to you at all, if I could not take your food?" |
| 2518 | The King of Spades is saying;"Why on earth is that Ace of Clubs always straining his neck and strutting about like a peacock? |
| 2518 | The Magistrate pointed to a chair with his finger, and without raising his eyes from the paper before him said:"What can I do for you, Babu?" |
| 2518 | The boy of seven did not know that, if there were some"What then?" |
| 2518 | The king would put him the question;"Is it the business of the bee merely to hum in the court of the spring?" |
| 2518 | The poet, with his eyes shut, said;"My lady, have you taken pity upon your servant at last and come to see him?" |
| 2518 | The two Companions smiled a knowing smile, and said:"Is that really so, Prince?" |
| 2518 | Then I sat up, and said, painfully, forcing myself to speak the words:"Why should I not bless you? |
| 2518 | Then the Cabuliwallah, not to be behindhand, would take his turn:"Well, little one, and when are you going to the father- in- law''s house?" |
| 2518 | Then, after that, pray what was the use of my coming to you yourself? |
| 2518 | They apply the searchlight of science to its legendary haze and ask:"Which king?" |
| 2518 | Thirdly, what food should they take? |
| 2518 | This letter also was paraded before his sister- in- law, for did it not assert that he was no mean, contemptible scallywag, but a man of real worth? |
| 2518 | VI Where are vanished now their prim, round, regular, complacent features? |
| 2518 | Very slowly Kadambini said:"What have I to do with you? |
| 2518 | Was it so very absurd that this big man should be able to carry off a tiny child? |
| 2518 | Was it to increase the strength of the Congress, that you brought this wretch into the world? |
| 2518 | Was it, then, not true that there was slavery in Cabul? |
| 2518 | We must give it them pretty hot, must n''t we?" |
| 2518 | Were children never kidnapped? |
| 2518 | What am I else but that,--just an ordinary woman? |
| 2518 | What consolation should I have had then? |
| 2518 | What do you say to that?" |
| 2518 | What drowning beauty, what incarnate passion shall I drag to the shore from this wild eddy of dreams? |
| 2518 | What for?" |
| 2518 | What harm has my grandfather done to you? |
| 2518 | What will people say?" |
| 2518 | What''s the matter?" |
| 2518 | Whence arose this inconsolable grief? |
| 2518 | Where didst thou flourish and when? |
| 2518 | Where has he drifted? |
| 2518 | Where have you come from?" |
| 2518 | Where is Master going?" |
| 2518 | Where is he?" |
| 2518 | Wherever are you going, alone and in this guise?" |
| 2518 | Who advises you to leave the world?'' |
| 2518 | Who am I? |
| 2518 | Who bore you such ill- will? |
| 2518 | Who can interfere with a king''s command? |
| 2518 | Who knows?" |
| 2518 | Who told you to go yourself? |
| 2518 | Who will look after him now as I did?" |
| 2518 | Who will take in an old man as a servant?" |
| 2518 | Who would see it? |
| 2518 | Whom could I console when no one was by? |
| 2518 | Whose daughter is she?" |
| 2518 | Whose was this intense agony of sorrow? |
| 2518 | Why did I come? |
| 2518 | Why did n''t you call in an Indian doctor? |
| 2518 | Why do they abuse you, my God?" |
| 2518 | Why do you show yourself to him? |
| 2518 | Why do you want another wife?" |
| 2518 | Why have you come here? |
| 2518 | Why have you come to deceive him? |
| 2518 | Why should I make it worse by allowing hatred to grow up against my husband?" |
| 2518 | Why should you feel so very humiliated?" |
| 2518 | Why, then, do you now come advising me about Medicine?" |
| 2518 | Will you give them to her?" |
| 2518 | With folded hands, he said piteously:"Is this right? |
| 2518 | With whom should they live and sleep? |
| 2518 | Without paying much attention to the concluding remarks of Peari Sankar, Hemanta asked:"Did not Kusum object to this marriage?" |
| 2518 | Would you give her food and shelter?" |
| 2518 | You are not ill, I hope?" |
| 2518 | You understand the business to some extent now, do n''t you? |
| 2518 | and Dada-- is he all right? |
| 2518 | and the little children- are they quite well also? |
| 2518 | er-- by the way, how is the Chota Lord Sahib? |
| 2518 | how could you take it from him?" |
| 2518 | roared out Harihar,"would you lose your caste, sir?" |
| 2518 | said I,"why did you take such a terrible oath? |
| 2518 | what are you doing? |
| 2518 | what can a good doctor do more than I am doing? |
| 2518 | what relation is Mother to you?" |
| 2518 | whither shall I go?" |
| 2518 | whither shall I go?" |
| 2518 | would you hit your own mother?" |
| 52309 | Is this a fancy of mine? 52309 Where did you get these?" |
| 52309 | Where would you go? 52309 Why should you make way with yourself? |
| 52309 | ***** When he had told this story, the goblin asked:"O King, which of them was the most delicate?" |
| 52309 | ***** When he had told this story, the goblin said:"O King, when the king was so happy, why should the counsellor''s heart break? |
| 52309 | ***** When he had told this story, the goblin said:"O King, who murdered the Brahman? |
| 52309 | ***** When the goblin had told this story on the road in the night, he said:"O King, which was the most foolish among those who died for love? |
| 52309 | ***** When the goblin had told this story, he asked King Triple- victory:"O King, which of all these was the most worthy? |
| 52309 | ***** When the goblin had told this story, he asked the king:"O King, when they were mingled in this way, which should be her husband? |
| 52309 | ***** When the goblin had told this strange story, he asked the king:"O King, why did the boy laugh at the moment of death? |
| 52309 | A star- gazer and a chariot- maker work for other people, do they not?" |
| 52309 | And Calamity seemed to be looking on, thinking:"Whom shall I embrace?" |
| 52309 | And Cloud- banner said:"My son, I only want the kingdom for you, and if you give it up from benevolent motives, what good is it to me? |
| 52309 | And Hero was amazed, and timidly asked her:"Who are you, and why do you weep?" |
| 52309 | And King Shudraka saw all this and went back without being seen himself, and climbed to the roof, and called:"Who is there at the gate?" |
| 52309 | And again the king thought to test his behaviour, and climbing to the roof he called out toward the palace gate:"Who is there?" |
| 52309 | And as he walked along, the goblin on his shoulder said to him again:"O King, why do you take such pains for that wretched monk? |
| 52309 | And as soon as the counsellor was refreshed, the king said:"Counsellor, why did you leave us? |
| 52309 | And as to his knowledge of the speech of beasts and birds, of what practical use is it? |
| 52309 | And he also thought:''Why does this girl reject kings and fall in love with a thief like me? |
| 52309 | And he asked her:"What does it mean, dearest? |
| 52309 | And he ran between them and spoke again to the agitated bird:"O Garuda, what madness is this? |
| 52309 | And he thought:"If I am born a prince, why am I so poor? |
| 52309 | And he thought:"Who is this who laments so piteously, as if in deep despair? |
| 52309 | And he wondered:"Oh, where has my wife gone? |
| 52309 | And her mother and father were surprised and asked her:"Why did you come back so soon, and in this condition?" |
| 52309 | And how can you blame either or both of the charitable people who gave food to a guest who arrived unexpectedly? |
| 52309 | And if I am to be poor, why did God give me so many desires? |
| 52309 | And if this is a usual occurrence at sea, why do not other goddesses arise?" |
| 52309 | And she thought:"Who can he be in this forest? |
| 52309 | And the concealed thief saw it all and thought:"What has the wicked woman done? |
| 52309 | And the counsellor''s son said to the old woman:"Old woman, do you know anybody named Bite in this city?" |
| 52309 | And the goblin on his shoulder saw that he was silent and said:"O King, why are you so obstinate? |
| 52309 | And the goblin spoke to him again:"O King, why do you go to such pains in this cemetery at night? |
| 52309 | And the hermit said:"My boy, what is this wailing we hear? |
| 52309 | And the king fell in love with her and thought:"Who is she? |
| 52309 | And the king respectfully asked her:"My good girl, what happy family does your friend adorn? |
| 52309 | And the king said:"What can I say? |
| 52309 | And the king said:"Why are you so sad, my dear? |
| 52309 | And the king thought:"Ah, what does this mean? |
| 52309 | And the loud shouts of angry gamblers seemed to suggest the question:"Who is there that would not be fleeced here, were he the god of wealth himself?" |
| 52309 | And the prince mounted his father''s judgment throne, and when he had heard the cause of the quarrel, he asked the thrush:"How are men ungrateful? |
| 52309 | And the princess trusted him and said after a little hesitation:"My dear girl, why should I not trust you? |
| 52309 | And the spell appeared in bodily form, and said:"What shall I do?" |
| 52309 | And then she spoke to Sandal with words punctuated by smiles:"My dear, why do you not show hospitality to the fairy prince? |
| 52309 | And what child would give his body?" |
| 52309 | And what did you fall into?" |
| 52309 | And what good is a Brahman who neglects his own affairs and turns magician, despising real courage? |
| 52309 | And what good is there except helping others? |
| 52309 | And what is this hermit garb? |
| 52309 | And when he saw that he had come there so suddenly, he thought:"Oh, what does it mean? |
| 52309 | And when he saw that the culprit was dressed like a hermit, he asked him very gently:"Holy sir, where did you get this pearl necklace? |
| 52309 | And when the king saw him following, he spoke lovingly:"My good man, do you perhaps know the way we came?" |
| 52309 | And when the monk came the next day, he asked him:"Monk, why do you keep honouring me in such an expensive way? |
| 52309 | And where are they now? |
| 52309 | And where are you going?" |
| 52309 | And where did you come? |
| 52309 | And where did you stay? |
| 52309 | And why should feet fit to saunter in a court, press this thorny ground? |
| 52309 | Are men bad, or women? |
| 52309 | Are the crows to blame when the geese eat up the rice?" |
| 52309 | Are you not aware that I am a connoisseur in food? |
| 52309 | At that moment a serving- maid came into the room and said to the king:"Your Majesty, why have you come into the jaws of death? |
| 52309 | Besides, what nonsense are you talking?" |
| 52309 | Besides, you have surely heard what the poet says:''What fool would go into a house? |
| 52309 | But Cloud- chariot said to his father:"Father, how can you take your weapons and fight? |
| 52309 | But Fierce- lion said:"My son, what do you mean? |
| 52309 | But after all, who can understand the strange workings of stern necessity? |
| 52309 | But her father said:"What do you mean, my daughter? |
| 52309 | But his parents immediately said:"Son, what are you saying? |
| 52309 | But presently she rose, lamenting for the pair so unexpectedly dead, and thought:"What is my life good for now?" |
| 52309 | But the goblin said:"How could it be the king''s fault? |
| 52309 | But the goblin said:"Why not Hero, the like of whom as a servant is not to be found in the whole world? |
| 52309 | But when the eldest said this, the two younger said:"Sir, if you feel disgust, why should n''t we?" |
| 52309 | But while he reflected, Cloud- chariot said:"O king of birds, why do you stop? |
| 52309 | Can women be so dreadful as this? |
| 52309 | Did he weep or laugh?_ 117 14. |
| 52309 | Did he weep or laugh?_ Then the king went back to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder, and started. |
| 52309 | Did you understand the signs I made, or was it the counsellor''s son?" |
| 52309 | Do you not know that money is uncertain as an autumn cloud? |
| 52309 | Do you not know this, you who know things above and things below? |
| 52309 | Do you not see how gentle his appearance is?" |
| 52309 | Do you not see that I have the hood and the forked tongue? |
| 52309 | Do you not see the home of the ghosts, full of dreadful creatures, terrible in the night, wrapped in darkness as in smoke? |
| 52309 | Do you not see the rock of sacrifice wet with the blood of serpents, the terrible plaything of Death? |
| 52309 | Have you no sense about this fruitless task? |
| 52309 | Have you the rheumatism? |
| 52309 | He thought:"Is she the goddess of love, plucking the spring flowers in person? |
| 52309 | He went himself to see Good, and asked him soothingly:"What does this mean? |
| 52309 | How about generosity and that kind of thing? |
| 52309 | How can I comfort it? |
| 52309 | How can I do such a wicked thing? |
| 52309 | How can I find her? |
| 52309 | How can I partake of such a meal?" |
| 52309 | How can I save him from the king? |
| 52309 | How can I touch this loathsome thing?" |
| 52309 | How can a good counsellor be happy when his master devotes himself to a vice? |
| 52309 | How can he live then? |
| 52309 | How can it bear the pangs of being eaten by Garuda? |
| 52309 | How could I be mad enough to eat a future Buddha? |
| 52309 | How could a man in my position overlook such a transgression? |
| 52309 | How could a teacher with such powers promise falsely? |
| 52309 | How could a warrior''s daughter be given to a working- man, a weaver? |
| 52309 | How could he be so mean as to beg Garuda to destroy his own race? |
| 52309 | How could this woman have a goaty smell?" |
| 52309 | How could you bring yourself to do so harsh and loveless a thing? |
| 52309 | How could you do this thoughtless thing?" |
| 52309 | How did you come to this inaccessible under- world? |
| 52309 | How much less in the case of others? |
| 52309 | How shall I find another such master? |
| 52309 | How shall I live without you?" |
| 52309 | If I should transgress, who would be virtuous? |
| 52309 | If not, why do you talk nonsense? |
| 52309 | If the counsellor is lost, the fundamental principle is lost; how then can virtue be preserved? |
| 52309 | In this strange world who else is so brave as that, to give his son, his family, and his life for his king? |
| 52309 | Is it good manners to enter the heart of an innocent girl by force, steal her thoughts, and run away? |
| 52309 | Is n''t it possible to prepare for heaven in your own house?" |
| 52309 | Is she a goddess come to bathe in these waters? |
| 52309 | Is she angry with me? |
| 52309 | Is there no other kind of virtue except in pilgrimages? |
| 52309 | Is this a dream, or an illusion?" |
| 52309 | Is this hermit manners, to run away?" |
| 52309 | Just then the thief came up and said to the king''s men:"Why do you kill this man without any good reason? |
| 52309 | Or Gauri, separated from her husband Shiva, leading a hard life to win him again? |
| 52309 | Or a dream? |
| 52309 | Or an illusion? |
| 52309 | Or are you possessed by a devil? |
| 52309 | Or from sorrow because the king came back, and he could no longer act as king? |
| 52309 | Or how can Garuda, the heavenly bird, do such a crime? |
| 52309 | Or is she a forest goddess, come here to worship the spring- time?" |
| 52309 | Or is she playing hide- and- seek with me, to see how I will take it?" |
| 52309 | Or the favour of the goddess?" |
| 52309 | Or the lovely moon, taking a human form, and trying to be attractive in the daytime? |
| 52309 | Or to a farmer, either? |
| 52309 | Or why at her age does she torture a body as delicate as a flower with a hermit''s life in a lonely wood?" |
| 52309 | Or why is not the boy Trusty the most worthy, who showed such wonderful manhood when only a little boy? |
| 52309 | Or why should not his wife receive the most praise, who did not waver when she saw her son killed like a beast before her eyes? |
| 52309 | Otherwise, why did the fire seem cool to you? |
| 52309 | Shall I go into the fire, or go home? |
| 52309 | So Spotless went and saw how his son was acting, and said:"My son, why should you be downcast? |
| 52309 | So at night he climbed to the palace roof and cried:"Who is there at the gate?" |
| 52309 | So how can I touch it?" |
| 52309 | So now I say: What good is life to me without my children? |
| 52309 | So now why should I want to live alone? |
| 52309 | So the eldest brother straightway plucked up heart, and said:"What virtue is it which we should acquire?" |
| 52309 | So the king knew that a goblin lived in it, and said without fear:"What are you laughing about? |
| 52309 | So what shall I do now?" |
| 52309 | The brave man said:"If I had not killed the giant in the fight, who would have saved her in spite of all your pains? |
| 52309 | The wise man said:"If I had not discovered her by my wisdom, how could you have found her hiding- place? |
| 52309 | Then Cloud- chariot asked one of her friends:"My good girl, what is your friend''s sweet name? |
| 52309 | Then a voice cried from heaven:"O Hero, who else is devoted to his master as you are? |
| 52309 | Then she slowly spoke:"Who are you, sir? |
| 52309 | Then the chief of police went and asked him:"Holy sir, how did this pearl necklace come into your pupil''s hand?" |
| 52309 | Then the counsellor''s son said:"Did you not see all that she hinted with her signs? |
| 52309 | Then the goblin said reproachfully:"O King, why was not the general better? |
| 52309 | Then the king broke silence and said:"Who did the murder? |
| 52309 | Then the younger brothers said to him:"Sir, why is an intelligent man sad for lack of money? |
| 52309 | There he saw great heaps of bones, and he asked Friend- wealth:"What creatures did these heaps of bones belong to?" |
| 52309 | Therefore, as you are a wise man, tell us what you mean by embracing this dead body?" |
| 52309 | To which should the girl be given?_ 51 6. |
| 52309 | To which should the girl be given?_ 81 10. |
| 52309 | To which should the girl be given?_ Then the king went back to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder, and started. |
| 52309 | Was his wife his or the other man''s?_ 125 15. |
| 52309 | Was it from grief because he did not win the fairy himself? |
| 52309 | Was not Rama forced to abandon his good wife by popular clamour? |
| 52309 | Was the night jealous of your beauty; did she carry you away? |
| 52309 | What advantage would it be to you if all the serpents were slain at once?" |
| 52309 | What are the syllables of her name, which must be a delight to the ear? |
| 52309 | What could she do, poor woman? |
| 52309 | What do you mean by your hour for begging? |
| 52309 | What does the question mean? |
| 52309 | What family does she adorn?" |
| 52309 | What fool would begin a thing and then stop?" |
| 52309 | What good would life be to us otherwise?" |
| 52309 | What happiness is there in a life of constant mourning for your children? |
| 52309 | What high- minded man would want a kingdom after killing his relatives just for the sake of this wretched, perishable body? |
| 52309 | What is it to them, or they to it? |
| 52309 | What is the use of throwing him into a well now? |
| 52309 | What madness is this? |
| 52309 | What might she not do next?" |
| 52309 | What need of more words? |
| 52309 | What rights have you in my wife? |
| 52309 | What shall I do?" |
| 52309 | What will happen now, when he loves a fairy? |
| 52309 | What will holy men not do out of regard to those who seek aid? |
| 52309 | What would my father say if he saw me now, or any relative, or any friend? |
| 52309 | When Hero heard this, he was frightened and said:"Goddess, is there any remedy for this, any way in which the king might be saved?" |
| 52309 | When Lotus- lake saw that terrible fall, he cried:"Oh, what does it mean?" |
| 52309 | When so good a wife is gone, how could I think of another?" |
| 52309 | When the counsellor was rested, the merchant asked him:"Who are you? |
| 52309 | When the goblin had told this story, he asked the king:"O King, which of these two deserves more credit for plunging into the sea?" |
| 52309 | When the king saw this, he took it and asked the treasurer:"Where have you been keeping the fruits which the monk brought? |
| 52309 | Whence do you come? |
| 52309 | Where can I find such a sacrifice for the giant? |
| 52309 | Where did you go? |
| 52309 | Where has the great being been carried by my enemy? |
| 52309 | Where is that heavenly garden? |
| 52309 | Where is the great man? |
| 52309 | Where shall I go now, naked and dusty as I am? |
| 52309 | Where shall I see you again? |
| 52309 | Which are worse, men or women?_ 25 4. |
| 52309 | Which are worse, men or women?_ Then the king went back to the sissoo tree to fetch the goblin. |
| 52309 | Which combination of head and body is her husband?_ 57 7. |
| 52309 | Which is the cleverest?_ 75 9. |
| 52309 | Which is the more deserving?_ 63 8. |
| 52309 | Which is the more deserving?_ Then the king went back to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder as before, and started. |
| 52309 | Which is the more self- sacrificing?_ 135 16. |
| 52309 | Which is the more self- sacrificing?_ So the king walked along with the goblin. |
| 52309 | Which is the more worthy?_ 157 17. |
| 52309 | Which is the more worthy?_ Then the king went back under the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder as before, and started. |
| 52309 | Which is the most delicate?_ 87 11. |
| 52309 | Which is the most delicate?_ Then the king went to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder once more, and started toward the monk. |
| 52309 | Which is to blame when he kills them all?_ 197 21. |
| 52309 | Which of the five deserves the most honour?_ 37 5. |
| 52309 | Which of the five deserves the most honour?_ Then King Triple- victory went back under the sissoo tree and caught the goblin, who gave a horse- laugh. |
| 52309 | Which of these are you? |
| 52309 | Which of these are you? |
| 52309 | Which was the more self- sacrificing, Cloud- chariot or Shell- crest? |
| 52309 | Which was the most foolish?_ 187 20. |
| 52309 | Which was the most foolish?_ Then the king went back under the sissoo tree, took the goblin on his shoulder, and set out in haste. |
| 52309 | Who can she be?" |
| 52309 | Who could expect a good result from creating a bad- tempered creature? |
| 52309 | Who is to blame for his death?_ 109 13. |
| 52309 | Who is to blame for his death?_ Then the king went back under the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder, and started as before. |
| 52309 | Who killed the Brahman? |
| 52309 | Who will save my son?" |
| 52309 | Who would break a promise that had been made solemnly? |
| 52309 | Who would sacrifice his child for money? |
| 52309 | Who would save a common stone at the cost of a pearl? |
| 52309 | Whose fault was the resulting death of his parents- in- law?_ 5 2. |
| 52309 | Whose fault was the resulting death of his parents- in- law?_ There is a city called Benares where Shiva lives. |
| 52309 | Whose wife is she? |
| 52309 | Whose wife should she be? |
| 52309 | Whose wife should she be?_ 19 3. |
| 52309 | Whose wife should she be?_ Then King Triple- victory went back under the sissoo tree to fetch the goblin. |
| 52309 | Why did he fail to win the magic spell?_ 163 18. |
| 52309 | Why did he laugh at the moment of death?_ 173 19. |
| 52309 | Why did he laugh at the moment of death?_ Then the king went to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder as before, and started in silence. |
| 52309 | Why did he weep and dance?_ 203 22. |
| 52309 | Why did his counsellor''s heart break?_ 91 12. |
| 52309 | Why did his counsellor''s heart break?_ Then the king went as before to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder, and started back. |
| 52309 | Why did the Creator and the serpent- king choose my only son from the broad serpent- world, and seize upon him?" |
| 52309 | Why did they lose their magic, when everything had been done according to precept?" |
| 52309 | Why did you not save me?" |
| 52309 | Why do we keep such a wishing- tree for the sake of transient blessings? |
| 52309 | Why do you not seize her?" |
| 52309 | Why do you say that King Shudraka was the best among them?" |
| 52309 | Why do you urge me to a sin which is pleasant for the moment, but causes great sorrow in the next world? |
| 52309 | Why do you vainly try to comfort me?" |
| 52309 | Why do you work so hard and grow weary for the sake of that monk? |
| 52309 | Why does that magic goblin keep wasting my time? |
| 52309 | Why does the fruit of the poison- tree of sin taste sweet?" |
| 52309 | Why have you come into this lonely wood? |
| 52309 | Why have you killed my husband and my brother at one fell swoop? |
| 52309 | Why insist on more? |
| 52309 | Why not trust a loving, innocent girl like me? |
| 52309 | Why not?" |
| 52309 | Why seek the pains of hell by suicide?'' |
| 52309 | Why should I deceive an honourable man, especially as your noble character has made me feel like a servant? |
| 52309 | Why should I not please the goddess by sacrificing myself?" |
| 52309 | Why should I not win her favour by sacrificing myself?" |
| 52309 | Why spend your time in such an evil pursuit?" |
| 52309 | Why then delay? |
| 52309 | Why then do you uselessly kill the wild beasts? |
| 52309 | Why torture me yet more? |
| 52309 | [ Illustration:"Shall I go into the fire or go home?"] |
| 52309 | the snake, or the hawk, or the woman who gave him the food, or her husband? |
| 2290 | Is this a fancy of mine? 2290 Where did you get these?" |
| 2290 | Where would you go? 2290 Why should you make way with yourself? |
| 2290 | A star- gazer and a chariot- maker work for other people, do they not?" |
| 2290 | And Calamity seemed to be looking on, thinking:"Whom shall I embrace?" |
| 2290 | And Cloud- banner said:"My son, I only want the kingdom for you, and if you give it up from benevolent motives, what good is it to me? |
| 2290 | And Hero was amazed, and timidly asked her:"Who are you, and why do you weep?" |
| 2290 | And King Shudraka saw all this and went back without being seen himself, and climbed to the roof, and called:"Who is there at the gate?" |
| 2290 | And again the king thought to test his behaviour, and climbing to the roof he called out toward the palace gate:"Who is there?" |
| 2290 | And as he walked along, the goblin on his shoulder said to him again:"O King, why do you take such pains for that wretched monk? |
| 2290 | And as soon as the counsellor was refreshed, the king said:"Counsellor, why did you leave us? |
| 2290 | And as to his knowledge of the speech of beasts and birds, of what practical use is it? |
| 2290 | And he also thought: Why does this girl reject kings and fall in love with a thief like me? |
| 2290 | And he asked her:"What does it mean, dearest? |
| 2290 | And he ran between them and spoke again to the agitated bird:"O Garuda, what madness is this? |
| 2290 | And he thought:"If I am born a prince, why am I so poor? |
| 2290 | And he thought:"Who is this who laments so piteously, as if in deep despair? |
| 2290 | And he wondered:"Oh, where has my wife gone? |
| 2290 | And her mother and father were surprised and asked her:"Why did you come back so soon, and in this condition?" |
| 2290 | And how can you blame either or both of the charitable people who gave food to a guest who arrived unexpectedly? |
| 2290 | And if I am to be poor, why did God give me so many desires? |
| 2290 | And if this is a usual occurrence at sea, why do not other goddesses arise?" |
| 2290 | And she thought:"Who can he be in this forest? |
| 2290 | And the concealed thief saw it all and thought:"What has the wicked woman done? |
| 2290 | And the counsellor''s son said to the old woman:"Old woman, do you know anybody named Bite in this city?" |
| 2290 | And the goblin on his shoulder saw that he was silent and said:"O King, why are you so obstinate? |
| 2290 | And the goblin said reproachfully:"O King, why was not the general better? |
| 2290 | And the goblin spoke to him again:"O King, why do you go to such pains in this cemetery at night? |
| 2290 | And the hermit said:"My boy, what is this wailing we hear? |
| 2290 | And the king fell in love with her and thought:"Who is she? |
| 2290 | And the king respectfully asked her:"My good girl, what happy family does your friend adorn? |
| 2290 | And the king said:"What can I say? |
| 2290 | And the king said:"Why are you so sad, my dear? |
| 2290 | And the king thought:"Ah, what does this mean? |
| 2290 | And the loud shouts of angry gamblers seemed to suggest the question:"Who is there that would not be fleeced here, were he the god of wealth himself?" |
| 2290 | And the prince mounted his father''s judgment throne, and when he had heard the cause of the quarrel, he asked the thrush:"How are men ungrateful? |
| 2290 | And the princess trusted him and said after a little hesitation:"My dear girl, why should I not trust you? |
| 2290 | And the spell appeared in bodily form, and said:"What shall I do?" |
| 2290 | And then she spoke to Sandal with words punctuated by smiles:"My dear, why do you not show hospitality to the fairy prince? |
| 2290 | And what child would give his body?" |
| 2290 | And what did you fall into?" |
| 2290 | And what good is a Brahman who neglects his own affairs and turns magician, despising real courage? |
| 2290 | And what good is there except helping others? |
| 2290 | And what is this hermit garb? |
| 2290 | And when he saw that he had come there so suddenly, he thought:"Oh, what does it mean? |
| 2290 | And when he saw that the culprit was dressed like a hermit, he asked him very gently:"Holy sir, where did you get this pearl necklace? |
| 2290 | And when the king saw him following, he spoke lovingly:"My good man, do you perhaps know the way we came?" |
| 2290 | And when the monk came the next day, he asked him:"Monk, why do you keep honouring me in such an expensive way? |
| 2290 | And where are they now? |
| 2290 | And where are you going?" |
| 2290 | And where did you come? |
| 2290 | And where did you stay? |
| 2290 | And why should feet fit to saunter in a court, press this thorny ground? |
| 2290 | Are men bad, or women? |
| 2290 | Are the crows to blame when the geese eat up the rice?" |
| 2290 | Are you not aware that I am a connoisseur in food? |
| 2290 | At that moment a serving- maid came into the room and said to the king:"Your Majesty, why have you come into the jaws of death? |
| 2290 | Besides, what nonsense are you talking?" |
| 2290 | Besides, you have surely heard what the poet says: What fool would go into a house? |
| 2290 | But Cloud- chariot said to his father:"Father, how can you take your weapons and fight? |
| 2290 | But Fierce- lion said:"My son, what do you mean? |
| 2290 | But after all, who can understand the strange workings of stern necessity? |
| 2290 | But her father said:"What do you mean, my daughter? |
| 2290 | But his parents immediately said:"Son, what are you saying? |
| 2290 | But presently she rose, lamenting for the pair so unexpectantly dead, and thought:"What is my life good for now?" |
| 2290 | But the goblin said:"How could it be the king''s fault? |
| 2290 | But the goblin said:"Why not Hero, the like of whom as a servant is not to be found in the whole world? |
| 2290 | But when the eldest said this, the two younger said:"Sir, if you feel disgust, why should n''t we?" |
| 2290 | But while he reflected, Cloud- chariot said:"O king of birds, why do you stop? |
| 2290 | Can women be so dreadful as this? |
| 2290 | Did he weep or laugh? |
| 2290 | Did he weep or laugh?_ Then the king went back to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder, and started. |
| 2290 | Did you understand the signs I made, or was it the counsellor''s son?" |
| 2290 | Do you not know that money is uncertain as an autumn cloud? |
| 2290 | Do you not know this, you who know things above and things below? |
| 2290 | Do you not see how gentle his appearance is?" |
| 2290 | Do you not see that I have the hood and the forked tongue? |
| 2290 | Do you not see the home of the ghosts, full of dreadful creatures, terrible in the night, wrapped in darkness as in smoke? |
| 2290 | Do you not see the rock of sacrifice wet with the blood of serpents, the terrible plaything of Death? |
| 2290 | Have you no sense about this fruitless task? |
| 2290 | Have you the rheumatism? |
| 2290 | He thought:"Is she the goddess of love, plucking the spring flowers in person? |
| 2290 | He went himself to see Good, and asked him soothingly:"What does this mean? |
| 2290 | How about generosity and that kind of thing? |
| 2290 | How can I comfort it? |
| 2290 | How can I do such a wicked thing? |
| 2290 | How can I find her? |
| 2290 | How can I partake of such a meal?" |
| 2290 | How can I save him from the king? |
| 2290 | How can I touch this loathsome thing?" |
| 2290 | How can a good counsellor be happy when his master devotes himself to a vice? |
| 2290 | How can he live then? |
| 2290 | How can it bear the pangs of being eaten by Garuda? |
| 2290 | How could I be mad enough to eat a future Buddha? |
| 2290 | How could a man in my position overlook such a transgression? |
| 2290 | How could a teacher with such powers promise falsely? |
| 2290 | How could a warrior''s daughter be given to a working- man, a weaver? |
| 2290 | How could he be so mean as to beg Garuda to destroy his own race? |
| 2290 | How could this woman have a goaty smell?" |
| 2290 | How could you bring yourself to do so harsh and loveless a thing? |
| 2290 | How could you do this thoughtless thing?" |
| 2290 | How did you come to this inaccessible under- world? |
| 2290 | How much less in the case of others? |
| 2290 | How shall I find another such master? |
| 2290 | How shall I live without you?" |
| 2290 | If I should transgress, who would be virtuous? |
| 2290 | If not, why do you talk nonsense? |
| 2290 | If the counsellor is lost, the fundamental principle is lost; how then can virtue be preserved? |
| 2290 | If you know and do not tell, then remember the curse I spoke of before?" |
| 2290 | Is it good manners to enter the heart of an innocent girl by force, steal her thoughts, and run away? |
| 2290 | Is n''t it possible to prepare for heaven in your own house?" |
| 2290 | Is she a goddess come to bathe in these waters? |
| 2290 | Is she angry with me? |
| 2290 | Is there no other kind of virtue except in pilgrimages? |
| 2290 | Is this a dream, or an illusion?" |
| 2290 | Is this hermit manners, to run away?" |
| 2290 | Just then the thief came up and said to the king''s men:"Why do you kill this man without any good reason? |
| 2290 | Or Gauri, separated from her husband Shiva, leading a hard life to win him again? |
| 2290 | Or a dream? |
| 2290 | Or an illusion? |
| 2290 | Or are you possessed by a devil? |
| 2290 | Or from sorrow because the king came back, and he could no longer act as king? |
| 2290 | Or how can Garuda, the heavenly bird, do such a crime? |
| 2290 | Or is she a forest goddess, come here to worship the spring- time?" |
| 2290 | Or is she playing hide- and- seek with me, to see how I will take it?" |
| 2290 | Or the favour of the goddess?" |
| 2290 | Or the lovely moon, taking a human form, and trying to be attractive in the daytime? |
| 2290 | Or to a farmer, either? |
| 2290 | Or why at her age does she torture a body as delicate as a flower with a hermit''s life in a lonely wood?" |
| 2290 | Or why is not the boy Trusty the most worthy, who showed such wonderful manhood when only a little boy? |
| 2290 | Or why should not his wife receive the most praise, who did not waver when she saw her son killed like a beast before her eyes? |
| 2290 | Otherwise, why did the fire seem cool to you? |
| 2290 | Shall I go into the fire, or go home? |
| 2290 | So Spotless went and saw how his son was acting, and said:"My son, why should you be downcast? |
| 2290 | So at night he climbed to the palace roof and cried:"Who is there at the gate?" |
| 2290 | So how can I touch it?" |
| 2290 | So now I say: What good is life to me without my children? |
| 2290 | So now why should I want to live alone? |
| 2290 | So the eldest brother straightway plucked up heart, and said:"What virtue is it which we should acquire?" |
| 2290 | So the king knew that a goblin lived in it, and said without fear:"What are you laughing about? |
| 2290 | So what shall I do now?" |
| 2290 | The brave man said:"If I had not killed the giant in the fight, who would have saved her in spite of all your pains? |
| 2290 | The wise man said:"If I had not discovered her by my wisdom, how could you have found her hiding- place? |
| 2290 | Then Cloud- chariot asked one of her friends:"My good girl, what is your friend''s sweet name? |
| 2290 | Then a voice cried from heaven:"O Hero, who else is devoted to his master as you are? |
| 2290 | Then she slowly spoke:"Who are you, sir? |
| 2290 | Then the chief of police went and asked him:"Holy sir, how did this pearl necklace come into your pupil''s hand?" |
| 2290 | Then the counsellor''s son said:"Did you not see all that she hinted with her signs? |
| 2290 | Then the eldest said:"What? |
| 2290 | Then the king broke silence and said:"Who did the murder? |
| 2290 | Then the younger brothers said to him:"Sir, why is an intelligent man sad for lack of money? |
| 2290 | There he saw great heaps of bones, and he asked Friend- wealth:"What creatures did these heaps of bones belong to?" |
| 2290 | Therefore, as you are a wise man, tell us what you mean by embracing this dead body?" |
| 2290 | To which should the girl be given? |
| 2290 | To which should the girl be given? |
| 2290 | To which should the girl be given?_ Then the king went back to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder, and started. |
| 2290 | Was his wife his or the other man''s? |
| 2290 | Was it from grief because he did not win the fairy himself? |
| 2290 | Was not Rama forced to abandon his good wife by popular clamour? |
| 2290 | Was the night jealous of your beauty; did she carry you away? |
| 2290 | What advantage would it be to you if all the serpents were slain at once?" |
| 2290 | What are the syllables of her name, which must be a delight to the ear? |
| 2290 | What could she do, poor woman? |
| 2290 | What do you mean by your hour for begging? |
| 2290 | What does the question mean? |
| 2290 | What family does she adorn?" |
| 2290 | What fool would begin a thing and then stop?" |
| 2290 | What good would life be to us otherwise?" |
| 2290 | What happiness is there in a life of constant mourning for your children? |
| 2290 | What high- minded man would want a kingdom after killing his relatives just for the sake of this wretched, perishable body? |
| 2290 | What is it to them, or they to it? |
| 2290 | What is the use of throwing him into a well now? |
| 2290 | What madness is this? |
| 2290 | What might she not do next?" |
| 2290 | What need of more words? |
| 2290 | What relation were their children? |
| 2290 | What rights have you in my wife? |
| 2290 | What shall I do?" |
| 2290 | What will happen now, when he loves a fairy? |
| 2290 | What will holy men not do out of regard to those who seek aid? |
| 2290 | What would my father say if he saw me now, or any relative, or any friend? |
| 2290 | When Hero heard this, he was frightened and said:"Goddess, is there any remedy for this, any way in which the king might be saved?" |
| 2290 | When Lotus- lake saw that terrible fall, he cried:"Oh, what does it mean?" |
| 2290 | When he had told this story, the goblin asked:"O King, which of them was the most delicate?" |
| 2290 | When he had told this story, the goblin said:"O King, when the king was so happy, why should the counsellor''s heart break? |
| 2290 | When he had told this story, the goblin said:"O King, who murdered the Brahman? |
| 2290 | When so good a wife is gone, how could I think of another?" |
| 2290 | When the counsellor was rested, the merchant asked him:"Who are you? |
| 2290 | When the goblin had told this story on the road in the night, he said:"O King, which was the most foolish among those who died for love? |
| 2290 | When the goblin had told this story, he asked King Triple- victory:"O King, which of all these was the most worthy? |
| 2290 | When the goblin had told this story, he asked the king:"O King, when they were mingled in this way, which should be her husband? |
| 2290 | When the goblin had told this story, he asked the king:"O King, which of these two deserves more credit for plunging into the sea?" |
| 2290 | When the goblin had told this strange story, he asked the king:"O King, why did the boy laugh at the moment of death? |
| 2290 | When the king saw this, he took it and asked the treasurer:"Where have you been keeping the fruits which the monk brought? |
| 2290 | Whence do you come? |
| 2290 | Where can I find such a sacrifice for the giant? |
| 2290 | Where did you go? |
| 2290 | Where has the great being been carried by my enemy? |
| 2290 | Where is that heavenly garden? |
| 2290 | Where is the great man? |
| 2290 | Where shall I go now, naked and dusty as I am? |
| 2290 | Where shall I see you again? |
| 2290 | Which are worse, men or women? |
| 2290 | Which are worse, men or women?_ Then the king went back to the sissoo tree to fetch the goblin. |
| 2290 | Which combination of head and body is her husband? |
| 2290 | Which is the cleverest? |
| 2290 | Which is the more deserving? |
| 2290 | Which is the more deserving?_ Then the king went back to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder as before, and started. |
| 2290 | Which is the more self- sacrificing? |
| 2290 | Which is the more self- sacrificing?_ So the king walked along with the goblin. |
| 2290 | Which is the more worthy? |
| 2290 | Which is the more worthy?_ Then the king went back under the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder as before, and started. |
| 2290 | Which is the most delicate? |
| 2290 | Which is the most delicate?_ Then the king went to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder once more, and started toward the monk. |
| 2290 | Which is to blame when he kills them all? |
| 2290 | Which of the five deserves the most honour? |
| 2290 | Which of the five deserves the most honour?_ Then King Triple- victory went back under the sissoo tree and caught the goblin, who gave a horse- laugh. |
| 2290 | Which of these are you? |
| 2290 | Which of these are you? |
| 2290 | Which was the more self- sacrificing, Cloud- chariot or Shell- crest? |
| 2290 | Which was the most foolish? |
| 2290 | Which was the most foolish?_ Then the king went back under the sissoo tree, took the goblin on his shoulder, and set out in haste. |
| 2290 | Who can she be?" |
| 2290 | Who could expect a good result from creating a bad- tempered creature? |
| 2290 | Who is to blame for his death? |
| 2290 | Who is to blame for his death?_ Then the King went back under the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder, and started as before. |
| 2290 | Who killed the Brahman? |
| 2290 | Who will save my son?" |
| 2290 | Who would break a promise that had been made solemnly? |
| 2290 | Who would sacrifice his child for money? |
| 2290 | Who would save a common stone at the cost of a pearl? |
| 2290 | Whose fault was the resulting death of his parents- in- law? |
| 2290 | Whose fault was the resulting death of his parents- in- law?_ There is a city called Benares where Shiva lives. |
| 2290 | Whose wife is she? |
| 2290 | Whose wife should she be? |
| 2290 | Whose wife should she be? |
| 2290 | Whose wife should she be?_ Then King Triple- victory went back under the sissoo tree to fetch the goblin. |
| 2290 | Why did he fail to win the magic spell? |
| 2290 | Why did he laugh at the moment of death? |
| 2290 | Why did he laugh at the moment of death?_ Then the king went to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder as before, and started in silence. |
| 2290 | Why did he weep and dance? |
| 2290 | Why did his counsellor''s heart break? |
| 2290 | Why did his counsellor''s heart break?_ Then the king went as before to the sissoo tree, put the goblin on his shoulder, and started back. |
| 2290 | Why did the Creator and the serpent- king choose my only son from the broad serpent- world, and seize upon him?" |
| 2290 | Why did they lose their magic, when everything had been done according to precept?" |
| 2290 | Why did you not save me?" |
| 2290 | Why do we keep such a wishing- tree for the sake of transient blessings? |
| 2290 | Why do you not seize her?" |
| 2290 | Why do you say that King Shudraka was the best among them?" |
| 2290 | Why do you urge me to a sin which is pleasant for the moment, but causes great sorrow in the next world? |
| 2290 | Why do you vainly try to comfort me?" |
| 2290 | Why do you work so hard and grow weary for the sake of that monk? |
| 2290 | Why does that magic goblin keep wasting my time? |
| 2290 | Why does the fruit of the poison- tree of sin taste sweet?" |
| 2290 | Why have you come into this lonely wood? |
| 2290 | Why have you killed my husband and my brother at one fell swoop? |
| 2290 | Why insist on more? |
| 2290 | Why not trust a loving, innocent girl like me? |
| 2290 | Why not?" |
| 2290 | Why seek the pains of hell by suicide?'' |
| 2290 | Why should I deceive an honourable man, especially as your noble character has made me feel like a servant? |
| 2290 | Why should I not please the goddess by sacrificing myself?" |
| 2290 | Why should I not win her favour by sacrificing myself?" |
| 2290 | Why spend your time in such an evil pursuit?" |
| 2290 | Why then delay? |
| 2290 | Why then do you uselessly kill the wild beasts? |
| 2290 | Why torture me yet more? |
| 2290 | the snake, or the hawk, or the woman who gave him the food, or her husband? |
| 41128 | Foolish girl,replied Kadambari, with a smile,"how should my adamantine heart break if it has not broken at this sight? |
| 41128 | Surely,I reflected,"Kama himself teaches this play of the eye, though generally after a long happy love, else whence comes this ascetic''s gaze? |
| 41128 | What more,said she,"can this unhappy man tell me? |
| 41128 | ''"''"How can he have forms?" |
| 41128 | ''"''Impelled by these thoughts I advanced, and bowing to the second young ascetic, his companion, I asked:"What is the name of his Reverence? |
| 41128 | ''"''Or what could there be harder to tell than this very thing, which is supposed to be impossible to hear or say? |
| 41128 | ''"''To these words he replied, with some shame:"Dear Kapiñjala, why dost thou thus misunderstand me? |
| 41128 | ''"''With a slight smile, he replied:"Maiden, what needs this question? |
| 41128 | ''"What shall I say?" |
| 41128 | ''Am I dear to thee?'' |
| 41128 | ''But the hermits, looking on me, asked him as he rested:"Whence was this little parrot brought?" |
| 41128 | ''How could she be here, my beloved?'' |
| 41128 | ''How has my lord reached this place? |
| 41128 | ''Sire,''replied he,''what have I not eaten? |
| 41128 | ''Where a man hath known his greatest happiness, there is his home, even if it be the forest.1( 642) And where else have I known such joy as here? |
| 41128 | ''Why,''thought he,''did not the Creator make all my senses into sight, or what noble deed has my eye done that it may look on her unchecked? |
| 41128 | ( 111) Why should I say more? |
| 41128 | ( 128) And how in thy presence could any of thy followers, or anyone else, offend? |
| 41128 | ( 235) What fortresses untaken, for thee to take? |
| 41128 | ( 291) When he had thus spoken, Pundarika said to me with a slight smile:"Ah, curious maiden, why didst thou take the trouble to ask this? |
| 41128 | ( 294)''"''And entering the maidens''dwelling, I began straightway to ask myself in my grief at his loss:"Am I really back, or still there? |
| 41128 | ( 307) I will only ask this question: Is this course you have begun taught by your gurus, or read in the holy books? |
| 41128 | ( 308) Who, forsooth, is this Love- god? |
| 41128 | ( 323) Cruel demon Love, evil and pitiless, what shameful deed hast thou brought to pass? |
| 41128 | ( 328) Fearest thou not the reproach of men in that thou goest, deserting me, thy handmaid, without cause? |
| 41128 | ( 337) Why should one so noble as thou deign to look on or speak with me, the doer of that monstrous crime, the slaughter of a Brahman?'' |
| 41128 | ( 349)''"When she had finished her prayers, Mahaçveta asked Taralika,''Didst thou see my dear Kadambari well? |
| 41128 | ( 350) How should I fulfil the desire of Love, poisonous, pitiless, unkind, who has brought my dear friend to so sad a plight? |
| 41128 | ( 38) But what need of further words? |
| 41128 | ( 430) And are all her retinue well, with Tamalika and Keyuraka?'' |
| 41128 | ( 478) Else where was my approach to the land of the immortals, in my vain hunt for the Kinnaras? |
| 41128 | ( 479) Then in the evening he asked Keyuraka,"What thinkest thou? |
| 41128 | ( 480) Or shall I again behold her face, with its eyes like a timid fawn''s?" |
| 41128 | ( 508)''Do I not know well''said he,''all that you urge for my departure? |
| 41128 | ( 567) For him I neglected all other ties; and now, when he is dead, how canst thou ask me to live? |
| 41128 | ( 592) Have ye seen him?" |
| 41128 | ( 94) But what need of more? |
| 41128 | Ah, wicked, evil, wanton Mahaçveta, how had he harmed thee? |
| 41128 | Alas, to what refuge shall I flee? |
| 41128 | Am I alone, or with my maidens? |
| 41128 | Am I awake or asleep? |
| 41128 | Am I silent, or beginning to speak? |
| 41128 | And if this be so, what must I do, and what must I say in his presence?" |
| 41128 | And is the world of mortals pleasant?'' |
| 41128 | And so, when I asked her,"Princess, what means this?" |
| 41128 | And was there any talk about me?'' |
| 41128 | And what has Indra gained by his lordship of the three worlds if he did not mount this back, broad as Mount Meru? |
| 41128 | And what union could there be between the dead and the living? |
| 41128 | And when the king had said this, Kumarapalita, with a slight smile, replied:''Where is the wonder? |
| 41128 | And whence in the world of men could there arise such harmonies of heavenly minstrelsy? |
| 41128 | And whereby hath thy body, though formed of the five gross elements, put on this pure whiteness? |
| 41128 | And wherefore in thy fresh youth, tender as a flower, has this vow been taken? |
| 41128 | And whither goes she?'' |
| 41128 | And why are thy jewelled anklets, with their murmur like teals on the lake of love, not graced with the touch of thy lotus- feet? |
| 41128 | And why dost thou, erst so gay, wear in vain a face whose adornment is washed away with flowing tears? |
| 41128 | And why is there no device painted on thy breast like the deer on the moon? |
| 41128 | And why is this hand, with its petal- like cluster of soft fingers, exalted into an ear- jewel, as though it were a rosy lotus? |
| 41128 | And why is this waist of thine bereft of the music of the girdle thou hast laid aside? |
| 41128 | And why, too, is she brought to suspense by these too flattering speeches?'' |
| 41128 | Angrily the maina began:''Princess Kadambari, why dost thou not restrain this wretched, ill- mannered, conceited bird from following me? |
| 41128 | Are these things pleasures or pains?" |
| 41128 | At my words Kapiñjala replied:"Princess, what can I say? |
| 41128 | At these words, in a voice choked by wrath, I exclaimed:''Wretch, how has a thunderbolt failed to strike thy head in the utterance of these thy words? |
| 41128 | Bewildered what to do, I cried to Taralika:"Knowest thou not? |
| 41128 | Bid her enter?'' |
| 41128 | Bright in strength, why so confused? |
| 41128 | Bright with youth, why rest thy weight against us? |
| 41128 | But again I thought,''What avails dwelling on this useless thought? |
| 41128 | But how could a woman, tender of nature as a young çirisha- blossom, show such boldness, especially one so young as I? |
| 41128 | But is it fitting in the Princess not to restrain her giddy slave? |
| 41128 | But thou who hast done all rightly, what duty of love hast thou left undone, that thou weepest? |
| 41128 | But weeping women replied:"Why ask? |
| 41128 | But what can I do towards Brahma, from whom there is no appeal? |
| 41128 | By my life I swear to thee I am put to shame by even my own heart''s knowledge of my story; how much more by another''s? |
| 41128 | By what discourtesy has he vexed that lotus- soft heart of thine, that none should vex? |
| 41128 | By whom have the raised hands of salutation, soft as young lotuses, not been placed on the head? |
| 41128 | By whose brows, encircled with golden bands, have the floors of his halls not been polished? |
| 41128 | Can it be ascertained as presented by his beauty, or by my own mind, or by love, or by youth or affection, or by any other causes? |
| 41128 | Citraratha, however, said:''Why, when we have palaces of our own, do we feast in the forest? |
| 41128 | Courteously raising my hands, I reverently replied:( 297)''Wherefore say this? |
| 41128 | Devoid of self- control, why run before thine elders? |
| 41128 | Divided between joy and grief, she paid homage to his feet, and replied:"Blessed Kapiñjala, am I so devoid of virtue that I could forget thee? |
| 41128 | Do I weep or hold back my tears? |
| 41128 | Does a fire not burn when fed on sandal- wood? |
| 41128 | Envious girl, why block up the window? |
| 41128 | Filled with amazement, Candrapida replied:''What means this, Madalekha? |
| 41128 | For Modesty censured her:''Light one, what hast thou begun?'' |
| 41128 | For by thy present grief, what is effected or what won? |
| 41128 | For how else could such a storehouse of learning become straightway unavailing? |
| 41128 | For in a heart worn by a friend''s sorrow, what hope is there of joy, what contentment, what pleasures or what mirth? |
| 41128 | For to one so adamantine as to have seen love in all his power, and yet to have lived through this, what can mere speaking of it matter? |
| 41128 | For what has this bright home of glory and penance to do with the stirrings of love that meaner men welcome? |
| 41128 | For what is hard for the pitiless? |
| 41128 | For what is thy hope of happiness in such things as are honoured by the base, but blamed by the good? |
| 41128 | For what will not hope achieve? |
| 41128 | For when was the moon ever beheld by any without moonlight, or a lotus- pool without a lotus, or a garden without creeper? |
| 41128 | For where is thy age? |
| 41128 | For who will ever, even in a dream, behold again this place haunted by the gods?'' |
| 41128 | For why speak of beings endowed with sense when, if it so please him, he can bring together even things without sense? |
| 41128 | For why? |
| 41128 | Friend, where is thine old love to me? |
| 41128 | From what tree is this garland woven? |
| 41128 | Has any wrong been done by me, or by any in thy service? |
| 41128 | Has anything been said that could hurt him by my father or Çukanasa?" |
| 41128 | He, however, started up hastily without replying, and with the cry,"Monster, whither goest thou with my friend?" |
| 41128 | How came thine attainment of the Vedas, and thine acquaintance with the Çastras, and thy skill in the fine arts? |
| 41128 | How can I cover this error? |
| 41128 | How canst thou now suddenly leave me, and go thy way like a stranger on whom my eyes had never rested? |
| 41128 | How didst thou endure the tedious restraint of thy gurus? |
| 41128 | How do I even breathe but by strong effort? |
| 41128 | How far did he follow us?" |
| 41128 | How far off is he?'' |
| 41128 | How is he named? |
| 41128 | How long didst thou see him? |
| 41128 | How long wert thou there? |
| 41128 | How many days wert thou there? |
| 41128 | How old art thou, and how came this bondage of a cage, and the falling into the hands of a Candala maiden, and thy coming hither?'' |
| 41128 | How otherwise could there be such grace in one who lives in weary penance, beauty''s destroyer?" |
| 41128 | How should he be here?" |
| 41128 | How should so great a happiness fall to our lot? |
| 41128 | How were you and the retinue employed? |
| 41128 | How wert thou not ashamed to send so cruel a message? |
| 41128 | I knew not what to do, and asked Taralika,"Seest thou not, Taralika, how confused is my mind? |
| 41128 | If caught, what is the good? |
| 41128 | If from a search for reason, how many things rest only on tradition, and are yet seen to be true? |
| 41128 | Ill- behaved girl, why thus weary thyself? |
| 41128 | In what occupation has the Gandharva princess spent the time? |
| 41128 | Insatiable, how long wilt thou look? |
| 41128 | Is not the submarine fire the fiercer in the water that is wo nt to quench fire? |
| 41128 | Is the race honoured by thy birth, lady, that of the Maruts, or Rishis, or Gandharvas, or Guhyakas, or Apsarases? |
| 41128 | Is this fitting for thee even to imagine, much less to see or tell? |
| 41128 | Is this joy or sorrow, longing or despair, misfortune or gladness, day or night? |
| 41128 | Is this the fruit of our meeting, that my heart, tender as a lotus filament, is now crushed? |
| 41128 | Is this, I pray, the conduct of noble men? |
| 41128 | It may be asked What is the value of''Kadambari''for European readers? |
| 41128 | Madalekha therefore replied:''Prince, what shall I say? |
| 41128 | Moreover, in one of so delicate a nature what does not tend to pain? |
| 41128 | Moreover, what is he laughing at as he talks to Vaiçampayana, so that the circle of space is whitened with his bright teeth? |
| 41128 | Nay, more, thou hast conquered our hearts; what is left for us to give thee? |
| 41128 | Night, showest thou no mercy? |
| 41128 | Now, all auspicious omens which come to us foretell the near approach of joy; and what other cause of joy can there be than this? |
| 41128 | Of what ascetic is he the son? |
| 41128 | Or by what skill, or device, or means, or support, or thought, or solace, may he yet live?'' |
| 41128 | Or dost thou dwell in disguise, wearing the form only of a bird, and where didst thou formerly dwell? |
| 41128 | Say, whither, without thee, shall I go? |
| 41128 | Seest thou not the pain produced in her mind by the breezes of the fans? |
| 41128 | Self- respect reproached her:''Gandharva Princess, how is this fitting for thee?'' |
| 41128 | Simplicity mocked her:''Where has thy childhood gone before its day was over?'' |
| 41128 | So saying, she ceased; and, with a long and passionate sigh, the king spoke thus:''"''My queen, what can be done in a matter decreed by fate? |
| 41128 | Steadfastness cried shame on her:''Whence comes thine unsteadiness of nature?'' |
| 41128 | Tell us from the very beginning the whole history of thy birth-- in what country, and how wert thou born, and by whom was thy name given? |
| 41128 | Tell us, therefore, what he has done, who was he, and who will he be in another birth?" |
| 41128 | The king, whose curiosity was aroused, looked at the chiefs around him, and with the words''Why not? |
| 41128 | The likeness of spirit between these two leads to the question, Had Bana, like Spenser, any purpose, ethical or political, underlying his story? |
| 41128 | Then I rebuked that string of pearls, saying:"Ah, wicked one, couldst not even thou have preserved his life till my coming?" |
| 41128 | Then her betel- nut bearer, Makarika, who was always near her, said to the king:''My lord, how could any fault, however slight, be committed by thee? |
| 41128 | Then she tenderly touched Kadambari, saying"Be comforted, my mother,[ 350] for without thee, who could have preserved the body of my son Candrapida? |
| 41128 | Then the latter at last spoke falteringly:"What can one so wretched tell thee? |
| 41128 | Thou art lord of our life; what can we offer thee? |
| 41128 | Thou art one with my own heart, and I ask thee to tell me what I should now do? |
| 41128 | Thou by thy sight hast made our life worth having; how can we reward thy coming? |
| 41128 | Thou hast already bestowed the great favour of thy presence; what return could we make? |
| 41128 | Thou who feignest coyness, what mean thy crafty glances? |
| 41128 | Thou whose eyes art filled with love, seest thou not thy friends? |
| 41128 | Thou, erst so soft of speech, from whom hast thou learnt to speak unkindness and utter reproach? |
| 41128 | Thus speaking, he retired, and the king asked Vaiçampayana:''Hast thou in the interval eaten food sufficient and to thy taste?'' |
| 41128 | To this speech I replied:"Mad girl, what is love to me? |
| 41128 | To whom but thee should I listen? |
| 41128 | To whom can I tell this folly of my undisciplined senses,( 378) and where shall I go, consumed by Kama, the five- arrowed god? |
| 41128 | To whom else can I complain, or tell my humiliation, or give a share in my woe? |
| 41128 | Was it a special boon given thee? |
| 41128 | What ails me that I can not restrain myself? |
| 41128 | What bright deed of merit was done by Earth that she has won thee as lord? |
| 41128 | What can I do? |
| 41128 | What can she do now? |
| 41128 | What caused thy remembrance of a former birth? |
| 41128 | What continents unappropriated, for thee to appropriate? |
| 41128 | What did he say to thee? |
| 41128 | What did he say, and what didst thou reply? |
| 41128 | What does the moon want with Pundarika? |
| 41128 | What else can be done? |
| 41128 | What favour did the princess show thee? |
| 41128 | What has fate begun? |
| 41128 | What has happened? |
| 41128 | What is Ujjayini like, and how far off is it? |
| 41128 | What is her name? |
| 41128 | What is the land of Bharata? |
| 41128 | What is this that has befallen me? |
| 41128 | What kings have not been humbled? |
| 41128 | What matters it whether I catch the pair of Kinnaras or not? |
| 41128 | What need of words? |
| 41128 | What offence has been committed? |
| 41128 | What other course is there? |
| 41128 | What refuge shall I seek? |
| 41128 | What regions unsubdued, for thee to subdue? |
| 41128 | What remedy is there? |
| 41128 | What talk was there, and what conversation arose? |
| 41128 | What talk was there? |
| 41128 | What to me were home, mother, father, kinsfolk, followers? |
| 41128 | What treasures ungained, for thee to gain? |
| 41128 | What was I to do? |
| 41128 | What were Mahaçveta and Madalekha doing? |
| 41128 | What will my father and mother and the Gandharvas say when they hear this tale? |
| 41128 | What, indeed, could I say? |
| 41128 | What, then, shall I do? |
| 41128 | Whence comes this exceeding skill that tells the heart''s longing wordlessly by a glance alone?" |
| 41128 | Whence comes this hitherto unknown assault of the senses, which so transforms thee? |
| 41128 | Whence comes this thy great hardness? |
| 41128 | Whence could one so hard- hearted feel grief? |
| 41128 | Whence have the parts of this exceeding beauty been gathered? |
| 41128 | Where is his former penance, and where his present state? |
| 41128 | Where is thine old firmness? |
| 41128 | Where that smiling welcome that never failed me?" |
| 41128 | Where thy calm of mind, thine inherited holiness, thy carelessness of earthly things? |
| 41128 | Where thy conquest of the senses? |
| 41128 | Where thy self- control? |
| 41128 | Wherefore hast thou not returned? |
| 41128 | Whither goest thou, pitilessly leaving me alone and protectorless? |
| 41128 | Who am I? |
| 41128 | Who but thee could give advice at this time, or could attempt to restrain my wandering? |
| 41128 | Who have not accepted his staff of office? |
| 41128 | Who have not drunk in with the crocodiles of their crests, the radiance of his feet, like pure streams? |
| 41128 | Who have not raised the cry of"Hail!"? |
| 41128 | Who have not waved his cowries? |
| 41128 | Who in his senses would, even if happy, make up his mind to undertake even a slight matter that would end in pain? |
| 41128 | Who is there in this world who is not changed by youth? |
| 41128 | Who is there that fears him not? |
| 41128 | Who is there that fears not the wicked, pitiless in causeless enmity; in whose mouth calumny hard to bear is always ready as the poison of a serpent? |
| 41128 | Who most remembers us, and whose affection is greatest?'' |
| 41128 | Who was he in a former birth, and how was he born in the form of a bird? |
| 41128 | Who were thy father and mother? |
| 41128 | Who will speak to her or look at her again, and who will mention her name?'' |
| 41128 | Whom shall I implore? |
| 41128 | Whose crest- jewels have not scraped his footstool? |
| 41128 | Whose daughter is she? |
| 41128 | Why dost thou, like a man of low caste, fail to restrain the turmoil of thy soul? |
| 41128 | Why has so long a time passed since we have seen thee? |
| 41128 | Why have I been so mad as to leave my followers behind and come so far? |
| 41128 | Why should I tell thee of those who have themselves chosen their lords? |
| 41128 | Why showest thou no pity? |
| 41128 | Why speakest thou thus? |
| 41128 | Why tell thy parents? |
| 41128 | Why then doubt concerning this? |
| 41128 | Why this needless talk of death as a necessary condition? |
| 41128 | Why toilest thou thus, like perverse fate, in so unmeet an employment, in that thou wastest in stern penance a body tender as a garland? |
| 41128 | Why wert thou not born as a parrot? |
| 41128 | Why, slender one, art thou unadorned? |
| 41128 | Why, then, this ceremony?'' |
| 41128 | Why, then,''thought he again,''should I thus weary my mind in vain? |
| 41128 | Will Kadambari support life till we arrive? |
| 41128 | With mingled scorn and pity he replied:''Wilt thou not even now restrain thine old impatience? |
| 41128 | With whom shall I wander, to whom speak, with whom hold converse? |
| 41128 | Yet if I could not be united to those I loved in past lives why should I yet live? |
| 41128 | Yet think not, my son, that I will live without thee, for how could I thus even face thy father? |
| 41128 | [ 283] Thou wilt not therefore surely place on the fire of grief that life so precious and so hardly preserved?'' |
| 41128 | [ 334] In his utter love madness, he says:''Tell me, Patralekha, how a madman can be rejected?'' |
| 41128 | [ 97] Does this refer to the reflection of the sky in its clear water? |
| 41128 | and my mother and all the zenana?'' |
| 41128 | and then, waiting a short time, she began afresh:''How is King Tarapida, how Queen Vilasavati, how the noble Çukanasa? |
| 41128 | and where thy superhuman power and thy capacity of reaching boundless knowledge? |
| 41128 | and why has not the stream of lac fallen on thy feet like early sunlight on rosy lotus- buds? |
| 41128 | and why is he coming hither?'' |
| 41128 | and why is that slender neck of thine, fair- limbed queen, not adorned with a rope of pearls as the crescent on Çiva''s brow by the heavenly stream? |
| 41128 | and will she do as I said?'' |
| 41128 | how has he become so close a friend to Mahaçveta? |
| 41128 | how much less one like me, whose heart is struck down by deep grief? |
| 41128 | if missed, what is the harm? |
| 41128 | or how bring an ill- omened mourning to his departure to heaven? |
| 41128 | or how weep at the joyous moment when, like the dust of his feet, I may follow him? |
| 41128 | or who else in the world is a friend like thee? |
| 7965 | ''Listenest thou always, O monarch, to the words, fraught with instructions in religion and wealth, of old men acquainted with economic doctrines? 7965 And Yudhishthira said,--''How can, O Sakuni, a king like me, always observant of the uses of his own order, refuse, when summoned to dice? |
| 7965 | Bhima at this once more said,--''Wretch darest thou, O Dussasana, use harsh words as these? 7965 Dhritarashtra said,--''Duryodhana, what is the reason of thy great affliction, O son of the Kuru race? |
| 7965 | Draupadi said,--''Why, O Pratikamin, dost thou say so? 7965 Narada said--''Is the wealth thou art earning being spent on proper objects? |
| 7965 | Vidura said,--''Dost thou not know, O wretch, that by uttering such harsh words thou art tying thyself with cords? 7965 Yudhishthira said,--''Besides the sons of Dhritarashtra what other dishonest gamblers are there ready for play? |
| 7965 | Yudhishthira said--''O Krishna, who is this Jarasandha? 7965 ''Hath the stake been won?'' 7965 Achievest thou thy measures through persons that are trusted incorruptible, and possessed of practical experience? 7965 Alas, O Krishna,( Draupadi), why dost thou leave me so? 7965 And Sakuni, beholding him absent- minded, said,--''O Duryodhana, why art thou proceeding thus''? 7965 And from within it even the women might fight the foe, what to speak of the Yadava heroes without fear of any kind? 7965 And having conquered them, seekest thou to protect them with care? 7965 And having gone out against them, exertest thou to the utmost to obtain victory over them? 7965 And how Arjuna? 7965 And how the illustrious Draupadi? 7965 And how the twin sons of Madri? 7965 And how, O Kshatta, doth Dhaumya proceed along? 7965 And they asked him, saying;--Who amongst us is superior( to the other)? |
| 7965 | And who also upon Vasava, the Lord of the celestials and upon Yama, the son of Vivaswana? |
| 7965 | And, O Bhishma, if thy mind is always inclined to sing the praises of others, why dost thou not praise Salya and other rulers of the earth? |
| 7965 | And, O bull of the Bharata race, do thy ministers rule thy kingdom under thy orders? |
| 7965 | And, O persecutor of all foes, givest thou gems and jewels, unto the principal officers of enemy, as they deserve, without thy enemy''s knowledge? |
| 7965 | Are all the principal chieftains( of thy empire) all devoted to thee? |
| 7965 | Are all the principal high- born men devoted to thee, and ready with cheerfulness to lay down their lives in battle for thy sake? |
| 7965 | Are all these entirely under thy supervision and sway? |
| 7965 | Are the agriculturists in thy kingdom wanting in either seed or food? |
| 7965 | Are they ready to lay down their lives for thy sake, commanded by thee? |
| 7965 | Are thieves and robbers that sack thy town pursued by thy police over the even and uneven parts of thy kingdom? |
| 7965 | Are those amongst thy foes that are feeble always repressed by the help of troops that are strong, by the help of both counsels and troops? |
| 7965 | Are thy foes unable to injure it? |
| 7965 | Are thy forts always filled with treasure, food, weapons, water, engines and instruments, as also with engineers and bowmen? |
| 7965 | Arrayed let us stand in battle against the assembled Vrishnis and the Pandavas?'' |
| 7965 | Arrived here by such an improper way, why accept ye not the worship I offer? |
| 7965 | Arrogant and ignorant as thou art, and desirous of praising Kesava, why doth not this tongue of thine split up into a hundred parts? |
| 7965 | Art thou enjoying the pleasures of life? |
| 7965 | Art thou unmindful of thy own interests? |
| 7965 | Beholding their sovereignty over the world and vast affluence, as also that sacrifice, who is there like me that would not smart under all that? |
| 7965 | Born the eldest among all thy brothers, living within thy own kingdom, why regardest thou thyself as unhappy? |
| 7965 | Breaking down the peak of the Chaityaka hill, why have ye, in disguise, entered( the city) by an improper gate without fear of the royal wrath? |
| 7965 | But Dhritarashtra glad at heart, asked repeatedly,''Hath the stake been won?'' |
| 7965 | But O king, could our enemies have said so unto me, it thou hadst not played staking this princess?''" |
| 7965 | But angry or friendly, what canst thou do unto me?'' |
| 7965 | But what shall I say, O Keshava? |
| 7965 | But why is it, O Sakuni, that thou askest me of my wealth? |
| 7965 | Buyest thou a single learned man by giving in exchange a thousand ignorant individuals? |
| 7965 | Can it be possible that even a single son of mine will live? |
| 7965 | Can the dog slay the lion? |
| 7965 | Cherishest thou always, with food and wealth, relatives, superiors, merchants, the aged, and other proteges, and the distressed? |
| 7965 | Commencest thou soon to accomplish measures of great utility that are easy of accomplishment? |
| 7965 | Consolest thou women and are they protected in thy realm? |
| 7965 | Consumed by the fire of the Pandava, they all forgave that offence; otherwise who is there that could forgive it? |
| 7965 | Deprivest thou, through covetousness or folly, of their pensions the proteges who have sought thy shelter from trustfulness or love? |
| 7965 | Didst thou lose thyself first or me?'' |
| 7965 | Dismissest thou without fault servants accomplished in business and popular and devoted to thy welfare? |
| 7965 | Do priests capable of granting thee auspicious fruits ever stand by thy side? |
| 7965 | Do the people that inhabit thy realm, bought by thy foes, ever seek to raise disputes with thee, uniting themselves with one another? |
| 7965 | Do thy servants, O king, ever speak to thee in the forenoon regarding thy extravagant expenditure in respect of thy drinks, sports, and women? |
| 7965 | Dost thou carefully follow the practices that were followed by them? |
| 7965 | Dost thou come here in happiness and peace? |
| 7965 | Dost thou not know that being a deer thou provokest so many tigers to rage? |
| 7965 | Dost thou not understand that thou art hanging on the edge of a precipice? |
| 7965 | Dost thou worship Brahmanas and wise men according to their merits in respect of various branches of learning? |
| 7965 | Doth not thy mind sink under their weight? |
| 7965 | Doth thy mind take pleasure in virtue? |
| 7965 | Else, could he not find any other object to stake?'' |
| 7965 | Else, how is it that the chaste wife of the Pandavas, the sister of Prishata''s son, the friend of Vasudeva, is brought before this assembly? |
| 7965 | Else, why do these foremost of the Kuru elders look silently on this great crime?''" |
| 7965 | Examinest thou also, after a survey of thy own strength and weakness, the fourteen possessions of thy foes? |
| 7965 | Fool as thou art, who else, O Jarasandha, is capable of behaving in this way? |
| 7965 | For the protection of thy city, have the villages been made like towns, and the hamlets and outskirts of villages like villages? |
| 7965 | For what reason then dost thou yet regard her as not won? |
| 7965 | Givest thou to thy troops their sanctioned rations and pay in the appointed time? |
| 7965 | Go not, O king, unto the region of Yama, with thy sons and troops, for who is there that is capable of fighting with the sons of Pritha, together? |
| 7965 | Grantest thou with kindness loans( of seed- grains) unto the tillers, taking only a fourth in excess of every measure by the hundred? |
| 7965 | Hast thou appointed to high offices ministers that are guileless and of well conduct for generations and above the common run? |
| 7965 | Hast thou banished these six evils, O monarch, viz., sleep, idleness, fear, anger, weakness of mind, and procrastination?''" |
| 7965 | Hast thou faith in the religion based on the three Vedas and practised by men who have gone before thee? |
| 7965 | Hast thou never heard, O Bhishma, that reproach and glorification, both of self and others, are not practices of those that are respectable? |
| 7965 | Hast thou not ever heard, from wise men speaking unto thee, what I would now tell thee? |
| 7965 | Hath Dhata( Brahma) himself forgotten to ordain my death? |
| 7965 | Hath thy study of the Vedas, thy wealth and knowledge of the Sastras and marriage been fruitful?''" |
| 7965 | Having perpetrated that wicked wrong how dost thou regard thyself as innocent? |
| 7965 | Hostility with whom else than thee is so sure of leading to heaven, proud as thou art of the excessive strength of thy vast Magadha host? |
| 7965 | How can I, therefore, O hero, give thee, O sinless one, leave to go? |
| 7965 | How can he said then to have staked voluntarily? |
| 7965 | How can one who is such, deserve praise, O Bhishma? |
| 7965 | How can, O son of Pritha, any weak monarch approach him with hostile intentions? |
| 7965 | How dost thou, from thy wish alone, establish the whole universe in the servitor and cowherd of Bhoja( Kansa)? |
| 7965 | How doth he of the Dasarha race, who is not even a king, accept worship before these kings and how is it that he hath been worshipped by ye? |
| 7965 | How is it, O Kshatta, that thou dost not fear this sin? |
| 7965 | How shall ye now, losing your wealth and possessions, live poor in the pathless woods? |
| 7965 | How then can his followers expect to come across a right path? |
| 7965 | How, O Arjuna, can a son born from this insulted wife of ours prove serviceable to us?'' |
| 7965 | How, O Bharata, hast thou, passing him over, offered the first worship unto Krishna? |
| 7965 | How, O son of Pandu, passing over Druma, the preceptor of the Kimpurusas, hast thou worshipped Krishna? |
| 7965 | I ask thee, therefore, whether there is even one such minister with thee? |
| 7965 | I have been only the instrument, I am capable of swallowing the mountain of Meru itself, what shall I say of the child? |
| 7965 | I hope thou placest not any confidence in them, nor divulgest any secret before any of them? |
| 7965 | If at thy word, O Bhishma, one that hath slain women( meaning Putana) and kine be worshipped, then what is to become of this great lesson? |
| 7965 | If this one is the lord of the universe, as this fool representeth him to be, why doth he not regard himself as a Brahmana? |
| 7965 | If this one threw drown by a kick an inanimate piece of wood, viz., a car, what is there, O Bhishma, wonderful in that? |
| 7965 | If, O Bharata, it was your wish to offer the first worship unto the slayer of Madhu, why were these monarchs brought here to be insulted thus? |
| 7965 | If, disguising our own faults, we attack the enemy taking advantage of his loopholes, why should we not succeed? |
| 7965 | Is the priest thou honourest, possessed of humility, and purity of blood, and renown, and without jealousy and illiberality? |
| 7965 | Is thy expenditure always covered by a fourth, a third or a half of thy income? |
| 7965 | It was then that at the advice of Vidura I addressed Krishna and said,"I will grant thee boons, O Krishna, indeed, whatever thou wouldst ask?" |
| 7965 | Keepest thou the agriculturists not out of thy sight? |
| 7965 | Makest thou peace and makest thou war at proper times? |
| 7965 | Never injurest thou religion for the sake of wealth, or both religion and wealth for the sake of pleasure that easily seduces? |
| 7965 | Not to speak of others, is the chief of the celestials at the head of the celestials themselves, capable of doing so?'' |
| 7965 | O Bharata, dost thou employ superior, indifferent, and low men, after examining them well in offices they deserve? |
| 7965 | O Bhima, what king is there on earth that would dare abuse me thus, as this wretch of his race, already possessed by Death, hath done to- day? |
| 7965 | O Bhishma, what is there remarkable in this one''s having supported for a week the Govardhan mount which is like an anthill? |
| 7965 | O Brahmana, how didst thou also meet with my father, the exalted Pandu, now a guest in the region of the Pitris? |
| 7965 | O Brahmana, what are the articles with which each of the Sabhas are made of? |
| 7965 | O Krishna, O thou who dwellest in Dwaraka, O younger brother of Sankarshana, where art thou? |
| 7965 | O Pandu, O king, where art thou? |
| 7965 | O best of monarchs, how can a king act wrongfully towards other virtuous kings? |
| 7965 | O bull of the Bharata race, who is there that will provoke the peaceful sons of Pritha? |
| 7965 | O bull of the Kuru race, if thou regardest Krishna as the oldest in age, here is Vasudeva, and how can his son be said so in his presence? |
| 7965 | O child, are the four professions of agriculture, trade, cattle- rearing, and lending at interest, carried on by honest men? |
| 7965 | O child, is thy kingdom protected by ministers learned in Sastras, keeping their counsels close? |
| 7965 | O exalted one of excellent vows hath he told thee anything? |
| 7965 | O grandsire, have those portents been ended by the fall of the king of the Chedis?''" |
| 7965 | O king when the state of my mind is such, what do I care now for life, for the Pandavas are daily growing while our possessions know no increase?'' |
| 7965 | O king, what can be done by me when( it seemeth) thou hast not heard anything before from virtuous old men giving lessons in morality? |
| 7965 | O lord of Earth, art thou equal unto all men, and can every one approach thee without fear, as if thou wert their mother and father? |
| 7965 | O monarch, employest thou in thy business persons that are thievish or open to temptation, or hostile, or minors? |
| 7965 | O monarch, goest thou out against thy enemies, having first strengthened thy own kingdom? |
| 7965 | O monarch, having heard of any danger and having reflected on it also, liest thou in the inner apartments enjoying every agreeable object? |
| 7965 | O oppressor of all foes, O great king, I hope thou slayest thy foes without regarding their seasons of reaping and of famine? |
| 7965 | O represser of all foes, do men dressed in red and armed with swords and adorned with ornaments stand by thy side to protect thy person? |
| 7965 | O sinless one, art thou acquainted with all mysterious incantations, and with the secrets of poisons destructive of all foes? |
| 7965 | O sinless one, causest thou ever grief or anger in any one? |
| 7965 | O slayer of all foes, watchest thou all thy enemies with care and attention, and unknown to them? |
| 7965 | O son of Dhritarashtra, how dost thou regard Krishna as not won, when the eldest of the Pandavas before this assembly staked all his possessions? |
| 7965 | O son of Pritha, seekest thou to cure bodily diseases by medicines and fasts, and mental illness with the advice of the aged? |
| 7965 | Observest thou neutrality towards strangers and persons that are neutral towards thee? |
| 7965 | Of great renown, what can he not achieve when with ye two? |
| 7965 | Oppressest thou not thy people with cruel and severe punishment? |
| 7965 | Or, O son of Kuru, regardest thou Krishna as preceptor? |
| 7965 | Or, O son of Kuru, regardest thou Krishna as the Ritwija? |
| 7965 | Or, dost thou entertain hostile feeling towards me? |
| 7965 | Or, if thou regardest Vasudeva as your well- wisher and supporter, here is Drupada; how then can Madhava deserve the( first) worship? |
| 7965 | Or, what need is there of words or of command? |
| 7965 | Passing over that foremost of bowmen-- that excellent of kings, Rukmin of great energy, why praisest thou Kesava? |
| 7965 | Persecutest thou thy kingdom by the help of thievish or covetous men, or minors, or women? |
| 7965 | Protectest thou thy kingdom from the fear of fire, of snakes and other animals destructive of life, of disease, and Rakshasas? |
| 7965 | Such measures are never obstructed? |
| 7965 | The counsels thou hast resolved upon, do not become known all over thy kingdom? |
| 7965 | The two midwives( that waited upon the queens) then carefully wrapping up the still- born(?) |
| 7965 | Then, O monarch, the king of Chedi offered his kingdom unto Bhima and said smilingly,--''O sinless one, upon what art thou bent?'' |
| 7965 | Therefore, O thou parasite, why dost thou obstruct us so? |
| 7965 | Therefore, who is there that will not envy ye? |
| 7965 | Therefore, why regardest thou Krishna who hath been justly won as not won? |
| 7965 | They do not fear to approach thee? |
| 7965 | Thou ascertainest, I hope, what thy friends, foes and strangers are about? |
| 7965 | Thou dost not oppress them by withholding these? |
| 7965 | Thou hast not become the slave of sleep? |
| 7965 | Thou settlest nothing alone, nor takest counsels with many? |
| 7965 | Thou wilt then enjoy the whole earth; what need hast thou with me?''" |
| 7965 | Thy counsels, I hope, are never divulged by thy trusted spies in disguise, by thyself or by thy ministers? |
| 7965 | Unwilling as I am to gamble, I will not do so, if the wicked Sakuni doth not summon me to it in the Sabha? |
| 7965 | Wakest thou at the proper time? |
| 7965 | We will succeed in warding off the fates by exertion alone?'' |
| 7965 | What boon shall I give thee? |
| 7965 | What can be more distressing to me, than that though high- born and chaste, I should yet be compelled to enter this public court? |
| 7965 | What can they do thee?'' |
| 7965 | What dost thou gain by winning from the Pandavas their vast wealth? |
| 7965 | What dost thou think fit for us? |
| 7965 | What is his energy and what is his prowess, that having touched thee he hath not been burnt like an insect at the touch of fire?'' |
| 7965 | What is the area of each, and what is the length and breadth of each? |
| 7965 | What is there in this to make thee sorry? |
| 7965 | What is there to make thee sorry for this? |
| 7965 | What is there to make thee sorry for this? |
| 7965 | What is thy counter stake, O great king,--the wealth with which thou wishest to play with me?'' |
| 7965 | What is your motive for coming to me?'' |
| 7965 | What it is, therefore, that hath made thee pale and emaciated? |
| 7965 | What kings also were present in that assembly, and who amongst them approved of the gambling match and who amongst them forbade it? |
| 7965 | What love can we bear to the wicked and avaricious Kurus?" |
| 7965 | What man is there in the world possessed of vigour who can bear to see his foes in the enjoyment of prosperity and himself in destitution? |
| 7965 | What man is there, who knowing all this, will consent to gamble? |
| 7965 | What prince is there who playeth staking his wife? |
| 7965 | What shall I do, O aunt? |
| 7965 | What shall I do, therefore, with my kingdom or with a boon?"'' |
| 7965 | When Drona is here, how hast thou worshipped him of the Vrishni race? |
| 7965 | When I have never done ye an injury, why, ye Brahmanas do ye regard me, who am innocent, as your foe? |
| 7965 | When old Dwaipayana is here, how hath Krishna been worshipped by thee? |
| 7965 | When one hath placed on the neck and back of venomous snakes full of wrath for encompassing his destruction, is it possible for him to take them off? |
| 7965 | When the brave Aswatthaman, versed in every branch of knowledge is here, why, O king, hath Krishna, O thou of the Kuru race, been worshipped by thee? |
| 7965 | When, therefore, thou taken fright at Jarasandha''s might, how should I regard myself strong in comparison with him? |
| 7965 | Whence is this reverse of fortune? |
| 7965 | Where is that virtue for which these kings were noted? |
| 7965 | Where is thy virtue, O Bhishma? |
| 7965 | Whether, therefore, the means is virtuous or sinful, what scruples can there be in the duties of one''s own order? |
| 7965 | Who amongst us shall prepare himself for battle( with thee)?'' |
| 7965 | Who are ye, therefore, thus decked with flowers, and with hands bearing the marks of the bow- string? |
| 7965 | Who else is there in the world of men save Kesava that is so distinguished? |
| 7965 | Who hath been kept here that hath not been defeated in war? |
| 7965 | Who is there among them that will forgive that insult to Draupadi? |
| 7965 | Who is there that can stake equally with me? |
| 7965 | Who is there that will break an embankment which hath been completed, or re- kindle a conflagration which hath been extinguished? |
| 7965 | Who wait upon the Grandsire in that assembly room? |
| 7965 | Who will regard as praiseworthy the act which was done by Kesava, as also by Bhima and Arjuna, in the matter of Jarasandha''s death? |
| 7965 | Who, O Bhishma, knowing himself to be virtuous and superior in knowledge, will so act as thou hast done from motives of virtue? |
| 7965 | Whom doth it behave to transgress his virtuous eldest brother? |
| 7965 | Whom doth it behove to boast, thus having won wealth by foul means? |
| 7965 | Why also, O Janarddana, didst thou accept the worship of which thou art unworthy, although it was offered unto thee by those mean- minded princes? |
| 7965 | Why do not these best of regenerate ones answer the question? |
| 7965 | Why dost thou not deliver me and these best of men also from such woe? |
| 7965 | Why dost thou not, after due enquiry, ascertain the grief that is in the heart of thy eldest son, the grief that is caused by the foe?'' |
| 7965 | Why dost thou, therefore, seek to perform a sacrifice unto god Sankara by slaughtering human beings? |
| 7965 | Why shall we not, therefore, meet together and oppose Jarsandha in battle? |
| 7965 | Why should you, therefore, regard us as incompetent? |
| 7965 | Why shouldst thou then longer wait upon the fallen sons of Pandu? |
| 7965 | Why shouldst thou, therefore, be jealous of him? |
| 7965 | Why shouldst thou, therefore, covet, from folly, the property of thy brother? |
| 7965 | Why sufferest thou quietly thy good children to be thus sent into exile, defeated at dice? |
| 7965 | Why then, O Bhishma, was that virtuous girl Amva, who had set her heart upon another, carried off by thee, so proud of wisdom and virtue? |
| 7965 | Why wishest thou not to praise them? |
| 7965 | Why, then, O king, dost thou praise gambling so? |
| 7965 | With whom in this assembly am I to play? |
| 7965 | With whom( as stake) wilt thou now play?''" |
| 7965 | Ye my dear ones, if Time hath intended so what need is there for me to live?'' |
| 16659 | How can the world, the beautiful human world, be too much with us? 16659 What is this insinuation?" |
| 16659 | What will he do when he hears it, this holy, austere man? |
| 16659 | You mighty gods that flit about in heaven And take my foeman''s part, what would you say? 16659 A creation of his mind? 16659 A king of Puru''s mighty line Chastises shameless churls; What insolent is he who baits These artless hermit- girls? 16659 A picture? 16659 Accompanied by women? 16659 After all, what does it matter whether he have issue or not? 16659 Ancient Shakalya, how is Marichi''s holy son occupied? 16659 And how can I perform the last adorning Of thy poor body, as befits a wife? 16659 And if another touch it? 16659 And is it selfish longing then, That draws our souls on high Through eyes that have forgot to wink, As the new moon climbs the sky? 16659 And tell the king from me:You saw the matter, How I was guiltless proved in fire divine; Will you desert me for mere idle chatter? |
| 16659 | And will you leave me too? |
| 16659 | Anusuya, do you know why Shakuntala looks so hard at the Light of the Grove? |
| 16659 | Are my friends gone? |
| 16659 | Are n''t you the king? |
| 16659 | Are such things done in Raghu''s royal line? |
| 16659 | Are you not ashamed to say these incredible things, especially in my presence? |
| 16659 | But how could human beings, of their own mere motion, attain this spot? |
| 16659 | But how did it get into a carp''s mouth, as if it had been a fish- hook? |
| 16659 | But how does she feel toward you? |
| 16659 | But how will you fare? |
| 16659 | But shall not my arrow see you? |
| 16659 | But what brought back the memory of your suffering wife? |
| 16659 | But what do you not deserve from heaven''s king? |
| 16659 | But what does Gautami say? |
| 16659 | But what does he do if he is not content? |
| 16659 | But what is the business? |
| 16659 | But what shall I do now that I am awake? |
| 16659 | But where is Spring? |
| 16659 | But who will care for poor us? |
| 16659 | But whom shall we ask to take it? |
| 16659 | But why did you act thus toward Madhavya? |
| 16659 | But why does she cover her face with fingers lovely as the pink water- lily? |
| 16659 | But why should I not trust you? |
| 16659 | But, man, do n''t you understand what the words mean? |
| 16659 | But, my dear, who told Father Kanva about it? |
| 16659 | Ca n''t you see? |
| 16659 | Can it fly? |
| 16659 | Can the audience feel any respect for the work of a modern poet, a Kalidasa? |
| 16659 | Can there be more than this? |
| 16659 | Can you go away Sudden, without a word? |
| 16659 | Could I forsake the virtuous wife Who held my best, my future life And cherished it for glorious birth, As does the seed- receiving earth? |
| 16659 | Crushing a few sweetmeats? |
| 16659 | Dear friend, whose art could fashion The flowery arrow for thee? |
| 16659 | Did she with father speak or mother? |
| 16659 | Did you engage her friends in speech? |
| 16659 | Did you ever see this happen to any one else? |
| 16659 | Did you have a good bath, dear? |
| 16659 | Did you want her to climb into your lap the first time she saw you? |
| 16659 | Do leaguèd powers of sin conspire To balk religion''s pure desire? |
| 16659 | Do plants no longer bud and flower, To warn me of abuse of power? |
| 16659 | Do you dare despise a guest like me? |
| 16659 | Do you dare pluck the mango- blossoms? |
| 16659 | Do you dare show independence? |
| 16659 | Do you feel better, dear, when we fan you with these lotus- leaves? |
| 16659 | Do you not see? |
| 16659 | Does a bull forget that he is tired when you call him the leader of the herd? |
| 16659 | Does she feel toward me as I do toward her? |
| 16659 | Does your pious life proceed without disturbance? |
| 16659 | Father, when shall I see the pious grove again? |
| 16659 | For Why should the trembling, born Of age, increasing, seize Your limbs and bid them shake Like fig- leaves in the breeze? |
| 16659 | Fresher honey''s sweet, I know; But can you forget? |
| 16659 | From Kanva? |
| 16659 | From what? |
| 16659 | Had you forgotten, as I did? |
| 16659 | Harita, my son, whence come these things? |
| 16659 | Has the fever gone down? |
| 16659 | Has the wrath Of dreadful Shiva, in excess of passion, Bade him, too, follow on that fatal path?" |
| 16659 | Has wrong been done to beasts that roam Contented round the hermits''home? |
| 16659 | Have you forgot so soon the torture given By shafts of mine that never miss their way? |
| 16659 | Have you heard the gossip concerning Shakuntala''s rejection? |
| 16659 | Have you not a humble servant here, to take the place of your friends? |
| 16659 | Have you nothing to say, O King? |
| 16659 | Hermit, why deceive this woman? |
| 16659 | Hermits? |
| 16659 | How can I live in another soil? |
| 16659 | How can I take her, confessing myself an adulterer? |
| 16659 | How can sympathy with one form of life do other than vivify our sympathy with other forms of life?" |
| 16659 | How can that be? |
| 16659 | How can they be so sharp? |
| 16659 | How can you be tempted so By the lily, pet? |
| 16659 | How can you think me so indifferent? |
| 16659 | How could it have been? |
| 16659 | How could she notice a guest when she has forgotten herself? |
| 16659 | How could that gentle life endure The deadly arrow, sharp and sure? |
| 16659 | How could the pious duties fail While you defend the right? |
| 16659 | How could these things be in a hermitage that rests in the fame of the king''s arm? |
| 16659 | How could we understand his birth? |
| 16659 | How could you fail to linger On her soft, tapering finger, And in the water fall? |
| 16659 | How could you fall? |
| 16659 | How did you escape? |
| 16659 | How do you perceive it? |
| 16659 | How explain a reputation that maintains itself indefinitely and that conquers a new continent after a lapse of thirteen hundred years? |
| 16659 | How shall we adorn you? |
| 16659 | How so? |
| 16659 | How so? |
| 16659 | How so? |
| 16659 | How so? |
| 16659 | How were you born his daughter, for you are beautiful? |
| 16659 | I ask_ you_ which is the heavier sin: Not knowing whether I be mad Or falsehood be in her, Shall I desert a faithful wife Or turn adulterer? |
| 16659 | I dare not hope for what I pray; Why thrill-- in vain? |
| 16659 | I know not if I read your heart aright; Why, pitiless, do you distress me so? |
| 16659 | If fate brings this about of itself, why should n''t Father be happy? |
| 16659 | If you deserve such scorn and blame, What will your father with your shame? |
| 16659 | In place of him thou seekest, what is found? |
| 16659 | In which direction lies the hermitage of Marichi''s son? |
| 16659 | In which path of the winds are we? |
| 16659 | Is holy Kanva in health? |
| 16659 | Is it right for you to speak so now, and to reject me? |
| 16659 | Is it the heat, or is it as I hope? |
| 16659 | Is n''t the_ shakunta_ lovely? |
| 16659 | Is not that good Scripture? |
| 16659 | Is the hermit father there? |
| 16659 | It appears that Urvashi had taken the heroine''s part in the drama just presented there, and when asked,"On whom is your heart set?" |
| 16659 | It ought to be enough for me To hover round your fragrant face; Is not the lotus- haunting bee Content with perfume and with grace? |
| 16659 | Madhavya, have you no curiosity to see Shakuntala? |
| 16659 | Matali, Sprung from the Creator''s children, do I see Great Kashyapa and Mother Aditi? |
| 16659 | Matali, was not this matter known to Indra? |
| 16659 | Matali, what mountain is this, its flanks sinking into the eastern and into the western sea? |
| 16659 | May I fasten it in another way? |
| 16659 | May I hear the whole story? |
| 16659 | May I hope that she is the hermit''s daughter by a mother of a different caste? |
| 16659 | May I know the reason of your coming? |
| 16659 | May we ask you to seek better entertainment from us another time? |
| 16659 | Mother, if he is not the son of a hermit, what is his family? |
| 16659 | Must my friends turn back too? |
| 16659 | My daughter, why distress yourself so? |
| 16659 | My dear, why should you follow me when I am going away from home? |
| 16659 | My friend, And was it phantom, madness, dream, Or fatal retribution stern? |
| 16659 | My friend, how can I endure a grief that has no respite? |
| 16659 | My friend, is this Dushyanta, friend of Indra? |
| 16659 | My friend, where shall I sit now to comfort my eyes with the vines? |
| 16659 | My question is this: Does she, till marriage only, keep her vow As hermit- maid, that shames the ways of love? |
| 16659 | Naughty boy, why do you torment our pets? |
| 16659 | Now will you get out with your strenuous life? |
| 16659 | O mighty Brahman, who could suspect it? |
| 16659 | O mighty god, wilt thou not show me mercy after such reproaches? |
| 16659 | O welcome guest of the flowering vine, why do you waste your time in buzzing here? |
| 16659 | Oh, are you fanning me, my dear girls? |
| 16659 | Oh, has the spring really come? |
| 16659 | Oh, my heart, why tremble so? |
| 16659 | Oh, what shall we do? |
| 16659 | Oh, why do I have such feelings when I see this man? |
| 16659 | Oh, why does my right eye throb? |
| 16659 | Or how could darkness''power prevail O''er sunbeams shining bright? |
| 16659 | Or must her soft eyes ever see, as now, Soft eyes of friendly deer in peaceful grove? |
| 16659 | Or take your lily feet upon my knee And rub them till you rest more easily? |
| 16659 | Or weaves a string of bees with deft invention, To speed the missile when the bow is bent? |
| 16659 | Otherwise, how could the good king say such beautiful things, and then let all this time pass without even sending a message? |
| 16659 | Otherwise, how could you, dear, have acted so? |
| 16659 | Priyamvada, can you think of any scheme by which we could carry out her wishes quickly and secretly? |
| 16659 | Priyamvada, for whom are you carrying this cuscus- salve and the fibrous lotus- leaves? |
| 16659 | Really? |
| 16659 | Sent by my mother? |
| 16659 | Shall I ever be adorned by my friends again? |
| 16659 | Shall I make him happy now? |
| 16659 | Shall I tell at once who I am, or conceal it? |
| 16659 | Shall we neglect the works of such illustrious authors as Bhasa, Saumilla, and Kaviputra? |
| 16659 | Shall we sit down? |
| 16659 | She gazed at her husband, then spoke passionately:"O shameless king, although you know, why do you say,''I do not know,''like any other ordinary man?" |
| 16659 | She rose and cried aloud:"Dost thou yet live, Lord of my life?" |
| 16659 | Should you now desert your wife-- you who fear to fail in virtue? |
| 16659 | So ill, and all alone here with the gods? |
| 16659 | Surely, she may become a warrior''s bride; Else, why these longings in an honest mind? |
| 16659 | Tell me, what shall I do for you? |
| 16659 | That Shakuntala has become seriously ill from the heat, and that these things are to relieve her suffering? |
| 16659 | That he is explaining to Aditi, in answer to her question, the duties of a faithful wife? |
| 16659 | The deed is done; what kindly act can I Perform who, pitiless, deserve to die?" |
| 16659 | The moral stumblings of mine own, The daily slips, are scarcely known; Who then that rules a kingdom, can Guide every deed of every man? |
| 16659 | Then could my thought be true? |
| 16659 | Then tell me: Shall I employ the moistened lotus- leaf To fan away your weariness and grief? |
| 16659 | Then why do you tremble so? |
| 16659 | Then why may I not welcome my hopes fulfilled at last? |
| 16659 | Then, when he did not see the sage, and perceived that the hermitage was deserted, he cried aloud,"Who is here?" |
| 16659 | There is no lack of a certain shrewdness in the clown, as when he observes:"Who wants heaven? |
| 16659 | Thou never didst a thing to cause me anguish; I never did a thing to work thee harm; Why should I thus in vain affliction languish? |
| 16659 | Though uncreate, thou seekest birth; Dreaming, thou watchest heaven and earth; Passionless, smitest low thy foes; Who knows thy nature, Lord? |
| 16659 | To whom do you belong, you wicked hermit- woman? |
| 16659 | Vetravati, did you not meet Queen Vasumati? |
| 16659 | Vetravati, with what purpose does Father Kanva send these hermits to me? |
| 16659 | Well, sir? |
| 16659 | Well, what? |
| 16659 | Well? |
| 16659 | Well? |
| 16659 | What am I to do? |
| 16659 | What are her commands? |
| 16659 | What are his commands? |
| 16659 | What are you chirping about to yourself, little cuckoo? |
| 16659 | What are you going to add? |
| 16659 | What better occupation could we have? |
| 16659 | What can I do? |
| 16659 | What can I do? |
| 16659 | What can the poor child do with a husband base enough to reject her? |
| 16659 | What commands would it be fitting for me to lay on King Dushyanta? |
| 16659 | What condition? |
| 16659 | What country is grieving at your absence? |
| 16659 | What did it say? |
| 16659 | What do you mean, my dear? |
| 16659 | What do you say? |
| 16659 | What do you say? |
| 16659 | What does Shakuntala say? |
| 16659 | What does this mean? |
| 16659 | What for? |
| 16659 | What has happened there? |
| 16659 | What have I to do here, where she is not? |
| 16659 | What is hidden from the gods? |
| 16659 | What is it, dear? |
| 16659 | What is the use of seeing her? |
| 16659 | What is this insinuation? |
| 16659 | What is to be done? |
| 16659 | What is your pleasure with regard to them? |
| 16659 | What is your question? |
| 16659 | What makes you lame? |
| 16659 | What means this dreadful accusation? |
| 16659 | What more can I say? |
| 16659 | What more can I say? |
| 16659 | What more could I ask? |
| 16659 | What more could I mean? |
| 16659 | What more, my son, shall I do for you? |
| 16659 | What must a father feel, when come The pangs of parting from his child at home? |
| 16659 | What of that? |
| 16659 | What play shall we give them to keep their good- will? |
| 16659 | What pretext do you need? |
| 16659 | What royal family do you adorn, sir? |
| 16659 | What season of the year shall I sing about? |
| 16659 | What shall we do first? |
| 16659 | What then? |
| 16659 | What was the name of the good king whose wife she was? |
| 16659 | What will my husband say? |
| 16659 | What would happen if I deceived the girl? |
| 16659 | What would he do? |
| 16659 | What''s the good of talking? |
| 16659 | What? |
| 16659 | What? |
| 16659 | When I left the pious grove for the city, my darling wept and said:"But how long will you remember us, dear?" |
| 16659 | When Shiva''s anger burned the tree Of love in quenchless fire, Did heavenly fate preserve a shoot To deck my heart''s desire? |
| 16659 | When a reed bends over like a hunchback, do you blame the reed or the river- current? |
| 16659 | Whence are you, sweet girl, so lovely and so good? |
| 16659 | Where are Sharngarava and Sharadvata? |
| 16659 | Where are you going now? |
| 16659 | Where art thou gone? |
| 16659 | Where has the blessèd one gone, sweet girl? |
| 16659 | Where is it? |
| 16659 | Where is my mamma? |
| 16659 | Where is the stairway, Parvatayana? |
| 16659 | Where shall I go now to rest from my weariness? |
| 16659 | Where shall I go now? |
| 16659 | Which one do you think? |
| 16659 | Which one is the lady Shakuntala? |
| 16659 | Which one of the hermit- boys is here? |
| 16659 | Whither are you flown? |
| 16659 | Who are we, that we should save you? |
| 16659 | Who could appease him? |
| 16659 | Who draws such a rebuke upon himself? |
| 16659 | Who else would dare to touch a faithful wife? |
| 16659 | Who is he, dear? |
| 16659 | Who is he, mother? |
| 16659 | Who is it that keeps pulling at my dress, as if to hinder me? |
| 16659 | Who is she, shrouded in the veil That dims her beauty''s lustre, Among the hermits like a flower Round which the dead leaves cluster? |
| 16659 | Who is the man that soils my boy with his caresses? |
| 16659 | Who knows? |
| 16659 | Who stands without? |
| 16659 | Who waits without? |
| 16659 | Who waits without? |
| 16659 | Who will believe what you say? |
| 16659 | Who will bid me welcome? |
| 16659 | Who would speak his name? |
| 16659 | Whose are you, lovely maiden? |
| 16659 | Why accuse a fate that brings what you desire? |
| 16659 | Why am I filled with wistfulness on hearing such a song? |
| 16659 | Why are you crooked when I am straight? |
| 16659 | Why bandy words? |
| 16659 | Why did his Majesty forbid the spring festival? |
| 16659 | Why did you come to the forest? |
| 16659 | Why did you try to prevent me? |
| 16659 | Why do n''t you go now? |
| 16659 | Why do you hide your trouble? |
| 16659 | Why do you say that, mother? |
| 16659 | Why do you trust this girl, and accuse me of an imaginary crime? |
| 16659 | Why does a gentleman so delicately bred submit to the weary journey into our pious grove? |
| 16659 | Why fight with me? |
| 16659 | Why not accuse a fate that robs me of self- control and tempts me with the virtues of another? |
| 16659 | Why not return to bless thy grieving Charm? |
| 16659 | Why not? |
| 16659 | Why not? |
| 16659 | Why not? |
| 16659 | Why remind him? |
| 16659 | Why should I fear before a six- days child? |
| 16659 | Why should I not have my way? |
| 16659 | Why should I not tell it? |
| 16659 | Why should I thrill? |
| 16659 | Why should his tender form expire, As blossoms perish in the fire? |
| 16659 | Why should my heart go out to this boy as if he were my own son? |
| 16659 | Why should n''t I give her water? |
| 16659 | Why should you prowl in heaven and gibber shrill, Like dogs that in an autumn night run wild, Like deer that sneak through forests, trembling still? |
| 16659 | Why should you run On certain death? |
| 16659 | Why speculate in vain? |
| 16659 | Why this? |
| 16659 | Why? |
| 16659 | Why? |
| 16659 | Why? |
| 16659 | Will he not go, though I warn him? |
| 16659 | Will his Majesty take action?" |
| 16659 | Will you not obey my command? |
| 16659 | Will you not recognise me? |
| 16659 | Will you not take pity on her and save her life? |
| 16659 | Will you permit me to blow it away? |
| 16659 | With his mystery, and his dignity, and his courtesy? |
| 16659 | Wo n''t you mind me? |
| 16659 | Would any one sprinkle a jasmine- vine with scalding water? |
| 16659 | Would any other man do what you have done? |
| 16659 | Would any other man hesitate when he saw such a pearl of a woman coming of her own accord? |
| 16659 | Would anybody put up a parasol to keep off the soothing autumn moonlight? |
| 16659 | Yet in the slander spoken in pure hate One thing you uttered worthy of his worth: How could the author of the uncreate Be born? |
| 16659 | Yet what can I do now? |
| 16659 | Yet, after all, what do these arguments amount to? |
| 16659 | You do n''t think I am afraid of the devils? |
| 16659 | Your Majesty commands? |
| 16659 | Your body, soft as siris- flowers, Engages passion''s utmost powers; How comes it that your heart is hard As stalks that siris- blossoms guard? |
| 16659 | she said at once, greeting him, and smilingly added:"What may be done for you?" |
| 11894 | ''Having heard the words of the gods, Agastya, the son of Mitra, and Varuna, said,Wherefore are ye come? |
| 11894 | ''Sakra said,O fair one, when thousands of thy son are( daily) oppressed, why dost thou grieve for one under infliction?" |
| 11894 | What for, O fortunate one, hath thy father bestowed thee on a person who is verging on death? 11894 Who is it that hath done wrong to the illustrious son of Bhrigu, old and ever engaged in austerities and of wrathful temper? |
| 11894 | Yudhishthira said,''How did the mighty sage, Yavakri, son of the ascetic Bharadwaja, acquire profoundity in the Vedas? 11894 Yudhishthira said,''How was the chastiser of the demon Paka, the god possessed of the six attributes, paralysed by Chyavana? |
| 11894 | Yudhishthira said,''How was the son of Kasyapa, Rishyasringa, born of a hind? 11894 Yudhishthira said,''O worshipful one, relate in particular how Vishnu, the lord of the celestials, raised up the earth sunk a hundred_ yojanas_? |
| 11894 | Yudhishthira said,''What was that occasion, O Saint? 11894 All this evil is her work, what need of doubts? 11894 And O mighty monarch, not finding her lord Naishadha, afflicted with grief and pain, she shrieked aloud in fright, saying,O lord? |
| 11894 | And by whose influence is it that the whole universe is in ferment? |
| 11894 | And distracted by gusts of the wind, they thought,''Are the heavens falling down; or the earth and the mountains being rent?'' |
| 11894 | And exclaiming repeatedly--_Where is he? |
| 11894 | And filled with anxiety, the beautious one thought within herself,"Oh, how shall I distinguish the celestials, and how discern the royal Nala?" |
| 11894 | And for what reason did the mighty saint conceive wrath towards Indra? |
| 11894 | And having received very great hospitality from them, he asked them, saying,"To whom, O cowherds, do ye belong?" |
| 11894 | And he asked himself,"Why is it that my daughter seemeth to be so ill now?" |
| 11894 | And he thought,"How shall I divide this garment, so that my beloved one may not perceive?" |
| 11894 | And he thought,"Is he Matali, the charioteer of the king of the celestials? |
| 11894 | And he went home and asked his mother saying,"Where is my father?" |
| 11894 | And how also did he perish? |
| 11894 | And how also did he regain it? |
| 11894 | And how also hast thou come to know this lady fallen into such a plight? |
| 11894 | And how beautiful was that princess Santa, pure in life, she who allured the heart of him when he had turned himself into a stag? |
| 11894 | And how did the agnates of( Bhagiratha furnish the same)? |
| 11894 | And how did those high souled ones bear themselves and derive their sustenance, and where did they put up? |
| 11894 | And how shall we be able to go this long way by help of these?" |
| 11894 | And how was he endowed with holiness, being the issue of a reprehensible sexual connexion? |
| 11894 | And how was the ocean refilled by the interference of Bhagiratha? |
| 11894 | And is it well with the beasts and birds of this asylum?" |
| 11894 | And reproaching the sons of Dhritarashtra, they said,''What should we do?'' |
| 11894 | And seeing those horses, the king said somewhat angrily,"What is this, that thou wishest to do? |
| 11894 | And she asked herself,"Was it a dream that I saw? |
| 11894 | And she said"O lord, why dost thou not rush towards me, now that I am seized, without anybody to protect me, by this serpent in these desert wilds? |
| 11894 | And some, O Bharata, felt pity for, and even addressed, her, saying,"O blessed one, who art thou, and whose? |
| 11894 | And the deities enquired of the great Indra,"What is to be sucked by this boy?" |
| 11894 | And then approaching these, he asked with folded hands,"Who are ye? |
| 11894 | And then he asked the valiant Akritavrana, who was a follower of Parasurama,''when will the revered Parasurama show himself to the religious men here? |
| 11894 | And those of the caravan that had escaped unhurt, met together, and asked one another,"Of what deed of ours is this the consequence? |
| 11894 | And what didst thou do while out of thy kingdom?'' |
| 11894 | And what doest thou in this wood? |
| 11894 | And what if I act not thus? |
| 11894 | And what must I bestow on thee? |
| 11894 | And what woman would not choose as her lord the virtuous and high- souled Mahendra, the lord of the celestials, the chastiser of Daityas and Danavas? |
| 11894 | And what, further, shall I have to do for you? |
| 11894 | And where is that asylum? |
| 11894 | And where is thy hermitage? |
| 11894 | And where, again, are those charming trees decked with fruits and flowers?" |
| 11894 | And who also is he that desireth me to be his messenger? |
| 11894 | And whose son art thou, and how hast thou come to do this work?" |
| 11894 | And why also hast thou come into the woods? |
| 11894 | And why hast thou come hither? |
| 11894 | And why should not this king rule over the entire world when he hath the two sons of Madri to espouse his cause? |
| 11894 | And, O Naishadha, how will it fare with thee when thou rememberest me? |
| 11894 | And, O beauteous one, how hast thou fallen into this extreme misery?" |
| 11894 | And, O descendant of the Vrishni race, while thou wert away, where didst thou dwell? |
| 11894 | And, O king, who is there that will weaken in battle Arjuna, who could not be weakened by Maheswara himself possessed of eight forms? |
| 11894 | And, O king, why dost thou not return an answer to thy beloved wife bewailing and bereft of sense, although thou lovest her, being loved in return? |
| 11894 | And, O sister, assisted by Rama and Krishna, we are invincible in battle by even the slayer himself of Vritra-- what are the sons of Dhritarashtra?''" |
| 11894 | And, O thou foremost of those acquainted with the Veda, what also did Arjuna do while dwelling there? |
| 11894 | And, O thou of mighty arms, he said,"Where is that wretch of the Vrishni race, Vasudeva, the evil- souled son of Vasudeva? |
| 11894 | Are those heroes, the five Pandavas living happily? |
| 11894 | Art thou a female_ Yaksha_, or a female_ Rakshasa_, or a celestial damsel? |
| 11894 | Art thou human? |
| 11894 | Asked by thee, what else can I counsel thee to do? |
| 11894 | Beholding that Arjuna that tiger among men worshipped by both the celestials and the Danavas so anxious, why, O king, dost thou not feel indignant? |
| 11894 | But I do not seek to renounce thee, wherefore, O timid one, dost thou dread this? |
| 11894 | But is there any ceremony, by celebrating which one may get a hundred sons? |
| 11894 | But what do Bhishma and Drona and Vidura think? |
| 11894 | But what stake hast thou now? |
| 11894 | But, O timid one, can any other woman, forsaking her loving and devoted husband, ever choose a second lord like thee? |
| 11894 | Can those who are familiar with his power, speak as thou dost? |
| 11894 | Clad in this severed piece of cloth, and lying like one distracted, how will the beauteous one of luminous smiles behave when she awaketh? |
| 11894 | Conscious of thy prowess, why didst thou not, O Bhima, say so before we entered into such an agreement? |
| 11894 | Do those bulls of the Kuru race intend to stay out their time? |
| 11894 | Dost thou not behold, O Brahmana, that vegetable juice floweth from the wound in my hand? |
| 11894 | Doth he come hither, despatched by Sakuni, to invite us again to a game of dice? |
| 11894 | Doth it not behove thee to deliver me? |
| 11894 | Doth the little- minded Sakuni intend to win again our weapons at dice? |
| 11894 | For what purpose, O Brahmana, doth one like us lead a domestic life, if he can not cherish and support those that follow him? |
| 11894 | For what then do Rishis and gods and Gandharvas and Rakshasas who are all independent of human conditions, cherish virtue with such affection? |
| 11894 | Free from thy curse, when thou wilt have regained thy mind and senses and wealth, how will it be with thee when thou thinkest of me? |
| 11894 | From what other cause, then hath this disaster come?" |
| 11894 | Hast thou ever seen me, O son of Suta, fly in fear from the field of battle like a coward? |
| 11894 | Hast thou ever seen or heard of any such before? |
| 11894 | Hast thou from despair been deprived of thy manliness? |
| 11894 | Hast thou seen king Nala, the slayer of foes and the beloved husband of Damayanti,--freed from fear and grief and obstacles? |
| 11894 | Hast thou, O foremost of mountains, with thy hundreds of peaks towering( into the sky) seen king Nala in this frightful forest? |
| 11894 | Hath any misfortune, ever so little, befallen the world of men or serpents?" |
| 11894 | Having entered into such an agreement in the presence of all good men, who dareth break it for the sake of a kingdom on earth? |
| 11894 | Having given my pledge, O blessed one, unto the gods in especial, how can I, having come on other''s mission, dare seek my own interest? |
| 11894 | Having hurled from the throne his in- offensive sons, will he be able to declare that he had treated them in a blameless way? |
| 11894 | Having left my brothers behind me in the forest, and without avenging myself on the foe, shall I incur the opprobrium for all ages of all the world?'' |
| 11894 | Having left the field of battle, what shall I say unto that mighty warrior when I meet him? |
| 11894 | Hiding thyself behind those shrubs, why dost thou not reply unto me? |
| 11894 | How also were the illustrious Sthanu and the chief of the celestials gratified by him? |
| 11894 | How also will these children, the brothers, Nakula and Sahadeva, equal unto a couple of young lions, both live in secret? |
| 11894 | How came it then, O chiefs of the immortals, that Raivya succeeded in killing me in that way?" |
| 11894 | How can I abandon my son for the sake of the sons of Pandu? |
| 11894 | How can I go there now in misery, augmenting thy grief?"'' |
| 11894 | How can I hope to enter them?" |
| 11894 | How can a person who is himself under the influence of love bring himself to speak thus unto a lady on behalf of others? |
| 11894 | How can my wicked sons live, whose eldest brother and preceptor walketh not in the path of righteousness? |
| 11894 | How can one know beforehand what the consequence will be? |
| 11894 | How can one like us indulge in it then? |
| 11894 | How can these horses of mine, weak in strength and breath, carry us? |
| 11894 | How can they then rightfully claim the juice of the Soma?"'' |
| 11894 | How canst thou then consider the forsaking of one, seeking for help, as virtuous? |
| 11894 | How could men know anything of it? |
| 11894 | How hast thou been born in the Kshatriya order? |
| 11894 | How hast thou settled all this in thy mind now? |
| 11894 | How hast thou then, having pledged thy word, deserted me asleep in the woods? |
| 11894 | How hath this lady of beautiful eyes been deprived of the company of her relatives and of her husband as well? |
| 11894 | How may I secure the goodwill of the citizens so that they may not destroy us to the roots? |
| 11894 | How shall I behold you all, that do not deserve to bear trouble, out of love for me painfully subsisting upon food procured by your own toil? |
| 11894 | How shall I live afflicted with grief on account of my husband?" |
| 11894 | How then can one like me indulge his anger which is so destructive of the world? |
| 11894 | How, O Krishna, can one like us abandon forgiveness, which is such, and in which are established_ Brahma_, and truth, and wisdom and the worlds? |
| 11894 | How, again, can I obtain the flowers soon?'' |
| 11894 | How, long- armed one, will Krishna pass over them?'' |
| 11894 | If a man were not himself the cause of his acts, how would all this be justified? |
| 11894 | If fools, of mind without light, transgress in every respect, how, O faultless one, can one like me transgress( like them)? |
| 11894 | If thou couldst do what thou hadst desired, could this calamity befall us? |
| 11894 | In Gaya''s great sacrifice, who is there today, amongst creatures, that still desireth to eat? |
| 11894 | In the evening oppressed with hunger and thirst and fatigue, underneath the trees, how wilt it take with thee when thou seest me not?" |
| 11894 | Is death the better for me now? |
| 11894 | Is everything well with the celestials? |
| 11894 | Is he Rudra himself, or some other god, or a Yaksha, or an Asura? |
| 11894 | Is he some god or Yaksha or Gandharva?" |
| 11894 | Is it all well with my hermitage? |
| 11894 | Is it not because he hath banished Kunti''s son from his kingdom? |
| 11894 | Is there a king on this earth who is more unfortunate than myself? |
| 11894 | Janamejaya said,"How did that bull among the Kurus, king Yudhishthira, for the sake of the Brahmanas adore the sun of wonderful appearance?" |
| 11894 | Kesini then asked,"Whence doth the third among you come, and whose( son) is he? |
| 11894 | Let me ask thee, who hath been to this place today?"''" |
| 11894 | Like a large tree in a well- watered region with spreading branches and flowers and leaves, or like Indra''s elephant, how will Jishnu live unknown? |
| 11894 | O Brahmana, what did Dhritarashtra of great wisdom say, when he heard of them?" |
| 11894 | O Brahmana, what is thy opinion on this?'' |
| 11894 | O Naishadha, O sinless one, who will soothe thee when thou art weary, and hungry, and fainting, O tiger among kings?" |
| 11894 | O Vidura, things having thus taken their course, what should we do now? |
| 11894 | O bull among Munis, what can be the reason of this thy present joy?'' |
| 11894 | O hath king Nala, the lord of the Nishadhas, come to this delightful asylum of your holy selves? |
| 11894 | O husband, dost thou desert me? |
| 11894 | O lord, why hast thou gone away, deserting me today in the forest? |
| 11894 | O slayer of Madhu, how can crookedness be in thee, devoid as thou art, O thou of the Dasarha race, of anger and envy and untruth and cruelty? |
| 11894 | O son of a Suta, hast thou been bewildered at the sight of a Salwa in that fierce encounter? |
| 11894 | O thou blest with length of days, whose spouse is she whom thus lamentest?" |
| 11894 | O thou conversant with all duties, tell me truly which of these is meritorious? |
| 11894 | Of frightful form and dreadful to behold, uttering loud cries as he came, the Rakshasa said,"O Hidimva, with whom dost thou converse? |
| 11894 | Of what deed, then, is this the consequence? |
| 11894 | Of what misdeed is this the consequence? |
| 11894 | Of what use is my life without that bull among men? |
| 11894 | Oh, when shall I see the sweet- speeched and large- hearted Vibhatsu so full of kindness and activity, return to us, having obtained all weapons? |
| 11894 | Or hast thou been disheartened, beholding the fight? |
| 11894 | Or should I desert my wife? |
| 11894 | Or, hath Salihotra versed in the science of horses taken this human shape so beautiful? |
| 11894 | Or, is Rituparna equally skilled with Nala so that the rattle of his car seemeth to be like that of Nala?" |
| 11894 | Or, is it king Nala the reducer of hostile towns that hath come here? |
| 11894 | Overwhelmed with the consequence of our pledge, and the time itself having passed, what is the use of thy addressing me these harsh words? |
| 11894 | Possessed of fame and wisdom, and lineage, and kindness, why hast thou be unkind? |
| 11894 | SECTION XIV"Yudhishthira said,''O Krishna, why wert thou absent( from the Anartta country)? |
| 11894 | Simple, gentle, liberal, modest, truthful, how, O king could thy mind be attracted to the vice of gambling? |
| 11894 | Suffering such wrongs at the hands of wicked and evil- doing foes of small strength, am I to burn in grief so long? |
| 11894 | Tell us now, O Brahmana, what was the food of the sons of Pandu, while they lived in the woods? |
| 11894 | Tell us, O blameless and blessed one, art thou the presiding deity of this forest, or of this mountain, or of this river?" |
| 11894 | The celestials said,"Where is that Being who with pleasure raiseth up the Earth? |
| 11894 | The gods, however, said,"O ruler of the Nishadhas, having promised first, saying,_ I will!_ why wilt thou not act accordingly now? |
| 11894 | The son of Pandu then, O king, asked Lomasa, saying,''O illustrious one, why had Rama''s energy and might been taken away? |
| 11894 | Then Indra, O Yudhishthira, went to him and addressed him saying,"Wherefore, O sage, hast thou become engaged in practising such rigid austerities?" |
| 11894 | Then calling Sudeva, O king, the queen- mother asked him,"Whose wife is this fair one, and whose daughter? |
| 11894 | Then king Yudhishthira, endued with great wisdom, addressed him saying,''Who art thou, and whose( son)? |
| 11894 | Then that best of Munis-- Agastya-- bursting out in laughter, said,"How can he come out? |
| 11894 | Then those two spake unto Raivya, saying,"What shall we do?" |
| 11894 | Thinkest thou otherwise?'' |
| 11894 | Thinking of this Bhimasena living in sorrow in the woods, doth not thy anger blaze up, even though it is time? |
| 11894 | Through whose power had she sunk an hundred_ yojanas_ below, and under what circumstances was exhibited this greatest exploit of the Supreme Being? |
| 11894 | Thus addressed by Sakra, Narada replied,"Listen, O Mahaval, why seest not thou the kings( now)? |
| 11894 | Thus addressed by the daughter of the king of the Vidarbhas, Nala answered her saying,"With the_ Lokapalas_ present, choosest thou a man? |
| 11894 | Was it of the wilderness, or was it the produce of cultivation?" |
| 11894 | Was not the enmity sufficient that was provoked by bringing Krishna into the assembly? |
| 11894 | What also dost thou think? |
| 11894 | What also, O Suta, will that lion among men, the grand- son of Sini( Satyaki), that great warrior, say on hearing that I have forsaken the fight? |
| 11894 | What boon do ye solicit from me?" |
| 11894 | What can I do now? |
| 11894 | What can be sadder than this that the virtuous Vibhatsu hath gone away at thy command, thinking of his many griefs? |
| 11894 | What damsel is there that would not choose king Nala endued with every virtue? |
| 11894 | What do we gain by living in the asylum of ascetics, thus deprived of virtue, pleasure, and profit? |
| 11894 | What else, O Brahmana, shall I do for thee?" |
| 11894 | What for, O Brahmana, wilt thou destroy thyself? |
| 11894 | What grief can be greater than this? |
| 11894 | What hath she said unto us all? |
| 11894 | What have I to do with any other sort of food? |
| 11894 | What is the matter? |
| 11894 | What is the name of this particular religious vow, which thou seemest to be observing now?" |
| 11894 | What is the occasion of this thy visit?" |
| 11894 | What other man on earth, except Phalguna, would strive to have a sight of these gods in their own forms? |
| 11894 | What peace can my heart know in not beholding thee such now? |
| 11894 | What peace, O king, can my heart know in not beholding all this now? |
| 11894 | What prosperity can he have who is an object of alarm to the world? |
| 11894 | What seekest thou in woods? |
| 11894 | What shall I say unto them? |
| 11894 | What shall I shoot now from my bow? |
| 11894 | What will that sinner, the chieftain of the earth, say to the departed forefathers of his race, when the wretch will meet them in the world to come? |
| 11894 | What will the elder brother of Kesava, the mighty- armed Baladeva, clad in blue and inebriate with wine, say, when he returneth? |
| 11894 | What woman would not choose as her lord Hutasana-- the chief of the celestials, who encompassing the earth swalloweth it? |
| 11894 | What woman would not choose him as her lord the dread of whose mace induceth all creatures to tread the path of virtue? |
| 11894 | When this pigeon hath in such a manner sought my protection, why dost thou not see that the highest merit is even in my not surrendering it unto thee? |
| 11894 | Where are all those ascetics? |
| 11894 | Where are my favourite guests?" |
| 11894 | Where be those Kshatriya heroes? |
| 11894 | Where dost thou go, O just monarch, leaving all these citizens and the inhabitants of the country, like a father leaving his sons? |
| 11894 | Where is he?_ the lord of Saubha rusheth to this place and that, desirous of encountering me in battle. |
| 11894 | Where is now Vandin? |
| 11894 | Where will ye go, leaving us in grief? |
| 11894 | Where, further, is that delightful river of sacred waters-- the resort of diverse kinds of fowls? |
| 11894 | Wherefore then being a child, dost thou talk like an old man?" |
| 11894 | Wherefore, O prince, has thou then stopped to perpetrate a deed not sanctioned by the ordinance? |
| 11894 | Wherefore, then, dost thou not reply unto me? |
| 11894 | Who are ye that have come near me in the shape of my food? |
| 11894 | Who can be more fortunate than he who hath been favoured with thy company, who hath Dhananjaya for a brother, and who is thought of by Vasava himself? |
| 11894 | Who can be more fortunate than he who is remembered even by the lord of the celestials? |
| 11894 | Who followed the steps of those princes plunged in excess of affliction? |
| 11894 | Who is he? |
| 11894 | Who is he? |
| 11894 | Who is there capable of doing such an act? |
| 11894 | Who is there that will defeat him?''" |
| 11894 | Who is there that would be able to go forward to the car of Samva, who is great in fight, when mounted on a car? |
| 11894 | Who is there that, desiring to live, will encounter these in battle, resembling angry lions of erect manes?'' |
| 11894 | Who is this person that swalloweth my arrows? |
| 11894 | Who then, speaking with impartiality, will ever counsel me to renounce my own body for the sake of others? |
| 11894 | Who, except the virtuous Nala, could go away, deserting in the woods, his dear and unoffending wife overcome with fatigue? |
| 11894 | Why art thou so sad today? |
| 11894 | Why did the king permit his foolish son Duryodhana to thus incense those mighty warriors, the sons of Pandu? |
| 11894 | Why do they bear the wrongs inflicted( on me) by the sons of Dhritarashtra of such contemptible strength? |
| 11894 | Why do ye fly? |
| 11894 | Why do you speak so now? |
| 11894 | Why dost thou go leaving the field of battle? |
| 11894 | Why dost thou overlook then this great evil that is about to overtake all? |
| 11894 | Why dost thou then, O king, forgive the wicked sons of Dhritarashtra? |
| 11894 | Why dost thou then, O tiger among men, act in respect of thy duties, like a huge snake that is destitute of motion? |
| 11894 | Why dost thou, for nothing, make this mighty endeavour?" |
| 11894 | Why dost thou, so delicate and brought up in luxury and possessed of the splendour of fire, dwell alone in such a solitary region?'' |
| 11894 | Why doth not thy anger blaze up, O king, it sight of both Nakula and Sahadeva overwhelmed with grief, though so undeserving of distress? |
| 11894 | Why doth not thy wrath blaze up at sight of that Arjuna in exile, who, on a single car, hath vanquished celestials and men and serpents? |
| 11894 | Why doth thy sinful son of wicked heart, ever inflamed with ire, seek to slay the sons of Pandu for the sake of their kingdom? |
| 11894 | Why is it that thou alone smilest, as if in glee, in the presence of these?'' |
| 11894 | Why should I disregard God, the lord of all creatures? |
| 11894 | Why should I not then, choose Arjuna for a lover? |
| 11894 | Why shouldst thou and the other celestials have a right to the distilled Soma juice, and not they? |
| 11894 | Why then, good as thou art and acquainted with every duty, hast thou neglected both thy duties? |
| 11894 | Why was he born as_ Ashtavakra_( crooked in eight parts in his body)?'' |
| 11894 | Why, O king, dost thou pardon the foe, O Yudhishthira, at sight of Madri''s son, the handsome and brave Sahadeva in exile? |
| 11894 | Why, O king, doth not thy wrath blaze up at sight of Nakula, in exile, who so fair and able- bodied and young, is the foremost of all swordsmen? |
| 11894 | Why, again, didst thou shoot the boar that was first aimed at by me? |
| 11894 | Will the brotherly affection of the Kauravas ever be impaired?'' |
| 11894 | Without first vanquishing in battle all those foremost of men, unaided as thou art, how canst thou slay Duryodhana? |
| 11894 | Yet why, O Lomasa, do they prosper in this world?'' |
| 11894 | being grilled in this hell?" |
| 11894 | did he raise the celestial physicians to the rank of the drinkers of Soma? |
| 11894 | dost thou not recognise him as an ancient Rishi of the highest merit? |
| 11894 | thou of the splendour of gold, art thou not afraid of this terrible forest? |
| 11894 | what dost thou desire of me? |
| 11894 | what was the extent of power and strength possessed by king Somaka? |
| 11894 | wherefore dost thou not answer me? |
| 11894 | why dost thou weep? |
| 36301 | ''But pray inform me, my lord and master, when and how I have given you any cause of complaint? 36301 ''But, my child,''said the king,''if by chance some one should present himself, and reply to your questions?'' |
| 36301 | ''What has happened?'' 36301 ''What is the matter, my dear husband? |
| 36301 | ''What is the matter? 36301 ''_ Do_ I love him?'' |
| 36301 | Ah, my lord,said he,"where are we, and to what state am I reduced?" |
| 36301 | Ah,cried he,"weak worms, what have you presumed to do? |
| 36301 | And pray,I asked in reply,"what are you doing at Candahar, and why have you left the court of Persia? |
| 36301 | And the others,replied Hadgi- Achmet;"couldst not thou, if necessary, dispose of them, and buy others with the price?" |
| 36301 | And thou, woman,said the dey,"dost thou still maintain that thy husband leaves thee in want of nourishment?" |
| 36301 | And who lives,I asked,"in the palace at the end of the plain?" |
| 36301 | Are there not, then, many honest men who are no richer than myself? |
| 36301 | Art thou poor? |
| 36301 | But tell me,returned Lin- pao,"why do n''t you still wear a white head- dress? |
| 36301 | But thou,rejoined Selim,"if thou hadst aught to give away, what wouldst thou do?" |
| 36301 | But, madam,I replied,"why give way to such gloomy presentiments at the very time when your presence brings me such delight?" |
| 36301 | But,resumed king Bahaman,"night is coming on, and still the king of the genii does not appear; can he have forsaken us?" |
| 36301 | By what means,he said,"can any person, however ingenious and daring, enter this fortress? |
| 36301 | Can any man on earth do this? |
| 36301 | Can she wish to be an eye- witness of my death, and does she desire to have me assassinated before the eyes of her father? 36301 Can these things be removed?" |
| 36301 | Can you propose to us that we should live at the expense of your liberty? 36301 Do they not already kill each other by sea and by land?" |
| 36301 | Do what you like,replied the king;"but what answer shall we send the caliph?" |
| 36301 | Do you know,he said,"that a subject who has the audacity to lie to his master merits death?" |
| 36301 | Do you mean to say that all men have some secret anxiety preying on their minds, because you appear in that state? 36301 Do you see all these bones?" |
| 36301 | Does that prove that it would be wrong to do so? |
| 36301 | Dost thou require much? |
| 36301 | Father,said Haroun,"is it true that there is in this city a young man called Aboulcassem, who surpasses even kings in magnificence and generosity?" |
| 36301 | From what country do you come? |
| 36301 | Has any misfortune happened to you? |
| 36301 | Has your life returned to you? |
| 36301 | Have you also a place where I can put my horse? |
| 36301 | Have you ever heard of this unfortunate El Kattab before? |
| 36301 | How is it,replied Khalaf,"that she is such a source of grief to him?" |
| 36301 | How is it,said the prince, raising him, and placing him on a sofa,"that you are still alive? |
| 36301 | How much do you ask? |
| 36301 | I asked you,said Tourandocte,"what tree is that whose leaves are white on one side and black on the other?" |
| 36301 | I thought that no plant was ever to be found on those mountain tops covered with perpetual snow and frost? |
| 36301 | I will suppose that I may enjoy the longest of lives, a hundred years for example, thinkest thou I shall live yet longer? |
| 36301 | I? 36301 If I am not more successful than this,"thought he,"how am I to support my father and mother?" |
| 36301 | If I made the fortune of my son, instead of that of my friend,said he at length to himself,"should I be guilty? |
| 36301 | In this wall? |
| 36301 | Is it then true,exclaimed the caliph,"that the happiness of all is a dream? |
| 36301 | Is not your name Aswad? |
| 36301 | Is this young prince mad,they whispered one to another,"to risk the loss of that for which he perilled his life? |
| 36301 | It is something, nevertheless,replied Selim,"and wilt thou tell me what is necessary to be done, in order to add fifty years to one''s existence?" |
| 36301 | It may be; but will it be good in practice? 36301 Merciful Heaven,"cried Khalaf, when he recovered from his stupefaction,"did I hear aright? |
| 36301 | Must I believe,said he,"what I have just heard? |
| 36301 | My dear friend,said he,"how old is your son?" |
| 36301 | My father,cried he,"is it so indeed? |
| 36301 | My lord,replied Tourandocte,"why do you think that I shall not be able to reply to the question of this prince? |
| 36301 | My lord,said she,"what is it you propose to your daughter? |
| 36301 | My lord,said she,"whence this violent transport which agitates you, and what do those words mean which you have just spoken?" |
| 36301 | My thought is a good one then? |
| 36301 | Of what use is our flight? |
| 36301 | Of what use will thy doubloons be to thee when thou art dead? 36301 On what dost thou muse?" |
| 36301 | Poor creature,said Medjeddin,"what is the matter? |
| 36301 | Prince,I said to him,"could you possibly think that I would refuse to help you in the embarrassing situation in which you were placed on my account? |
| 36301 | Prince,said he,"have you reflected upon the words which have just escaped your lips?" |
| 36301 | Prince,said he,"why did you not come at once to me? |
| 36301 | The prince Mesoud? |
| 36301 | Then thou desirest not to prolong thy days upon the earth? 36301 Then thou wilt not consent to give me the third of what I know to be here, hidden though it may be?" |
| 36301 | Then why not diminish thy transactions, and live in peace? |
| 36301 | Thou wouldst change the order of things, the whole course of nature? |
| 36301 | Well then,said Tourandocte,"tell me what creature is that which belongs to every land, is a friend to the whole world, and will not brook an equal?" |
| 36301 | Well, and the result? |
| 36301 | Well, my daughter,he said,"have you seen the treasure?" |
| 36301 | Well, my lord,said Zemroude,"do you think the cadi has much reason to be satisfied with his work? |
| 36301 | Well, prince,began Altoun- Khan,"am I to rejoice or grieve at your presence here to- day? |
| 36301 | Well,he continued,"since you knew that, why have you committed the greatest of all crimes?" |
| 36301 | Well,said Selim,"what has befallen thee? |
| 36301 | Well,said the Jew,"what sayest thou? |
| 36301 | Well,said the monarch,"have you done what I commanded you?" |
| 36301 | What ails you, madam? |
| 36301 | What am I about to do? |
| 36301 | What can be the design of the princess? |
| 36301 | What can be the reason, my angel,said he,"that your father prevents your marrying? |
| 36301 | What crime have I committed? |
| 36301 | What do you say, my son? |
| 36301 | What do you say, my son? |
| 36301 | What have you done, my lord? |
| 36301 | What is it, madam? |
| 36301 | What is it? 36301 What is that mother,"resumed the princess,"who, after having brought her children into the world, devours them when they are grown up?" |
| 36301 | What is the matter, my lord? |
| 36301 | What man,said he,"is entirely master over his own thoughts? |
| 36301 | What matters it,I said,"whether I die of thirst or of poison?" |
| 36301 | What obligations am I not under to you? |
| 36301 | What on earth is all this to end in? |
| 36301 | What profits it to meditate so deeply upon a thing which all the reflections of man can not change? |
| 36301 | What sayest thou? |
| 36301 | What sayst thou? |
| 36301 | What was his name? |
| 36301 | What wilt thou do to effect my cure? |
| 36301 | What, now, fakir,asked I,"do you view my happy condition with chagrin? |
| 36301 | What,exclaimed Medjeddin in astonishment,"in his pocket!--how can that be?" |
| 36301 | What,he asked,"was the colour of the girdle which contained your money, and of what material was it made?" |
| 36301 | Who is the man of whom you make this complaint? |
| 36301 | Why am I still in the world? |
| 36301 | Why have you treated my nightingale thus? 36301 Why should you be afraid to tell them? |
| 36301 | Why then,said the vizir,"did you pretend not to know him at Ormus?" |
| 36301 | Why,asked Bahaman, when his enemy was brought before him,"why have you advanced into my dominions against all right and reason? |
| 36301 | Will I tell thee? |
| 36301 | With whom dost thou decree that Ormed shall remain? 36301 Wretch,"said the cadi,"what dost thou take me for? |
| 36301 | You are in a great hurry,she remarked;"what can it be that obliges you to walk so fast?" |
| 36301 | ''Am I just made a bridegroom, clothed in silk, wearing a shawl and a dagger set with diamonds, and am I to go and shut the door? |
| 36301 | ''Do you ask whether the ant beneath your feet has a right to complain? |
| 36301 | ''What signifies it, whether we die in a stable or on a throne? |
| 36301 | A neighbour, who heard me calling out in an agony of despair, opened her door, and said to me,"Hassan Abdallah, is that you? |
| 36301 | And do you seriously think of carrying it into effect?" |
| 36301 | And what does he give me in return? |
| 36301 | And why? |
| 36301 | Are they not creditable to you?" |
| 36301 | Are we the first princes whom the rod of justice has struck? |
| 36301 | Are we to become the object of the inquiries and suspicions of the police?" |
| 36301 | Are you a beggar, and do you need any gift? |
| 36301 | Are you now in a fit state to resist all attempts to make you disclose your secret? |
| 36301 | Are you strong enough to support the highest joy that your heart can feel or conceive?" |
| 36301 | Art thou content?" |
| 36301 | As I concealed the clothes, he said to me,"My brother, what have you got there hid under your cloak?" |
| 36301 | Aswad, where was your discretion? |
| 36301 | At length the lady Wang went to the door, and standing behind it without opening it, asked,"Who is knocking there, and making such a disturbance?" |
| 36301 | At these words Firouzshah appeared thunderstruck, and then addressing Zelica, he inquired,"Who then is the prince who is your father?" |
| 36301 | At these words Yang at first appeared confused, and changed colour; then, assuming a more confident expression,"What are you thinking of?" |
| 36301 | Besides, how do you know that I shall not be able to reply to her questions? |
| 36301 | But I ask you, princess, ought I thus to steal away from Altoun- Khan? |
| 36301 | But come, hast thou decided? |
| 36301 | But dost thou not see that it is wise to be at peace with thy brother, and that to obtain this peace there is no sacrifice too great? |
| 36301 | But has he got a son? |
| 36301 | But how is a private individual able to make such presents? |
| 36301 | But in what did his riches consist? |
| 36301 | But speak, what is the cause of your affliction?" |
| 36301 | But tell me how is it? |
| 36301 | But what could I do in my cage? |
| 36301 | But what do I say? |
| 36301 | But what had become of the inhabitants? |
| 36301 | But what profit would this be to me?" |
| 36301 | But who can say or know what is really a good or an evil? |
| 36301 | But who shall describe her ecstasies of joy when her son was presented to her? |
| 36301 | But why wish to purchase me? |
| 36301 | By what good luck do I find you here?" |
| 36301 | By what scourge had they been cut off, or what reason had induced them to quit so beautiful a city? |
| 36301 | Can I refuse to obey it?" |
| 36301 | Can he have changed his mind, and issued the order for my death?" |
| 36301 | Can she carry her cruelty thus far? |
| 36301 | Can the death of the princess Zelica have driven you away as it did me?" |
| 36301 | Can the king be an accomplice in the deed? |
| 36301 | Can you be sure that I shall not be able to answer the questions that may be put to me? |
| 36301 | Can you tell me where the sheik Hassan Abdallah, the son of El- Achaar, resides in the city?" |
| 36301 | Can you tell me why this street is so quiet, as though every inhabitant were dead?" |
| 36301 | Conducting me into a very elegant apartment, he asked me,"What is your name?" |
| 36301 | Do you call it_ possessing_ a treasure if it must not be touched? |
| 36301 | Do you know the peril to which you may expose her? |
| 36301 | Do you love Aswad sufficiently to make so great a sacrifice?'' |
| 36301 | Do you really believe this to be the truth?" |
| 36301 | Do you take me for a dishonest man, or imagine that my purse is empty?" |
| 36301 | Do you think I shall soon spend all this?" |
| 36301 | Do you think me so unjust, that I shall take it from you?" |
| 36301 | Do you think to impose upon me? |
| 36301 | Do you wish to see us die with hunger?" |
| 36301 | Does he imagine he can propose a question that will be too difficult for Tourandocte to solve? |
| 36301 | Does it depend upon men themselves to be happy or unhappy? |
| 36301 | Dost thou dare thus to treat me who have it in my power to revenge myself on my enemies; me who, when I please, can put the like of thee in fetters? |
| 36301 | Exerting all her ingenuity, she next asked,"What tree is that whose leaves are white on one side and black on the other?" |
| 36301 | Hadgi- Achmet turned to the other brother:"Farzan, canst thou not yield to thy brother the amulet he wishes to possess?" |
| 36301 | Hadgi- Achmet, addressing himself to Chamyl, said,"In what does thy fortune consist?" |
| 36301 | Haroun was offended at this, and said to himself,"What does all this mean? |
| 36301 | Hast thou not children, and are not children much dearer than a friend?" |
| 36301 | Have I said or done any thing to cause your tears to flow? |
| 36301 | He asked her a thousand questions; what were the customs of the inhabitants of the city? |
| 36301 | He is now at hand: does your majesty wish him to be introduced to your presence?" |
| 36301 | He then proceeded to relate to him the events of his journey, and ended by asking,"Giafar, what shall I do? |
| 36301 | Here are the twenty täels that my friend Tchin has given me; can I do better than employ them towards the maintenance of some virtuous bonzes? |
| 36301 | How can I be sufficiently grateful for so many favours? |
| 36301 | How could she conceive so base a project?" |
| 36301 | How long ago was it inhabited? |
| 36301 | How much dost thou demand for thy reward?" |
| 36301 | How ought I to distribute the half of my large fortune?" |
| 36301 | How then can I surpass him in generosity?" |
| 36301 | I am also informed that you keep concealed at home a daughter of an age to marry; is that true?" |
| 36301 | I am suddenly become very rich, as thou knowest, and I have no son to inherit my wealth; is it not too great for a single solitary man? |
| 36301 | I could explain to you all these mysteries; but to what purpose? |
| 36301 | I have not wherewith to continue my journey to that town, will you be so charitable as to lend me three täels? |
| 36301 | I said, weeping,"is this indeed a thing so easy for me? |
| 36301 | I thought; can this be some new misfortune that has befallen me? |
| 36301 | I told you a thousand times that she would not suit you; you would not believe-- whose fault is it?" |
| 36301 | If God has the power to pluck off crowns, has He not also the power to restore them? |
| 36301 | If I cure thee what will be my profit? |
| 36301 | If there were any intention of making you marry again, do you think there would be any difficulty? |
| 36301 | If this business is hurried on, how shall I be able to inform them of it? |
| 36301 | If thou discoverest another still more marvellous, thou wilt give it me, at least for my own use, wilt thou not?" |
| 36301 | If you did not wish him to live, why did you restore him to life?" |
| 36301 | In a word, is he a man to whose interests I could worthily attach myself?" |
| 36301 | In what way dost thou consider it would be most desirable to employ this wealth?" |
| 36301 | Is he afraid I want him to make me a present? |
| 36301 | Is he generous, and do you think that he would pay any regard to a young stranger, who might offer to serve him against his enemies? |
| 36301 | Is it not Allah that spins the thread of our destiny? |
| 36301 | Is it not also true that the king himself used all his endeavours to dissuade you from your rash resolution?" |
| 36301 | Is it not in hopes of making them more happy that I am about to expose my life? |
| 36301 | Is it possible that it is you I have met here?" |
| 36301 | Is it possible that the princess of China could be guilty of such an atrocious attempt? |
| 36301 | Is it the secret of making gold?" |
| 36301 | Is it thus that you show the submission you owe to the decrees of Heaven? |
| 36301 | Is not a son nearer and dearer than all the friends in the world? |
| 36301 | Is not this unexpected good fortune, a blessing from Heaven? |
| 36301 | Is the question the prince has proposed so difficult, that you can not answer it? |
| 36301 | Is your majesty quite contented?" |
| 36301 | It is of no use to say to a poor man like me,''To whom wouldst thou give thy money?'' |
| 36301 | May I be so bold in return to inquire to whom I have the honour of speaking?" |
| 36301 | Merciful Heaven, is it the lot of all those who look upon this portrait to become enamoured of this inhuman princess? |
| 36301 | My dear bird, my little husband, why art thou taken from, me so soon? |
| 36301 | Nevertheless, I desire not to sell the powder, but may I bestow it, and at once, upon one or two men whom I esteem highly?" |
| 36301 | Of what account are fifty years added to sixty or eighty, soon to be over for me? |
| 36301 | Of what avail is it that these walls are built of precious stones? |
| 36301 | Of what benefit would money got by such means be to me?" |
| 36301 | Of what have I been guilty?'' |
| 36301 | On my way to the palace I said to myself,"Firouzshah has no doubt discovered my correspondence with Zelica; but how can he have learned it?" |
| 36301 | On the sixteenth day my guest, after chatting on indifferent matters, said to me,"Hassan, would you like to sell yourself to me?" |
| 36301 | Ought you to have feared an ungracious reception? |
| 36301 | Possessed of gold, what can we not enjoy? |
| 36301 | Pray what are the contents of this chest?" |
| 36301 | Regrettest thou what has been taken from thy shop? |
| 36301 | Shall I succeed in my purpose? |
| 36301 | Since this prince has answered your questions satisfactorily, I ask all this assembly if it is not right that you should become his wife?" |
| 36301 | Speak, and reply exactly and truly to my questions:--When you came to Candahar, were you not told that I was a severe punisher of criminals?" |
| 36301 | Tchin thought to himself,"Where should I find a man of such probity as Lin- in? |
| 36301 | The book of wisdom is now useless; what man is there who does not think himself wise?" |
| 36301 | The khan then said to him,"Thou appearest to be a stranger amongst us; where wast thou born, and what is thy profession?" |
| 36301 | The king then said,"Who are you? |
| 36301 | The officer, at these words, regarding him with astonishment, said to him,"Prince, do you know that you come to seek death? |
| 36301 | Then he said,"Mahmoud, dost thou declare that thou affordest sufficient nourishment to thy wife?" |
| 36301 | There, near the Indies, is a high mountain, Mount Himalaya-- dost thou not know it?" |
| 36301 | Thy wife and thy sons, are they ill? |
| 36301 | To live fifty years longer than usual, what is that?" |
| 36301 | We are too fortunate not to be molested by these monsters; why should we go in search of them?" |
| 36301 | What alarm can all the princes of the world, to say nothing of Cacem, occasion to the father- in- law of the king of the genii? |
| 36301 | What am I to think? |
| 36301 | What are you come to tell me?'' |
| 36301 | What can detain her so long at her father''s? |
| 36301 | What can have happened? |
| 36301 | What can his motive be?" |
| 36301 | What certainty have you that I shall perish? |
| 36301 | What clothes are these you appear in? |
| 36301 | What could he intend to do? |
| 36301 | What good would that do? |
| 36301 | What has happened? |
| 36301 | What has taken place?'' |
| 36301 | What have I done to deserve such punishment from Heaven?" |
| 36301 | What injury shall I do him by taking the chandelier? |
| 36301 | What is the good of throwing oneself into the water before the ship is really going to pieces?" |
| 36301 | What is your determination?" |
| 36301 | What king could have possessed such riches? |
| 36301 | What man would not be terrified at the condition without which he can not hope to obtain her? |
| 36301 | What precious stones do you speak of that we have belonging to you?" |
| 36301 | What prince would be mad enough to face such danger?'' |
| 36301 | What provocation have I given you for making war against me?" |
| 36301 | What shall I write to the caliph?" |
| 36301 | What tongue can express to you the gratitude I feel for so great an honour? |
| 36301 | What will be his grief when he knows that he has conferred such a benefit upon his enemy? |
| 36301 | What would he think of me? |
| 36301 | When I related the strange proposal of my guest, my mother said,"What can this man want to do with you?" |
| 36301 | When she confesses to you that you are dear to her, how will you receive such a glorious avowal? |
| 36301 | When the Arab saw me, he said,"Is this what you promised me? |
| 36301 | When they arrived, he said to them,"What were you disputing about, my friends, when I passed you?" |
| 36301 | Where would it be possible for her to meet with one more perfectly worthy of her?" |
| 36301 | Who are you who can promise this?" |
| 36301 | Who are you?" |
| 36301 | Why do you not show me your treasure? |
| 36301 | Why give way to this transport of fury? |
| 36301 | Why have you risked the danger of losing the object of your love?" |
| 36301 | Why have you torn me away from my poor but peaceful home?" |
| 36301 | Why is it that he is now the fortunate owner of this treasure of treasures? |
| 36301 | Why not therefore endeavour to prolong thine own? |
| 36301 | Why persevere in the pursuit of an inhuman creature whom thou wilt never be able to obtain? |
| 36301 | Why was it ordained that you should come to lodge in my house? |
| 36301 | Why will you not do it yourself? |
| 36301 | Why, have I often asked myself, should our lives be shorter than those of an oak of the forests, of a serpent, or even of a vulture?" |
| 36301 | Will you become one of our fraternity? |
| 36301 | Will your love for me hold out against the honour of having the affections of the first princess in the world?" |
| 36301 | Wilt thou enter into partnership with me?" |
| 36301 | Would it not be better to keep this treasure for thyself and for thy sons? |
| 36301 | Would they not kill each other for want of room?" |
| 36301 | added he,"what will be thy grief when thou shalt be told of the extraordinary death of thy son? |
| 36301 | and who shall dare to carry thee the news?" |
| 36301 | are you ill?" |
| 36301 | art thou sick, or dost thou return to me perishing of hunger?" |
| 36301 | asked I;"of what am I accused?" |
| 36301 | charming Tourandocte,"hereupon cried the prince of the Nagäis,"is it possible that you entertain such favourable sentiments towards me? |
| 36301 | cried he;"ought I to disclose to my eyes so dangerous an object? |
| 36301 | cried she,"by what good fortune did you recover our dear child, whom I thought we had lost for ever?" |
| 36301 | cried the physician of Tunis,"is not life preferable to all the riches in the world? |
| 36301 | cruel daughter of the best of kings, is it thus that you abuse the gifts with which Heaven has endowed you? |
| 36301 | eagerly asked the widow,"what enterprise are you so rashly planning? |
| 36301 | exclaimed the Arab;"are you not Hassan Abdallah, and can you send away your guest by concealing your name?" |
| 36301 | exclaimed the cadi,"is it possible to marry such a monster as that?" |
| 36301 | exclaimed the lady,"whither does your love carry you? |
| 36301 | have I lied to thee, or deceived myself? |
| 36301 | have you become so much altered in the course of so few years? |
| 36301 | have you discovered any thing?'' |
| 36301 | have you found any thing? |
| 36301 | have you left off mourning?" |
| 36301 | have you then killed and robbed some one? |
| 36301 | he cried,"what are you doing? |
| 36301 | he replied, eyeing them with a threatening aspect,"what will you say, when I show you a certificate from the cadi of Ormus, proving the contrary?" |
| 36301 | he said,"is it to you I owe my life?" |
| 36301 | how can I escape his snares? |
| 36301 | how couldst thou confer on this barbarous princess so much beauty, or why adorn so inhuman a soul with so many charms?" |
| 36301 | how did you learn to break my charm in this manner? |
| 36301 | how has the time passed with you since our last interview?" |
| 36301 | how is it that you have told what I wished to conceal, if it were possible, even from myself? |
| 36301 | how many families Pekin was said to contain? |
| 36301 | how was it possible for him to get into my room? |
| 36301 | is not this street lonely enough, that you can not hold your discourse aloud? |
| 36301 | is that you, my eldest brother? |
| 36301 | must I confess it, cruel though the princess of China be, I could never find in my foolish heart to hate her? |
| 36301 | my dear child,"said he, patronizingly,"of what service can I be to you?" |
| 36301 | oh, king of the world, was it you who honoured your slave''s house?" |
| 36301 | resumed Tchin;"where else should I find such honesty and generosity?" |
| 36301 | said Aboulcassem,"is it possible so unworthy and cruel a father possesses such a daughter?" |
| 36301 | said I to myself;"and by whose orders can it be that this eunuch treats me in such a manner?" |
| 36301 | said I,"what is the nature of the secret? |
| 36301 | said Yousouf,"art thou mad? |
| 36301 | said he to himself,"how is this, that the cadi, my greatest enemy, is become so civil to me to- day? |
| 36301 | said he,"if I die, what will become of my father and mother?" |
| 36301 | said he,"what are you doing? |
| 36301 | said she;"what causes you to be thus agitated?" |
| 36301 | said the young man much surprised;"why this sudden grief? |
| 36301 | shall I receive from him such an act of kindness, and not be able to repay him? |
| 36301 | she asked,"and what fancies have you got into your head? |
| 36301 | she exclaimed,"what is the meaning of this change, and what has that man been saying to you?" |
| 36301 | she exclaimed;''am I, young, robed in a satin dress, with lace and precious stones, am I to go and shut the court- yard door? |
| 36301 | she said,"do you still bring back this basket? |
| 36301 | that this lattice is of fine gold, that this cage is of gold, and hangs on a golden chain? |
| 36301 | that what is joy to one, may be the cause of grief to another? |
| 36301 | what am I, and what have I done to deserve the honour of being your father- in- law?" |
| 36301 | what has Aswad done more than other men to deserve such an accumulation of good fortune?" |
| 36301 | what sayst thou?" |
| 36301 | what will become of us? |
| 36301 | where is your sister- in- law?" |
| 36301 | where? |
| 36301 | who are you, and where do you come from? |
| 36301 | who bid you destroy the cage?" |
| 36301 | who can foresee the consequences of things? |
| 36301 | why did I speak of Tourandocte? |
| 36301 | why had my master not my eyes when he took thee into his hands? |
| 36301 | why will they not leave me to live in peace without making attempts on my liberty? |
| 36301 | with his adopted or with his real father?" |
| 36301 | with the genius and penetration you possess, can you not accomplish it?" |
| 36301 | you say the enchanter brings his hateful son with him-- why, then, have I never seen him?" |
| 12333 | ''And one among them said,Of the one who is to go with thee, who will go and who will fall down?" |
| 12333 | ''Skanda replied,What sort of happiness dost thou wish to enjoy?" |
| 12333 | For what reason? |
| 12333 | Hearing these words, Karna said,''Who art thou that tellest me so, showing me such kindness? 12333 Markandeya continued,''Then Sakra having expressed a wish to say something to Skanda, the latter enquired,"What is it?" |
| 12333 | The serpent said,''O Yudhishthira, say-- Who is a_ Brahmana_ and what should be known? 12333 Yudhishthira enquired,''Which, O snake, is the higher of the two, truth or alms- giving? |
| 12333 | Yudhishthira said,''By what means do Brahmanas, who accept gifts from all the four orders, save others as well as themselves? |
| 12333 | Yudhishthira said,''In what race was Rama born and what was the measure of his might and prowess? 12333 Yudhishthira said,''O divine one, why wast thou cursed by the high- souled Agastya? |
| 12333 | Yudhishthira said,''O holy one, O thou possessed of the wealth of asceticism, who was this_ Daitya_ of great energy? 12333 Yudhishthira said,''O thou of great wisdom, what purification is there by which a Brahmana may always keep himself pure? |
| 12333 | ''Is this forest under some malign influence? |
| 12333 | ''What shall I do? |
| 12333 | ''[ 68] The Yaksha asked,''By what doth one become learned? |
| 12333 | ''[ 69] The Yaksha asked,''What constituteth the divinity of the Brahmanas? |
| 12333 | ''[ 70] The Yaksha asked,''What is of the foremost value to those that cultivate? |
| 12333 | ''[ 72] The Yaksha asked,--''What is that which sojourneth alone? |
| 12333 | A mighty warrior as he is and accomplished in arms now, will he not be able to slay you all? |
| 12333 | Alas, why lie ye insensible on the earth, with your bodies unwounded, ye unvanquished ones, and with your vows untouched?'' |
| 12333 | Amongst us three, who shall fall down first?" |
| 12333 | And Arjuna asked, saying,''How is Subhadra, and her son Abhimanyu?'' |
| 12333 | And I asked myself,"How doth this boy alone sit here when the world itself hath been destroyed?" |
| 12333 | And Narada then said,"Whither had this thy daughter gone? |
| 12333 | And O Pritha''s son, dost thou not turn thy inclination unto sinful acts? |
| 12333 | And Rama skilled in speech, asked him, saying,"Who art thou? |
| 12333 | And Rama then taking up his bow and quiver, addressed those monkeys, saying,"Have you been successful? |
| 12333 | And afflicted with grief, they began to lament in piteous accents, saying,"Alas, O son, alas, O chaste daughter- in- law, where are you?" |
| 12333 | And after the_ Rishi_ had said so, of the two that remained, one asked,"Who amongst us two shall fall down?" |
| 12333 | And after those rites were ended, a strange goddess, O king, with mouth wide open, arose( from the sacrificial fire), saying,''What am I to do?'' |
| 12333 | And are pious men gratified, being honoured by thee? |
| 12333 | And art thou intent upon virtue? |
| 12333 | And as he was rushing( towards the water), he heard these words from the sky,''Why dost thou approach this water? |
| 12333 | And at this Indradyumna became a horse and carried me to where that owl lived and the king asked the owl, saying,"Dost thou know me?" |
| 12333 | And by what means? |
| 12333 | And can a man that is troubled with fear have peace, and how can one that hath no peace have happiness? |
| 12333 | And did they meet with Vaisravana? |
| 12333 | And dismissing his ministers, he enquired of her in private, saying,"Blessed sister, who hath made thee so, forgetting and disregarding me? |
| 12333 | And dost thou go along the way taken by the royal sages? |
| 12333 | And dost thou, O best of the Kurus, properly know how to perform meritorious acts, and to eschew wicked deeds? |
| 12333 | And endued as I am with the strength of ten thousand elephants, how hast thou been able to overpower me? |
| 12333 | And even dwelling in the woods, dost thou follow virtue alone? |
| 12333 | And for what doth one fail to go to heaven?'' |
| 12333 | And for what to the king?'' |
| 12333 | And for what, a sacrifice?'' |
| 12333 | And from whom did they hear this welcome news? |
| 12333 | And he asked me, saying,"O son of Kunti, whither wilt thou go?" |
| 12333 | And he came unto me and asked,"Dost thou know me?" |
| 12333 | And he said with joined hands,"Alas, do I not know this one? |
| 12333 | And how can I, who am desirous of the welfare of all creatures, commit an unrighteous act? |
| 12333 | And how has thou obtained the weapons, and how also hast thou gratified the lord of the celestials? |
| 12333 | And how has thou obtained the weapons? |
| 12333 | And how hast thou beheld the divine_ Sakra_, and the wielder of_ Pinaka_? |
| 12333 | And how should I behave so that I may not fall away from the duties of my order?'' |
| 12333 | And in what manner didst thou worship( them)? |
| 12333 | And in whom is he established?'' |
| 12333 | And inflamed with desire, he said to the prince named Kotika,''Whose is this lady of faultless form? |
| 12333 | And quickly advancing towards Lakshmana while reproving him still, Rama asked him,"O Lakshmana, is the princess of Videha still alive? |
| 12333 | And seeing me, they asked,"O Phalguna, what art thou going to do?" |
| 12333 | And she said to herself,''Of what nature are those_ mantras_ that have been bestowed on me by that high- souled one? |
| 12333 | And that crane was asked by us,"Dost thou know the king Indradyumna?" |
| 12333 | And the Brahmana was on the point of cursing the king, when the latter said,"O Brahmana, dost thou curse him that doth not give thee what thou askest? |
| 12333 | And the crane was asked by us,"Is there any one who is older than thou?" |
| 12333 | And the enquirer asked,"For what cause?" |
| 12333 | And the enquirer asked,"For what reason?" |
| 12333 | And the king said unto himself again and again,''Why is it that the two sons of Madri are delaying? |
| 12333 | And the regenerate_ Rishi_ said to them,"How hath a Brahmana come to be killed by you, and say where may be he? |
| 12333 | And the royal sage Indradyumna thereupon asked the owl,"Is there any one who is older than thou?" |
| 12333 | And then, O thou conqueror of hostile cities, the_ Muni_ Tarkshya, addressed them, saying,"Ye princes, can this be the Brahmana of your killing? |
| 12333 | And thereupon the enquirer asked,"For what cause?" |
| 12333 | And they who saw her asked themselves,''Is this an Apsara, or a daughter of the gods, or a celestial phantom?'' |
| 12333 | And thus addressed, the king said,"Hath any one, before this, seen birds thus speak the pure speech of man? |
| 12333 | And what also did they do, when the twelfth year of their exile passed away? |
| 12333 | And what also is his chief refuge?'' |
| 12333 | And what did the offspring of the Sun, Karna, and the mighty Sakuni, and Bhishma, and Drona, and Kripa do? |
| 12333 | And what did those exceedingly powerful ones, gifted with manliness, do? |
| 12333 | And what do ye desire?'' |
| 12333 | And what hath been called simplicity?'' |
| 12333 | And what hath been spoken of as grief?'' |
| 12333 | And what he, that is devoted to virtue?'' |
| 12333 | And what is charity?'' |
| 12333 | And what is envy?'' |
| 12333 | And what is more numerous than grass?'' |
| 12333 | And what is of the foremost value to those that bring forth?'' |
| 12333 | And what is pride? |
| 12333 | And what is shame?'' |
| 12333 | And what is that which if renounced, maketh one happy?'' |
| 12333 | And what is that which sacrifice can not do without?'' |
| 12333 | And what is that which swells with its own impetus?'' |
| 12333 | And what is the best of all kinds of happiness?'' |
| 12333 | And what is the largest field?'' |
| 12333 | And what is this entire Universe?'' |
| 12333 | And what is true restraint? |
| 12333 | And what is_ the_ news? |
| 12333 | And what practice of theirs is like that of the impious?'' |
| 12333 | And what practice of theirs is like that of the impious?'' |
| 12333 | And what was the food of those high- souled ones, when those heroes of the worlds dwelt( there)? |
| 12333 | And what, as poison? |
| 12333 | And what, of happiness?'' |
| 12333 | And what, patience? |
| 12333 | And when the_ Asura_ was gone, Indra said to that lady,"Who and whose wife art thou, O lady with a beautiful face, and what has brought thee here?"''" |
| 12333 | And where do the actions of an animated being who is dead find their resting place?'' |
| 12333 | And where is that same sable person that was dragging me away?" |
| 12333 | And who are they with whom an alliance can not break?'' |
| 12333 | And who is the friend of one about to die?'' |
| 12333 | And who is this best of serpents having a body like unto a mountain mass?'' |
| 12333 | And why also hast thou assumed the shape of a monkey? |
| 12333 | And why doth Bhima too, endued with great strength, delay? |
| 12333 | And why doth the wielder also of the_ Gandiva_ delay? |
| 12333 | And, O Bharata, her father asked her every morning and evening saying,''O daughter, is the Brahmana satisfied with thy ministrations?'' |
| 12333 | And, O Pandava, has thou adequately secured the weapons? |
| 12333 | And, O Partha, doth not Dhaumya grieve at thy conduct? |
| 12333 | And, O Partha, hath not thy attention to thy father and thy mother diminished? |
| 12333 | And, O best of righteous men among the twice- born, in what way is an embodied animated being joined by his good and evil deeds that seek him out? |
| 12333 | And, O best of those that are proficient in the knowledge of God, how is it that men''s actions follow them? |
| 12333 | And, O descendant of Bhrigu, is what we experience in this world the result of the acts of this very life? |
| 12333 | And, O eminently pious one, to whom and in what prescribed way did he give it? |
| 12333 | And, O evil- minded one, having partaken of our food, how canst thou carry us off? |
| 12333 | And, O foremost of reptiles, what wilt thou do with me? |
| 12333 | And, O foremost of the Bharatas, being frightened, he again and again cried,"Where art thou?" |
| 12333 | And, O king, he also said unto me,"Why hast thou, transgressing the rules of hunting, hit the animal first hit at by me? |
| 12333 | And, O king, how can one acquire intelligence?'' |
| 12333 | And, O king, on seeing this wonderful city of the Daityas, I asked Matali saying,"What is this that looketh so wonderful?" |
| 12333 | And, O king, whence also doth she come? |
| 12333 | And, O messenger of the gods, what constitutes happiness in heaven, and what are the disadvantages thereof? |
| 12333 | Answer_ me_ who enquire of thee? |
| 12333 | Are all thy superiors, and the aged, and those versed in the Vedas, honoured by thee? |
| 12333 | Art thou a Siddha, or a god, or a Gandharva, or a Guhyaka? |
| 12333 | Art thou a friend of ours, or even our father himself?'' |
| 12333 | Art thou not ashamed? |
| 12333 | Art thou possessed of any magic, or hast thou received any boon, that although exerting myself, I have been overcome by thee? |
| 12333 | Art thou the foremost of the Vasus, or of the Rudras, or of the chief of the Maruts? |
| 12333 | Art thou, as sole ruler, governing with justice the rich countries of Saivya, Sivi, Sindhu and others that thou hast brought under thy sway? |
| 12333 | Aswapati then said,"And is the prince Satyavan liberal in gifts and devoted to the Brahmanas? |
| 12333 | Beautiful lady, how is it that they are so obedient to thee and are never angry with thee? |
| 12333 | Benefited as thou has been, whence is this unreasonable grief of thine? |
| 12333 | But as in cold, heat doth not exist, nor in heat, cold, so there can not exist an object in which both( happiness and misery) can not exist?'' |
| 12333 | But how can one like us, acquainted with every truth of morality, embrace even for a moment a woman that had fallen into other''s hands? |
| 12333 | But what can I do? |
| 12333 | By obtaining which, or by knowing what wilt thou receive satisfaction, O snake, and what food shall I give thee? |
| 12333 | By what doth he attain what is very great? |
| 12333 | Do thou understand this? |
| 12333 | Do thy subjects continue to pay thee the same allegiance that they used to pay thee before? |
| 12333 | Dost thou follow the customs of thy ancestors, by charity, and religious observances, and asceticism, and purity, and candour, and forgiveness? |
| 12333 | Dost thou not exalt thyself? |
| 12333 | Dost thou not know, O hawk, that this creature looketh like a sacrifice with the_ Soma_ juice? |
| 12333 | Dost thou not pay heed unto the established order of nature? |
| 12333 | Dost thou not think so? |
| 12333 | Engaged as thou are, what canst thou do to me with these angry glances of thine? |
| 12333 | Exaltest thou thy husband above them? |
| 12333 | Exquisitely beautiful as thou art, how is it that thou feelest not any fear in these forests? |
| 12333 | For what are friends forsaken? |
| 12333 | For what didst thou do all this?'' |
| 12333 | For what may a kingdom be considered as dead? |
| 12333 | For what may a_ Sraddha_ be considered as dead? |
| 12333 | For what to mimes and dancers? |
| 12333 | For what to servants? |
| 12333 | Forsaking Arjuna the might of whose arm is worshipped by all the sons of Pandu, why dost thou wish Nakula to revive?'' |
| 12333 | From what motive then dost thou wish a step- brother to revive? |
| 12333 | Hast thou even seen or heard of any chaste and exalted lady that resembleth this daughter of Drupada?'' |
| 12333 | Hast thou, adorable sir, reached this place without any difficulty?"'' |
| 12333 | Hath thou ever seen or heard of such a one before?''" |
| 12333 | Have the lord of the celestials and_ Rudra_ gladly granted thee the weapons? |
| 12333 | Having afflicted thy enemies by thy prowess, why dost thou wish for death? |
| 12333 | Having once tasted the sweet wine prepared from honey or flowers, how can a woman, I fancy, relish the wretched arrak from rice?" |
| 12333 | He fell down upon the ground, and screaming loudly said,''I have harmed no one, what sinful man has done this?'' |
| 12333 | He then asked me,"Is there any one who is longer lived than thou?" |
| 12333 | Hearing these words, Yudhishthira said,''Art thou the foremost of the Rudras, or of the Vasus, or of the Marutas? |
| 12333 | How also do men pass it over? |
| 12333 | How can I answer thee, O lady, about the cause that is pursued by wicked females? |
| 12333 | How can a she- elephant, who hath lived with the mighty leader of a herd with rent temples forsake him and live with a hog? |
| 12333 | How can man, thereof, have salvation? |
| 12333 | How can one have a second? |
| 12333 | How can we enter the city without thee?''" |
| 12333 | How can, then, the wife do the least injury to her lord? |
| 12333 | How canst thou act so, leaving thy followers in the midst of thy foes?'' |
| 12333 | How canst thou, O Rakshasa, ravish her when I am alive? |
| 12333 | How canst thou, forsaking Bhima whose strength is equal to that of ten thousand elephants, wish Nakula to live? |
| 12333 | How could I, therefore, slay thee, who wert thus innocent of offence, and who wert in the disguise of a Brahmana? |
| 12333 | How could then illusion overpower you? |
| 12333 | How could things thus antagonistic to one another exist together?'' |
| 12333 | How else could he have thus commanded us that are dwellers of heaven, as if indeed, we were his servants? |
| 12333 | How hath the dead come to life again? |
| 12333 | How long also, O chastiser of foes, wilt thou stay here? |
| 12333 | How shall I ever speak with them? |
| 12333 | How then is god the agent? |
| 12333 | How wouldst thou, therefore, be able to walk on foot?" |
| 12333 | How, again, can one like us raise such obstacles in the way of the merchants? |
| 12333 | I ask, what god art thou? |
| 12333 | I have described all this to thee, what else dost thou wish to know?"''" |
| 12333 | I have described to thee these virtues, what else dost thou wish to learn?"''" |
| 12333 | If kingdoms become unprotected, whence can proceed prosperity and happiness? |
| 12333 | If the former be the correct reading, the meaning would be--''What is the best of things that fall?'' |
| 12333 | If, therefore, O king, the Pandavas, who live in the territories, have liberated thee, what is there to be regretted at in this? |
| 12333 | In regard to a thing of such a nature, who goeth to beseech another?''" |
| 12333 | Indeed, how could this saying be true unless, as I think, it be that everything here is dependent on Destiny? |
| 12333 | Is everything right with thy kingdom, thy government, exchequer, and thy army? |
| 12333 | Is he handsome and magnanimous and lovely to behold?" |
| 12333 | Is it after death? |
| 12333 | Is it by practising charity while leading a domestic mode of life, or in boyhood, or in youth, or in old age? |
| 12333 | Is it in this world? |
| 12333 | Is it the power of his austere virtue by which he hath revived again? |
| 12333 | Is not this so? |
| 12333 | Is she of the human kind? |
| 12333 | Is there a person who is capable of withstanding the impetus of his arrows? |
| 12333 | Is there any one who is more unfortunate than I am? |
| 12333 | Is this not current amongst the gods themselves? |
| 12333 | Janamejaya said,"Where were those heroes, the sons of Pandu, at that time? |
| 12333 | King Saudasa, O Brahmana, when under a curse, often used to prey upon men; what is thy opinion of this matter? |
| 12333 | Knowing what this pigeon sayeth, and this hawk also, how can we act to- day according to virtue? |
| 12333 | Leading a domestic life, dost thou disregard Brahmanas? |
| 12333 | My mind is greatly agitated, and as my head also is aching, I ask thee, therefore, O worshipful one, who art thou that stayest here?'' |
| 12333 | Now, O Bhima, how shall we repair to the sacred abode of Vaisravana, inhabited by the Siddhas? |
| 12333 | O great- minded one, dost thou not perceive them, simultaneously by the senses? |
| 12333 | O hero, O slayer of foes, what is to be wondered at in this that the Pandavas liberated thee when thou wert vanquished by the foe? |
| 12333 | O represser of foes, as regards thy curiosity to know me, I say this,--Why should a wise person be eager to know a superfluous matter? |
| 12333 | O, why also hath Suyodhana with his wives been thus punished?'' |
| 12333 | Of what kind also were those ear- rings and of what sort was that coat of mail? |
| 12333 | Of what use is fame to the dead whose bodies have been reduced to ashes? |
| 12333 | Oh how, can we escape from this difficulty created by the fates?'' |
| 12333 | Or is it in some subsequent existence? |
| 12333 | Or is it in this world? |
| 12333 | Or will the acts of this life bear fruit in the world to come? |
| 12333 | Or, hast thou come from the mansions of Dhatri, or of Vidhatri, or of Savitri, or of Vibhu, or of Sakra? |
| 12333 | Or, have they all fallen, in consequence of having disregarded some mighty being? |
| 12333 | Or, is it infested by some wicked beasts? |
| 12333 | Or, is this behaviour proper for a Brahmana?" |
| 12333 | Or, not finding water in the spot whither those heroes had first repaired, they have spent all this time in search through the forest? |
| 12333 | Piercing whose breasts will terrible shafts stick to the ground to- day? |
| 12333 | Proud woman, dost thou not know it, hast thou never heard it, that the Brahmanas are like fire and may consume the entire earth?" |
| 12333 | Relieved from distress by the foe, what man of spirit is there who can drag on his existence? |
| 12333 | SECTION CCCI Janamejaya said,"What was that secret which was not revealed to Karna by the deity of warm rays? |
| 12333 | SECTION CCLVI Janamejaya said,"After having delivered Duryodhana, what did the mighty sons of Pandu do in that forest? |
| 12333 | SECTION CCLVIII"Yudhishthira said,''Why did that high- souled one give away a drona of corn? |
| 12333 | SECTION CLIX Janamejaya said,"How long did my great grandsires, the highsouled sons of Pandu of matchless prowess, dwell in the Gandhamadana mountain? |
| 12333 | SECTION CXLVI Vaisampayana said,"O represser of foes, hearing these words of the intelligent monkey- chief, the heroic Bhima answered,''Who art thou? |
| 12333 | Savitri said,"What weariness can I feel in the presence of my husband? |
| 12333 | Say, who art thou, and what for hast thou come to the forest devoid of humanity and human beings? |
| 12333 | Shall we all with the Brahmanas, be again established in our own kingdom?'' |
| 12333 | So like unto a fish in water, whose mouth hath been hooked, how canst thou live to- day? |
| 12333 | So, how could they, absorbed in his contemplation, experience happiness there? |
| 12333 | Subject as I am to thy power, what shall I do, O queen? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,''What institutes the divinity of the Kshatriyas? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,''What is that which constitutes the_ Sama_ of the sacrifice? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,''What is that which doth not close its eyes while asleep? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,''What is weightier than the earth itself? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,''Who is the friend of the exile? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''By what, O king, birth, behaviour, study, or learning doth a person become a Brahmana? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''For what doth one give away to Brahmanas? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''For what may one be considered as dead? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''O bull of the Bharata race, who is he that is condemned to everlasting hell? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''What constitutes the way? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''What doth one gain that speaketh agreeable words? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''What enemy is invincible? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''What hath been said to be the sign of asceticism? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''What hath steadiness been said by the_ Rishis_ to be? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''What is pride, and what is hypocrisy? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''What is that which, if renounced, maketh one agreeable? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''What is the best of all laudable things? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''What is the highest duty in the world? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''What is the highest refuge of virtue? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''What is the soul of man? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''What man should be regarded as learned, and who should be called an atheist? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''What, O king is said to be knowledge? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''What, O king, is ignorance? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''Who is the guest of all creatures? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''Who is truly happy? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha asked,--''With what is the world enveloped? |
| 12333 | The Yaksha then said,''What is it that maketh the Sun rise? |
| 12333 | The chief of the gods enquires: What are the joys of those that lead deathless lives? |
| 12333 | The daughters begotten by the Fire- god,_ Tapa_, went over to Skanda, who said to them,"What can I do for you?" |
| 12333 | The first question then, becomes,''Who is it that exalteth the unpurified soul?'' |
| 12333 | The king then asked,"And is prince Satyavan, who is devoted to his father, endued with energy and intelligence and forgiveness and courage?" |
| 12333 | The promises of men may be ineffectual; but why have the words of the gods uttered in respect of thee been thus fruitless? |
| 12333 | The second question--''What are those that keep company with the soul during its progress of purification?'' |
| 12333 | The third question is.--Who lead the soul to its place( state) of rest? |
| 12333 | Then they all approached the effulgent Vrikodara of mighty arms and asked,''Who art thou? |
| 12333 | Thereupon Hanuman said,''Who is that Hanuman, who had bounded over the ocean? |
| 12333 | Thereupon, the invisible Yaksha said,''What need of all this trouble, O son of Pritha? |
| 12333 | Thinkest thou, O slayer of Paka, that thou shalt be able to return home with thy life?" |
| 12333 | Thou art like a child steeped in ignorance, for what then hast thou become( so) old in years?"'' |
| 12333 | Unworthy of a forest life, how will thy daughter, living in the sylvan asylum, bear this hardship?" |
| 12333 | Upon whom shall I bestow wealth to- day, or whose wealth shall be confiscated? |
| 12333 | Vasava addressed then that_ Asura_ saying,"Why art thou bent on behaving insolently to this lady? |

| 12333 | Why art thou bent upon this unprofitable business?''" |
| 12333 | Why do then reasonable persons like thee commit themselves to acts contaminating alike body, speech, and heart, and destructive of virtue? |
| 12333 | Why do you ask me that question? |
| 12333 | Why dost thou grieve, O slayer of foes? |
| 12333 | Why dost thou lie down? |
| 12333 | Why dost thou not, therefore, thyself being equal to a Regent of the Universe, observe virtue? |
| 12333 | Why dost thou stay here in the form of a boy having swallowed up the entire universe? |
| 12333 | Why hast thou awakened me? |
| 12333 | Why hast thou come so late in the night? |
| 12333 | Why hast thou, then, undertaken to do such a rash act as the vow of starvation? |
| 12333 | Why should he not behave honestly towards him that is honest? |
| 12333 | Why then do people become so anxious about earning wealth? |
| 12333 | Why then dost thou say that thou art the brother of Yudhishthira the just? |
| 12333 | Why then in the present case have we met with this disaster?''" |
| 12333 | Why then, O lord, hast thou come in person?"'' |
| 12333 | Why therefore, hast thou returned( thus unsuccessful)? |
| 12333 | Why wouldst thou abandoning from foolishness the high prosperity that I won for thee, cast off thy life today, O king, yielding to silliness? |
| 12333 | Why, O sinless one, is the entire universe within thy body? |
| 12333 | Will this ornament of womankind, this slender- waisted lady of so much beauty, endued with handsome teeth and large eyes, accept me as her lord? |
| 12333 | Will ye impart life unto me? |
| 12333 | Will ye once more enable me to reign in Ayodhya after having slain my enemy in battle and rescued the daughter of Janaka? |
| 12333 | With allies such as these, why dost thou despair, O chastiser of foes? |
| 12333 | Witnessing these strange phenomena, Dharma''s son Yudhishthira, the foremost of speakers, said,''Who is it that will overcome us? |
| 12333 | Would not the Pandavas destroy us by looking down upon us with angry eyes? |
| 12333 | Ye how can I do what is sinful by taking it on myself to surrender my person to him?''" |
| 12333 | You too are learned in this matter, what is your opinion?'' |
| 12333 | [ 52] And coming upon us unawares for devouring us, he said,''Who are ye that are speaking thus of my brother_ Jatayu_? |
| 12333 | [ 76] I do not know what thou mayst think of all this, O Yaksha?'' |
| 12333 | that Bhima, of mighty prowess and possessing the strength of ten thousand elephants, was stricken with panic at( the sight of) that snake? |
| 7864 | ''The husband then addressing his wife Pradweshi, said,''Why is it that thou also hast been dissatisfied with me?'' |
| 7864 | ''After the birth of Vrikodara, Pandu again began to think,How am I to obtain a very superior son who shall achieve world- wide fame? |
| 7864 | ''Arjuna answered,She is Vasudeva''s daughter and Vasudeva''s( Krishna) sister; endued with so much beauty, whom can she not fascinate? |
| 7864 | ''Ashtaka asked,For what sin are beings, when they fall from heaven, attacked by these fierce and sharp- toothed Rakshasas? |
| 7864 | ''Ashtaka asked,How many kinds of Munis are there( observers of the vow of the silence)?" |
| 7864 | ''Ashtaka said,How, O father, do men attain to those superior regions whence there is no return to earthly life? |
| 7864 | ''Ashtaka then said,Whose are those five golden cars that we see? |
| 7864 | ''Hearing these words, Hidimva said,What need is there, O man, for this thy vaunt and this thy boast? |
| 7864 | ''Hearing this, Sukra said,O daughter, what good can I do to thee? |
| 7864 | ''Jarita then said,What hast thou to do with the eldest of these, and what with him that is next? |
| 7864 | ''Mandapala then said,Who amongst these is thy first born, and who the next after him? |
| 7864 | ''On hearing this, Yudhishthira asked,O great Muni, whose sons were Asuras called Sunda and Upasunda? |
| 7864 | ''When they had all finished speaking, Vyasa said,O amiable one, how shall thou be saved from the consequence of untruth? |
| 7864 | And Sringin asked,''What wrong was done to that wicked monarch by my father? 7864 Astika asked,''Why wert thou, O mother, bestowed on my father by my uncle? |
| 7864 | Janamejaya asked,''O Brahmana, how was Drona born? 7864 Janamejaya said,''O Brahmana, what did those tigers among men, the Pandavas, do after they had slain the Rakshasa Vaka?'' |
| 7864 | Janamejaya said,''O best of Brahmanas, how did Gandhari bring forth those hundred sons and in how many years? 7864 Vaisampayana continued,''And Devayani without waiting for a reply from the king, asked the children themselves,"Ye children, what is your lineage? |
| 7864 | Vaisampayana continued,''Sukra then said,By what path, O Brahmana, hast thou entered my stomach, where thou stayest now? |
| 7864 | A child as thou art, how much more dost thou stand in need of counsel? |
| 7864 | Again, how was his son Aswatthaman, the foremost of all skilled in arms born? |
| 7864 | Always melancholy at the thought of the Rishi''s curse, how came he to be merry with thee in solitude? |
| 7864 | Amongst his friends, or of our own race, who art thou, O excellent one, that thus grievest for us all like a friend? |
| 7864 | An instant after Drona asked him as in the case of others,"Seest thou, O Arjuna, the bird there, the tree, and myself?" |
| 7864 | And Devayani asked in surprise,"Whose children are they, O king, who are so handsome and so like unto the children of the celestials? |
| 7864 | And Devayani said,"O daughter of the Asura( chief), why dost thou take my attire, being, as thou art, my disciple? |
| 7864 | And Jaratkaru, approaching the pitiable ones, himself in humble guise, asked them,''Who are ye hanging by this cord of virana roots? |
| 7864 | And King Paushya, having returned Utanka''s salutations, said,''Sir, what shall I do for thee?'' |
| 7864 | And Ruru asked,''O thou best of snakes, for what wast thou cursed by a Brahmana in wrath? |
| 7864 | And Ruru, the possessor of the six attributes, comforting the snake addressed it, saying,''Tell me fully, O snake, who art thou thus metamorphosed?'' |
| 7864 | And addressing Bhima he said,"Who is this fool, who desiring to go to the abode of Yama, eateth in my very sight the food intended for me?" |
| 7864 | And beholding that man of grim visage, who was totally a stranger to them, they asked,"Who art thou and whose son?" |
| 7864 | And having said this, he went with his disciples into the forest and began to shout, saying,''Ho Upamanyu, where art thou?'' |
| 7864 | And he asked himself,"What will the illustrious ascetic say, after he has known all?" |
| 7864 | And he said,"How, O illustrious one, can one woman become the wife of many men without being defiled by sin? |
| 7864 | And he said,"Who art thou, O fair one, of nails bright as burnished copper, and with ear- rings decked with celestial gems? |
| 7864 | And his mother seeing him crying exceedingly asked him,''Why criest thou so? |
| 7864 | And his preceptor seeing him in good condition of body asked him,''Upamanyu, my child, upon what dost thou support thyself? |
| 7864 | And how long also will thy form continue so?''" |
| 7864 | And looking at Krisa, and speaking softly, he asked him,''Pray, why doth my father bear today a dead snake?'' |
| 7864 | And not seeing the Rishi and finding that the abode was empty, he called loudly, saying,"What ho, who is here?" |
| 7864 | And remembering the immense service done by him, who is there so ungrateful as to injure him? |
| 7864 | And she asked herself,"Could the illustrious Vyasa himself( who had directed my sons to come to Panchala) have been guided by perverse intelligence?" |
| 7864 | And she thought,''What should I now do? |
| 7864 | And the Grandsire addressing him, that penance- practising one of great fortitude, said,''What is that thou doest, O Sesha? |
| 7864 | And the Rishi in a rage asked her,''By whom wast thou made known to that Rakshasa who resolved to carry thee away? |
| 7864 | And the entire assembly, motionless and with steadfast gaze, thought,"Who is he?" |
| 7864 | And the great Rishi( Kasyapa) then asked him,''O child, is it well with thee? |
| 7864 | And the illustrious monarch asked Dhristadyumna on his return,"Oh, where hath Krishna gone? |
| 7864 | And the mighty god of wind, thus invoked, came unto her, riding upon a deer, and said,"What, O Kunti, am I to give thee? |
| 7864 | And the prince of snakes then spake unto that bull among Munis, Kasyapa, saying,''Whither dost thou go with such speed? |
| 7864 | And the queen of rivers beholding them in the predicament, asked them,"Why look ye so dejected? |
| 7864 | And there were some that said,"What good is not done to us today when the heroic sons of Kunti come back to our town? |
| 7864 | And those Brahmanas who were all Brahmacharis beholding the Pandavas, O king, asked them,"Where are ye going to? |
| 7864 | And what the horse of extraordinary size likewise beheld by me? |
| 7864 | And what with the third and what with the youngest? |
| 7864 | And when Vyasa came out, he was met by his mother, who asked him,"Shall the princess have an accomplished son?" |
| 7864 | And who is the third, and who the youngest? |
| 7864 | And who was the Brahmana ascetic from whose curse the god had to be born in the Sudra caste?'' |
| 7864 | And whose daughter, O beautiful one? |
| 7864 | And whose son also was that best of regenerate ones?" |
| 7864 | And why art thou, low as thou art, in the guise of an ascetic? |
| 7864 | And, O Brahmana, how and for whom and for what reason was the friendship between Drona and Drupada broken off?"'' |
| 7864 | And, O thou eater of the sacrificial butter, why dost thou act so foolishly, being, as thou art, the Lord of all? |
| 7864 | Approaching Indra, the celestials said,"Why, O lord of immortals, doth Agni burn these creatures below? |
| 7864 | Arrived here, where hath he gone? |
| 7864 | Art thou going down into the Earth?" |
| 7864 | Art thou not ashamed to speak them, especially before me? |
| 7864 | Art thou that foremost of sky- ranging bodies-- the sun-- emerging from, dark masses of clouds? |
| 7864 | As I am deprived of judgment what should I do that is consistent with duty? |
| 7864 | At these words of her son, Satyavati said,"O thou of ascetic wealth, how can one that is blind become a monarch worthy of the Kurus? |
| 7864 | Beholding their plight, Sakra became seized with grief and exclaimed,''Shall I be even like these?'' |
| 7864 | Being their daughter, why dost thou speak like a lewd woman? |
| 7864 | Being, as I am, their mouth, how am I to be an eater of all things( clean and unclean)?'' |
| 7864 | Burnt with the strong flame of desire the king asked that charming maiden, still innocent, though in her full youth, saying,''Who art thou and whose? |
| 7864 | But dost thou not know that this royal sage is held by me in greater esteem still?"'' |
| 7864 | But how is it that Usinara''s son, Sivi hath already left us behind?" |
| 7864 | But knowest thou not that the Ancient, Omniscient one( Narayana) liveth in thy heart? |
| 7864 | But shall this my son born after him become king? |
| 7864 | But the next instant Drona again asked him,"What dost thou see now, O prince? |
| 7864 | But thou hast not as yet said what the cause was of the escape of the Sarngakas? |
| 7864 | But what can I do, for, ye sinful wretches, the virtuous king Yudhishthira, the eldest of the Pandavas, is not yet angry with you?" |
| 7864 | But what must be the means?'' |
| 7864 | But who is Tapati that we should be called Tapatyas?"'' |
| 7864 | But, O Nandini, even Viswamitra is taking thee away by force, what can I do in this matter, as I am a forgiving Brahmana?''" |
| 7864 | By what means dost thou contrive to live now?'' |
| 7864 | Can the great Bhimasena of strong arms possessing the might of ten thousand elephants, be vanquished in battle by the immortals themselves? |
| 7864 | Can the heart of one that rangeth the woods be agitated by the god of desire? |
| 7864 | Devayani then enquired,"O king, what hast thou come here for? |
| 7864 | Dhananjaya, the son of Kunti, beholding that strange sight, asked that damsel with a pleased heart,"Who art thou, O beautiful one? |
| 7864 | Didst thou not speak to Agni in my presence, in their behalf? |
| 7864 | Disregarding thy words, why shall we not touch the sacred waters of the Bhagirathi free from all dangers and from which none can bar us?"'' |
| 7864 | Do men that repair to these regions of everlasting bliss ride in them?" |
| 7864 | Do ye worship the Brahmanas? |
| 7864 | Do you know any act by which I may cast into the blazing fire the snake Takshaka with his relatives? |
| 7864 | Dost thou get sufficient food every day? |
| 7864 | Dost thou not fear to have recourse once more to that Asura custom of thine?" |
| 7864 | Dost thou not hear me? |
| 7864 | Dost thou now desire to revive thy friendship( with me)?" |
| 7864 | Dost thou want to have your youth?" |
| 7864 | Dost thou, O Asura chief, think that I am a raving liar? |
| 7864 | Doth a being that hath received a human form enter the womb in its own shape or in some other? |
| 7864 | Doth he do so at thy command or of his own accord?" |
| 7864 | Doth he shine like fire, or is he of tranquil mien? |
| 7864 | Draupadi, from jealousy, spoke unto him, saying,"Why tarriest thou here, O son of Kunti? |
| 7864 | Even ants support their own eggs without destroying them; then why shouldst not thou, a virtuous man that thou art, support thy own child? |
| 7864 | For what cause, O foremost of those that flourished in the Krita age, hast thou been compelled to leave that region and come hither?" |
| 7864 | Garuda then asked,''O mother, of what form is a Brahmana, of what behaviour, and of what prowess? |
| 7864 | Garuda, after reflecting for a few moments, asked his mother Vinata, saying,''Why, mother, have I to do the bidding of the snakes?'' |
| 7864 | Has not Bhrigu appropriated her who was chosen by me as my wife? |
| 7864 | Has not the illustrious deity promised to save them? |
| 7864 | Hast thou also made them thy study? |
| 7864 | Hast thou become so senseless, O Hidimva, that thou fearest not my wrath? |
| 7864 | Hast thou been deprived of thy reason? |
| 7864 | Hast thou seen it?'' |
| 7864 | Hath any Kshatriya of high birth, or any one of the superior order( Brahmana) obtained my daughter? |
| 7864 | Hath any Sudra or anybody of mean descent, or hath a tribute- paying Vaisya by taking my daughter away, placed his dirty foot on my head? |
| 7864 | Hath any one of mean descent, by having won Krishna, placed his left foot on my head? |
| 7864 | Hath not that one sin been conquered by this my asceticism? |
| 7864 | Hath the time come for the destruction of the world?"'' |
| 7864 | Hath thy understanding been clouded by the calamities thou hast undergone?" |
| 7864 | Have I not performed those acts whose fruits are these regions? |
| 7864 | Have you sent him anywhere? |
| 7864 | Having already suffered so much, where now are we to go? |
| 7864 | Having never done so before, how shall I now accept a gift?" |
| 7864 | He is possessed of allies; how can we by force exile him from his ancestral kingdom? |
| 7864 | He therefore asked her,"Who art thou? |
| 7864 | Hearing that sound, the Rishi asked,''Who is it that followeth me?'' |
| 7864 | Hearing this, the king asked him,"Whose son art thou?" |
| 7864 | His appetite unsatiated, shall I not follow him in the region of Yama to gratify him? |
| 7864 | How also can one gradually attain to felicitous regions? |
| 7864 | How also did Drupada''s son learn all weapons from the great bowman Drona? |
| 7864 | How also did the extraordinary birth of Krishna take place from the centre of the sacrificial platform? |
| 7864 | How am I to obtain the fruition of my wishes? |
| 7864 | How and whence did he acquire his arms? |
| 7864 | How and why came he unto the Kurus? |
| 7864 | How can I act as not to offend him? |
| 7864 | How can I, therefore, show my regard for her?'' |
| 7864 | How can a kingdom be protected that hath no king? |
| 7864 | How can a woman like me even touch such a one full of ascetic virtues, like unto a blazing fire, and having his passions under complete control? |
| 7864 | How can a woman like me gaze at him without alarm? |
| 7864 | How can he( therefore) become king now? |
| 7864 | How can one that is blind become the protector of his relatives and family, and the glory of his father''s race? |
| 7864 | How can then this womb of mine afford room for two children at a time? |
| 7864 | How canst thou be my waiting- maid?" |
| 7864 | How dare ye approach me who am the brightest jewel on the diadem of Kuvera?" |
| 7864 | How did Dhritarashtra also beget another son in a Vaisya wife? |
| 7864 | How did Dhritarashtra behave towards his loving, obedient, and virtuous wife Gandhari? |
| 7864 | How did he spring from a clump of heath? |
| 7864 | How did he then forgetting the Rishi''s curse, approach thee with enkindled desire? |
| 7864 | How did my father, blessed with many virtues, meet with his death? |

| 7864 | I am speaking unto thee woefully; why dost thou not reply to me? |
| 7864 | I ask thee if there are any worlds for me to enjoy as fruits of my religious merits, in heaven or the firmament? |
| 7864 | I ask thee, O king, are there any regions for myself to enjoy in heaven or in the firmament? |

| 7864 | O thou exalted one, tell me truly who hath won my daughter today? |
| 7864 | O thou of sweet smiles, why dost thou wander alone in these solitary woods? |
| 7864 | O thou of the fairest complexion, on what business hast thou come hither and whence hast thou come? |
| 7864 | O thou whose wealth is asceticism, desirous of what wealth, goest thou thither? |
| 7864 | O, are the sons of that foremost of Kurus, Vichitravirya''s son alive? |
| 7864 | O, what hath happened, what should I do? |
| 7864 | Of what sin is he not capable? |
| 7864 | Oh why then didst thou yet like to live here? |
| 7864 | Oh, how is Jaritari, my son, and how is Sarisrikka, and how is Stamvamitra, and how is Drona, and how also is their helpless mother?" |
| 7864 | Oh, what can be more painful than this? |
| 7864 | On hearing these words, Ekalavya was very much gratified, and said in reply,"O illustrious preceptor, what shall I give? |
| 7864 | One day, Devavrata approaching his afflicted father said,"All is prosperity with thee; all chiefs obey thee; then how is it that thou grievest thus? |
| 7864 | Otherwise why should not the Immutable Lord prevent our mother while uttering the curse? |
| 7864 | Pray, what is that? |
| 7864 | Reduced to nothing upon such dissolution, by what principle is one revived?" |
| 7864 | SECTION CVII( Sambhava Parva continued)"Janamejaya said,''What did the god of justice do for which he was cursed? |
| 7864 | SECTION XXXI( Astika Parva continued) Saunaka said,"O son of Suta, what was Indra''s fault, what his act of carelessness? |
| 7864 | Saunaka said,"Was it, O Suta, that the mantras of those wise Brahmanas were not potent; since Takshaka did not fall into the fire?" |
| 7864 | Saunaka said,"When did the revered Surya resolve at the time to burn the worlds? |
| 7864 | Seeing them about to start, Pandu asked those ascetics, saying,"Ye first of eloquent men, where shall we go?" |
| 7864 | Seen by them, how can I grant thy wish?" |
| 7864 | Seest thou the tree, myself or thy brothers?" |
| 7864 | Shall I choose him also for my husband whom Devayani hath chosen? |
| 7864 | Shall I not resent it, even like a snake that is trodden upon? |
| 7864 | Shall I wake my husband or not? |
| 7864 | Shall we not be glad when our doubts have been removed? |
| 7864 | She asked,"O thou of the splendour of a daughter of the celestials, whose art thou and who art thou? |
| 7864 | Should I have peace or war with them? |
| 7864 | Smiling, he asked,"O Kunti, what am I to give thee?" |
| 7864 | Takshaka answered, saying,"Why dost thou seek to revive the king to be bitten by me? |
| 7864 | Tell me, O amiable and beautiful one, where has the illustrious Rishi gone?" |
| 7864 | The Asuras, beholding me, asked''Who art thou?'' |
| 7864 | The Pandavas said,"How, O Brahmana, did the birth of Dhrishtadyumna the son of Drupada, take place from the( sacrificial) fire? |
| 7864 | The eldest son of Pritha, filled with fraternal love, going unto his mother, said, after making obeisance to her,"O mother, hath Bhima come? |
| 7864 | The king addressing her, said,"Who art thou, and whose daughter? |
| 7864 | The latter coming before her, asked,"What are thy commands?" |
| 7864 | The latter, observing the Rishi sitting under the tree, questioned him, O king, saying,"O best of Brahmanas, which way have the thieves taken? |
| 7864 | The moment after, she beheld Krishna and then she said,"Oh, what have I said?" |
| 7864 | The wielder of the thunderbolt, beholding that wonderful sight, approached the woman and asked her,''Who art thou, amiable lady? |
| 7864 | Then Arjuna said,"What need, O Bhima, for keeping the Rakshasa alive so long? |
| 7864 | Then Rama, that oppressor of foes, spoke unto Vasudeva, saying,"Why, O Janardana, sittest thou, gazing silently? |
| 7864 | Then Yudhishthira, addressing Bhima endued with great energy, said,"What can be more painful than this? |
| 7864 | Then the gods, accompanied by the Rishis, wended to the Grandsire, and said unto him,''O what is this great heat today that causeth such panic? |
| 7864 | Then wherefore wilt thou slay me in anger?''" |
| 7864 | Then why dost thou reprove me? |
| 7864 | Then, O Bharata, that tiger among men, Krishna, observing Partha contemplate her with absorbed attention, said with a smile,"How is this? |
| 7864 | Then, Vasuki, learning all, was pleased with Bhima, and said to Aryaka with satisfaction,"How are we to please him? |
| 7864 | Therefore, O Ashtaka, why should I grieve? |
| 7864 | Therefore, O deer, why dost thou reprove me?" |
| 7864 | Therefore, O thou of the fairest complexion, how hast thou been born as his daughter? |
| 7864 | Therefore, why dost thou desire the continuance of our former friendship?"'' |
| 7864 | They were much pleased with Astika and asked him to solicit a boon, saying,''O learned one, what good shall we do unto thee? |
| 7864 | This woman is the sister of that Rakshasa, what can she do to us even if she were angry?"'' |
| 7864 | Thou art my life, wealth, and lord; bereft of thee, how shall these children of tender years-- how also shall I myself, exist? |
| 7864 | Thus addressed, the queen of rivers told them,"Be it so"and asked them,"On earth, who is that foremost of men whom ye will make your father?" |
| 7864 | Thus benefited of old by Pandu, shall not, O child, the citizens slay us with all our friends and relatives now on account of Yudhishthira?" |
| 7864 | To him his eldest son born of Devayani then said,"What needest thou, O king? |
| 7864 | Unaccustomed to pain, shall they not droop in affliction? |
| 7864 | Unfortunate that I am, what shall Vasuki say unto me? |
| 7864 | Was it Partha( Arjuna) that took up the bow and shot the mark?"''" |
| 7864 | Was she an Apsara( water nymph) or the daughter of any celestial? |
| 7864 | What also can we do for thee?" |
| 7864 | What also do you, my infant sons, think? |
| 7864 | What also hath this child of thine, Gangadatta, done for which he shall have to live among men? |
| 7864 | What can be more deplorable to us, her friends? |
| 7864 | What can be more ridiculous in the world than that those that are themselves wicked should represent the really honest as wicked? |
| 7864 | What can therefore be more amusing than that they both should give thee advice which is not for thy good? |
| 7864 | What did they do after hearing of that curse?" |
| 7864 | What dost thou do here, O timid one?" |
| 7864 | What dost thou think, O son?''" |
| 7864 | What dost thou think, sister? |
| 7864 | What else can be said, O king, than that monarch''s sovereignty was dependent on destiny? |
| 7864 | What good luck doth he not deserve who, after overcoming a foe by his might, giveth him life when that foe asketh for it? |
| 7864 | What good shall I do to thee?'' |
| 7864 | What hast thou done, O best of men, in killing me who have given thee no offence? |
| 7864 | What hath occasioned thy long absence?'' |
| 7864 | What is this that thou hast, O monarch, desired to do? |
| 7864 | What man again is there on earth that would sell his offspring? |
| 7864 | What man like me would go to gratify his lust, leaving his sleeping mother and brothers as food for a Rakshasa?" |
| 7864 | What man of wisdom and virtue is there that can kill a deer while engaged in such an act? |
| 7864 | What more wilt thou ask me?" |
| 7864 | What need of altercation which is the exercise of the weak? |
| 7864 | What other man is there in this world superior to thee? |
| 7864 | What shall I do for thee? |
| 7864 | What shall I do for you? |
| 7864 | What shall I do?" |
| 7864 | What shall I relate to you?" |
| 7864 | What shall I say which would be for your good? |
| 7864 | What should we do, therefore, but bestow her on Samvarana?'' |
| 7864 | What too doth that import? |
| 7864 | What transgression can be imputed to me who was labouring to do justice and speak the truth impartially? |
| 7864 | What was the cause of the disunion amongst them that was fruitful of such extraordinary deeds? |
| 7864 | What were also the periods of life allotted to each? |
| 7864 | What would he have lost if the king had revived by the grace of Kasyapa and the precautionary measures of his ministers? |
| 7864 | What wrong was done to him by the gods that provoked his ire?" |
| 7864 | What( act) should I do now that is consistent with duty? |
| 7864 | What, O Karna, dost thou think?"''" |
| 7864 | What, besides, is the business upon which thou art intent?'' |
| 7864 | What, indeed, am I to do? |
| 7864 | What, revered Sirs, do ye wish to hear now? |
| 7864 | When others desirous of acquiring religious merits do not accept gifts, how can I do what they themselves do not?" |
| 7864 | When the maiden of handsome face had so sat upon his lap, the monarch said unto her,"O amiable one, what dost thou desire? |
| 7864 | When these will remain quiet, how shall the illustrious son of Madri do anything? |
| 7864 | Whence also are ye come?" |
| 7864 | Whence also did he obtain his weapons?'' |
| 7864 | Whence arose that dissension amongst them, and why did they slay each other? |
| 7864 | Whence dost thou come and where dost thou go? |
| 7864 | Where art thou? |
| 7864 | Where doth man then reside? |
| 7864 | Where has he gone? |
| 7864 | Where is that foremost of great Rishis, where also is that Apsara Menaka? |
| 7864 | Where is that manliness of thine, those high words of thine begotten of pride, when thou must have to behold thy father bearing a dead snake? |
| 7864 | Where may he have gone? |
| 7864 | Wherefore hath he been beaten?'' |
| 7864 | Wherefore reprovest us then? |
| 7864 | Who also became the Sadasyas in that terrible snake- sacrifice, so frightful to the snakes, and begetting such sorrow in them? |
| 7864 | Who also can encounter Duryodhana in battle except Krishna, the son of Devaki, and Kripa, the son of Saradwan? |
| 7864 | Who also is he? |
| 7864 | Who also that desireth to live can overcome in battle the twins( Nakula and Sahadeva) like unto the sons of Yama himself, and well- skilled in fight? |
| 7864 | Who also would approve of accepting a bride in gift as if she were an animal? |
| 7864 | Who also, O sinless one, is this lady of transcendent beauty sleeping so trustfully in these woods as if she were lying in her own chamber? |
| 7864 | Who amongst monarchs in prosperity or adversity would not like to have Drupada with his relatives as an ally?"'' |
| 7864 | Who are we to thee? |
| 7864 | Who art thou and whose? |
| 7864 | Who art thou, O wicked woman in ascetic guise? |
| 7864 | Who can encounter Karna, the son of Radha, in fight, except Rama or Drona, or Kiriti, the son of Pandu? |
| 7864 | Who else among men than the Pandavas could exhibit such might? |
| 7864 | Who except Airavata would desire to move in the burning rays of the Sun? |
| 7864 | Who hath beaten thee?'' |
| 7864 | Who hath taken her away? |
| 7864 | Who is also the man that I saw? |
| 7864 | Who is there that will not be charmed with such an account, as it is sacred? |
| 7864 | Who is your father? |
| 7864 | Who shall be equal to him? |
| 7864 | Who shall believe in thy words? |
| 7864 | Who, besides, are these persons of celestial beauty sleeping here? |
| 7864 | Whom amongst my sons, shall I leave behind, and whom shall I carry with me? |
| 7864 | Whom shall I take with me? |
| 7864 | Whose daughter also was this Tilottama for whose love the maddened brothers killed each other? |
| 7864 | Whose is this beautiful region, who art thou and whose daughter?" |
| 7864 | Whose messenger art thou? |
| 7864 | Whose son also was endued with such energy? |
| 7864 | Whose son was that monarch who celebrated the snake- sacrifice? |
| 7864 | Why also Kasyapa-- a Brahman-- had the king of birds for a son? |
| 7864 | Why also did that illustrious and great Rishi Vasishtha himself who was acquainted with every rule of morality know a woman he should not have known? |
| 7864 | Why also didst thou commit such a dreadful sin?" |
| 7864 | Why also dost thou stay here? |
| 7864 | Why also was that ranger of the skies capable of going into every place at will and of mustering at will any measure of energy? |
| 7864 | Why also were the Vasus, the lords of the three worlds, condemned to be born amongst men? |
| 7864 | Why also, O best of Brahmanas, did Bhima of mighty arms and of the strength of ten thousand elephants, control his anger, though wronged? |
| 7864 | Why are they not reduced to annihilation? |
| 7864 | Why didst thou tempt him into solitude? |
| 7864 | Why dost thou desire the continuance of our former friendship? |
| 7864 | Why dost thou kill thy own children? |
| 7864 | Why dost thou then desire to bar us from it? |
| 7864 | Why dost thou weep in affliction? |
| 7864 | Why dost thou weep? |
| 7864 | Why dost thou, O mother, wish to sacrifice thy own child for the sake of another''s? |
| 7864 | Why dost thou, therefore, desire the revival of our former friendship? |
| 7864 | Why dost thou, therefore, desire( to revive our) former friendship?''" |
| 7864 | Why dost thou, therefore, strive to protect us at so much cost to thyself? |
| 7864 | Why hast thou been a ranger of the waters? |
| 7864 | Why hast thou come into the woods also? |
| 7864 | Why should I not also be anxious? |
| 7864 | Why should he, O king, speak a falsehood on such a serious occasion? |
| 7864 | Why should, therefore, these tigers among men, who are ever truthful, give thee wicked advice, especially when thou hast never injured them? |
| 7864 | Why then hast thou rashly done this unrighteous action through childishness? |
| 7864 | Why then is there a pupil of thine, the mighty son of the Nishada king, superior to me?"'' |
| 7864 | Why will he, by showing his wrath, make the Kauravas angry with him? |
| 7864 | Why, O prince, hath thy understanding become so?" |
| 7864 | Why, too, was he invincible of all creatures and unslayable of all? |
| 7864 | Widowed and masterless, with two children depending on me, how shall I, without thee, keep alive the pair, myself leading an honest life? |
| 7864 | Will he not, therefore, certainly destroy us by adopting adequate means? |
| 7864 | Will not sin touch me on that account? |
| 7864 | Will not the virtuous one grant me a private interview?"'' |
| 7864 | Will she abandon them now that they are in prosperity? |
| 7864 | Wilt thou consume us? |
| 7864 | Wilt thou not treat me so, because I have come hither of my own accord? |
| 7864 | Wouldst thou stand in the way of their full meals by acting as thou hast done? |
| 7864 | Ye are not, I hope, backward in paying homage unto those that deserve your homage?" |
| 7864 | Ye dwellers in heaven, is everything right with you?" |
| 7166 | A sister? |
| 7166 | About the fever fit of poesy? |
| 7166 | And Amulya Babu? |
| 7166 | And his fine? |
| 7166 | And may we venture to ask, further, what your share of the privation has been? |
| 7166 | And who may''she''be? |
| 7166 | And why, pray? 7166 And, brother,"she went on,"did I not warn you, it was not well to keep so much money in your room? |
| 7166 | Any trace of the dacoits? |
| 7166 | Are there not more precious things in life? |
| 7166 | Are these jewels so very precious? 7166 Are they not our kings? |
| 7166 | Are we to understand, Maharaja,said my visitors,"that the prosperity of the country does not interest you?" |
| 7166 | Are you come to advise flight? |
| 7166 | Are you counting your spoils inside? |
| 7166 | At any rate,interposed Sandip Babu,"why should we not follow suit? |
| 7166 | Bimala,said I,"why should I seek to keep you fast in this closed cage of mine? |
| 7166 | Bless my soul, Chota Rani,she exclaimed,"what has come upon you? |
| 7166 | But are you going out on any particular business? |
| 7166 | But are you not aware, sir, of what is behind all this? |
| 7166 | But have you had your dinner yet? |
| 7166 | But how am Ito get it? |
| 7166 | But how can that be? 7166 But how can you get through all this alone?" |
| 7166 | But how does all this apply to our work for the country? |
| 7166 | But how much? |
| 7166 | But what if afterwards I am held responsible? |
| 7166 | But what of Panchu? |
| 7166 | But why all this excitement? |
| 7166 | But why, then, did you try to return the money? |
| 7166 | But, Inspector,I said,"why are you badgering a respectable young gentleman like Amulya Babu?" |
| 7166 | Can man ever give as woman can? |
| 7166 | Can one ever finish a subject with words? |
| 7166 | Can you not get it out of the treasury? |
| 7166 | Could you not get his boat sunk? |
| 7166 | Did you not promise me you would have a sleep? |
| 7166 | Do n''t you know that the dear old man has got a wife and children and that he is..."Where are we to find men who have no wives and children? |
| 7166 | Do we not see before our very eyes how things, of which we never even dreamt of sowing the seed, are sprouting up on every side? 7166 Do you know, Sister Rani,"said Amulya,"I have had a quarrel with Sandip Babu over that six thousand rupees he took from you? |
| 7166 | Do you not know that I come to worship? 7166 Do you not see what pleasure it gives him? |
| 7166 | Do you really suppose I spend sleepless nights for fear of being robbed by you? |
| 7166 | Do you think I am not going with you? |
| 7166 | Does it not rather show,interposed a Master of Arts,"that trading in slavery is inherent in man-- a fundamental fact of his nature?" |
| 7166 | Does she not know that there are losses which no security can make good, either in this world or in the next? |
| 7166 | For fear of the Mussulmans, or is there any other fear you have to threaten me with? |
| 7166 | For what fault? |
| 7166 | Forcibly? |
| 7166 | Go? 7166 Gone where?" |
| 7166 | Has not Amulya gone, then? |
| 7166 | Has not the pressure of society cramped them into pettiness and crookedness? 7166 Have you been there all these days?" |
| 7166 | Have you brought Kasim here? |
| 7166 | Have you taken that jewel- box from my trunk? |
| 7166 | Have you then really no such thing as fear? |
| 7166 | Have you yet wasted so much as a glance on what was happening to them? 7166 He said he had orders...""Whose orders?" |
| 7166 | His burnt bale of cloth? |
| 7166 | How am I to get it? |
| 7166 | How am I to know? |
| 7166 | How can the__ zamindar__ realize that if he becomes my tenant? |
| 7166 | How could you let him go? |
| 7166 | How is it, sir, you have not yet retired? |
| 7166 | How will you do it? |
| 7166 | If I could read the book, why not Bimala too? 7166 Indeed? |
| 7166 | Is anything wanting, then, in the love we have here at home? |
| 7166 | Is not his money yours as well? |
| 7166 | Is not such coercion of the individual will seen in other countries too? |
| 7166 | Is not the market yours? |
| 7166 | Is that all? |
| 7166 | Is the Maharaja a thief, or a robber,the Bara Rani flared up,"that he should be set upon so by the police? |
| 7166 | Is the thing which happens the only truth? |
| 7166 | Is there a greater force than greed? 7166 Is there any country, sir,"pursued the history student,"where submission to Government is not due to fear?" |
| 7166 | Is there any example of this in history? |
| 7166 | Is there no one else for whom I could be making them? |
| 7166 | Kasim? 7166 Money? |
| 7166 | Must it be tomorrow? |
| 7166 | My wife--Does that amount to an argument, much less the truth? |
| 7166 | Not had your dinner yet? 7166 Oh dear,"she exclaimed,"has it come to this that you must make cakes for your own birthday?" |
| 7166 | Oh, our artless little Chota Rani!--straight as a schoolmaster''s rod, eh? 7166 On whom?" |
| 7166 | Queen,he asked,"can you give me another?" |
| 7166 | So Amulya and I are separate in your eyes? 7166 So exit Sandip for the second time, I suppose?" |
| 7166 | So the money is wanted for the use of your patriots? |
| 7166 | So you think Amulya will not tell me? |
| 7166 | So you trust Amulya more than you trust me? 7166 So you want to make trouble to prevent trouble?" |
| 7166 | Tell me truly, Amulya, swear by me, where did you get this money? |
| 7166 | That may hardly be possible, but why? |
| 7166 | The Bara Rani? |
| 7166 | The special- talk business not yet over? |
| 7166 | To Calcutta? |
| 7166 | Well, even if the drawback is only on my side, why should n''t you help to remove it? |
| 7166 | Well, what do you say? |
| 7166 | What I want to say is this: Why not try to build up something? 7166 What can you do there?" |
| 7166 | What do I care for my jewels? |
| 7166 | What do we want with so much, Sandip Babu? |
| 7166 | What do you mean,I exclaimed,"by being a witness on this or that side? |
| 7166 | What do you mean? |
| 7166 | What do you specially like, Amulya? |
| 7166 | What do you think, doctor? |
| 7166 | What do you want with it, sister? |
| 7166 | What do you want with that seat? |
| 7166 | What does this mean? |
| 7166 | What happened to the cloth? |
| 7166 | What harm if you did have a wholesome fear of me? 7166 What harm?" |
| 7166 | What harm? |
| 7166 | What has happened to your key? |
| 7166 | What has your book to do with__ Swadeshi__? |
| 7166 | What if they get in there? 7166 What is all this for?" |
| 7166 | What is fifty thousand? |
| 7166 | What is it then that you do want? |
| 7166 | What is it you wanted to tell me, Sandip Babu? |
| 7166 | What is that? |
| 7166 | What is the matter? |
| 7166 | What is the matter? |
| 7166 | What is the use of being angry with me? |
| 7166 | What is the use of so much? |
| 7166 | What is there so entertaining about it? |
| 7166 | What is this about both of you going off to Calcutta tomorrow? 7166 What is this matter,"I asked,"you are wanting to tell me about?" |
| 7166 | What is to be done? |
| 7166 | What mad idea is this of yours? |
| 7166 | What made you do all this, Amulya? |
| 7166 | What makes you realize that all of a sudden? |
| 7166 | What makes you suppose that artists need no teachers? |
| 7166 | What of that? 7166 What other truths can there be?" |
| 7166 | What terrible thing have you done, Amulya? |
| 7166 | What''s the news, Jata? |
| 7166 | What, then, is your plan? |
| 7166 | What, then, would be the right thing to do? |
| 7166 | Whatever are you doing, brother dear? |
| 7166 | Whatever shall we do? |
| 7166 | When do you want it then? |
| 7166 | Where from? |
| 7166 | Where have you kept it, then? |
| 7166 | Where is the money to come from? |
| 7166 | Where is the noose with which you can catch me? |
| 7166 | Where on earth do you see all that? |
| 7166 | Where was it found? |
| 7166 | Where was the time for him to marry again? |
| 7166 | Where, then, is this wonderful soul? |
| 7166 | Whither away, Chota Rani? |
| 7166 | Who am I, that I should dare do such a thing? 7166 Who denies it?" |
| 7166 | Who did you say had sent for me? |
| 7166 | Who else was there? |
| 7166 | Who gave you the order? |
| 7166 | Who is it, then? |
| 7166 | Who is there? |
| 7166 | Who wants fruit? |
| 7166 | Why allow such trifles to upset you? |
| 7166 | Why be so clumsy as to leave any loophole for responsibility? 7166 Why burn them?" |
| 7166 | Why did you not send me word when Brother Nikhil came in? |
| 7166 | Why has your Thako been calling poor Khema names? |
| 7166 | Why is it possible,I asked,"to use the Mussulmans thus, as tools against us? |
| 7166 | Why need you hear it? 7166 Why not say plainly that you will not risk your money?" |
| 7166 | Why not take it out and send it to the treasury while you have it in mind? |
| 7166 | Why not? |
| 7166 | Why should they loot our house? |
| 7166 | Why, Sister Rani? |
| 7166 | Why, did you want him for anything? |
| 7166 | Why, then, are you troubling to destroy the illusion? |
| 7166 | Why, what harm can come to you? |
| 7166 | Why, what is the matter? |
| 7166 | Will you not tell him not to go? |
| 7166 | Will you then be the only one, Maharaja, to put obstacles in the way of what the country would achieve? |
| 7166 | Wo n''t you bear witness to the burning of this man''s cloth? |
| 7166 | Would you thwart me in my resolve? |
| 7166 | You here? |
| 7166 | You think you will gain the mastery over me? |
| 7166 | You want to know, do you? |
| 7166 | You want to teach me a lesson by trusting me? 7166 You, Amulya?" |
| 7166 | Your jewel- box? |
| 7166 | A matinà © e, eh?" |
| 7166 | A sorry exchange, I suppose you would call it?" |
| 7166 | After a long pause she said:"But how am Ito get his money?" |
| 7166 | After that? |
| 7166 | All of a sudden Sandip Babu turned to me with the question:"What do__ you__ say to this?" |
| 7166 | Am I a drifting log to be caught up at any and every obstacle? |
| 7166 | Am I a man, that you should hoodwink me?" |
| 7166 | Am I made of words? |
| 7166 | Am I merely a book with a covering of flesh and blood? |
| 7166 | Am I taking them? |
| 7166 | Amulya turned to go, but before he was out of sight I called him back and asked:"Have you a mother, Amulya?" |
| 7166 | And Bee? |
| 7166 | And Bimala? |
| 7166 | And I, a woman-- of his mother''s sex-- how could I hand him poison, just because he asked for it? |
| 7166 | And how can I have the power to refuse to take the money? |
| 7166 | And then also, what is this getting? |
| 7166 | And then? |
| 7166 | And what of the day when we should have to come back here? |
| 7166 | Another day my master came to me and said:"Why do n''t you two go up to Darjeeling for a change? |
| 7166 | Anyhow, why trouble to blush for me, since I am shameless?" |
| 7166 | Anyway, why lose time in trying your magic weapons?" |
| 7166 | Are men like women? |
| 7166 | Are you not mine?" |
| 7166 | As I was coming away, he exclaimed:"May I trouble you for a trifle?" |
| 7166 | As for Khema, where are the hussy''s manners to go and disturb you when you are engaged? |
| 7166 | As my husband entered the room, Sandip exclaimed:"I say, Nikhil, do n''t you keep Browning among your books here? |
| 7166 | As we entered the room Sandip asked:"What was that box Amulya carried away?" |
| 7166 | Ashamed? |
| 7166 | At first I felt scruples; for is it not the habit of man''s mind to be in purposeless conflict with itself? |
| 7166 | Bee frowned a little as she murmured:"What makes you wish that?" |
| 7166 | Bee was silent for a while and then gravely said:"Is it not a part of human nature to try and rise superior to itself?" |
| 7166 | Bimala was still flushed, her eyes clouded, her accents thick, as she replied:"You poor? |
| 7166 | Bimala''s Story XIV Who could have thought that so much would happen in this one life? |
| 7166 | But after this how was Ito go on living all by myself? |
| 7166 | But can even Nature''s nursing heal the open wound, into which our accumulated differences have broken out? |
| 7166 | But can freedom-- empty freedom-- be given and taken so easily as all that? |
| 7166 | But can one carry on a quarrel with a storm? |
| 7166 | But do you not see one thing: how these political bags of theirs are bursting with lies and treacheries, breaking their backs under their weight?" |
| 7166 | But for what? |
| 7166 | But he cried,''What infatuation is this of yours? |
| 7166 | But how am Ito bear this terrible mercy of my God? |
| 7166 | But how can I offer those which have been stolen away from me?" |
| 7166 | But how can you elude my watchfulness? |
| 7166 | But how on earth am I to mention money after the high flight we have just taken? |
| 7166 | But how to get that fifty thousand rupees out of the clutches of those iron bars? |
| 7166 | But is strength mere display of muscularity? |
| 7166 | But suppose they do not?" |
| 7166 | But tell us, pray, finally, are you determined not to oust foreign articles from your market?" |
| 7166 | But theft is never worship-- how then can I offer this gold? |
| 7166 | But then what is this force? |
| 7166 | But there was none to gainsay her-- for was not this the custom of the house? |
| 7166 | But was he not wounded?" |
| 7166 | But was not also this very thing I had done a robbing of the whole world-- not only of money, but of trust, of righteousness? |
| 7166 | But what has since been its actual story? |
| 7166 | But what is the use of it all? |
| 7166 | But what was it that happened? |
| 7166 | But where am I, and what am I about, letting day after day of golden opportunity slip by? |
| 7166 | But where was the unity in this heap of barren ashes? |
| 7166 | But where were cheap Indian woollens to be had? |
| 7166 | But why all these arguments? |
| 7166 | But why are we arguing about these things? |
| 7166 | But why be frightened even of that? |
| 7166 | But why did not my husband compel me to go with him to Calcutta? |
| 7166 | But why return? |
| 7166 | But why should he have left the rest of the money lying about?" |
| 7166 | But why should the Inspector alone be regaled with cakes? |
| 7166 | But why this bonfire business?" |
| 7166 | But, I ask you, where do you find this''answering''in history?" |
| 7166 | By what power? |
| 7166 | Ca n''t you humour them? |
| 7166 | Ca n''t you recognize that there is such a thing as feeling?" |
| 7166 | Can I ever forget it? |
| 7166 | Can I not be born over again? |
| 7166 | Can force prevail against Truth? |
| 7166 | Can it be that all this multitude is quieted with only a lie? |
| 7166 | Can not you get over the barrier of her name after such a long acquaintance? |
| 7166 | Can not you realize that she loves you?" |
| 7166 | Can one imprison a whole personality within that name? |
| 7166 | Can there be any real happiness for a woman in merely feeling that she has power over a man? |
| 7166 | Can you not do it, dear?" |
| 7166 | Could I have given her too rude a shock, leaving her assailed with doubts and wanting to learn her lesson afresh from the schoolmaster? |
| 7166 | Could I not be allowed to suffer alone without inviting all this multitude to share my punishment? |
| 7166 | Could I not go back to the beginning? |
| 7166 | Could it be that his outstretched hands had really been directed towards my feet? |
| 7166 | Could it be that my husband had missed the key of the safe, and the Bara Rani had assembled all the servants to help him to hunt for it? |
| 7166 | Could they have been discussing my deed in their meeting place? |
| 7166 | Did I not learn that from Sandip himself, and was I not able in the light of this knowledge to despise all else in my world? |
| 7166 | Did he wish to make up now for neglecting me so long? |
| 7166 | Do I not know how well he loves me? |
| 7166 | Do I not know that thus you can not but pine and droop?" |
| 7166 | Do I not see that none shall stand in the way of your desires? |
| 7166 | Do I really desire emancipation? |
| 7166 | Do they want to tell me now that all this was false? |
| 7166 | Do you get them up by heart, beforehand?" |
| 7166 | Do you know that the boy is the shadow of my shadow, the echo of my echo-- that he is nothing if I am not at his side?" |
| 7166 | Do you know that your weakness is weakening your neighbouring__ zamindars__ also?" |
| 7166 | Do you know, sister, he has not spent a pice out of those sovereigns he took from you? |
| 7166 | Do you know, we always insist on Sandip Babu travelling First Class? |
| 7166 | Do you mean you are never coming back home?" |
| 7166 | Do you not know that in the immense cauldrons, where vast political developments are simmering, untruths are the main ingredients?" |
| 7166 | Do you not think so?" |
| 7166 | Do you remember old Dakshina? |
| 7166 | Do you remember that contest of ours over the translation of those lines from Browning? |
| 7166 | Do you remember this comb? |
| 7166 | Do you say I shall be uttering lies? |
| 7166 | Do you take me for one of your retinue?" |
| 7166 | Does anybody know anybody else in this world?" |
| 7166 | Each has been suited to his taste, so why complain? |
| 7166 | Five thousand is it? |
| 7166 | For you see, do you not, that I can not stand by and see his motherless little ones sent out into the streets?'' |
| 7166 | For, who is the bridegroom? |
| 7166 | From Sandip''s dry throat there came a muffled cry:"Whither would you flee, Queen?" |
| 7166 | God can create new things, but has even He the power to create afresh that which has been destroyed? |
| 7166 | Had I called him? |
| 7166 | Had I ever wanted this-- had I ever been waiting or hoping for any such thing? |
| 7166 | Had I not risen, all in one moment, from my nothingness to a height above everything? |
| 7166 | Had I then misunderstood him? |
| 7166 | Had any vestige of a veil of decency been left for me? |
| 7166 | Had he then come like a streak of light from the setting sun, only to be gone for ever? |
| 7166 | Had not so tremendous a man as Sandip fallen helplessly at my feet, like a wave of the mighty sea breaking on the shore? |
| 7166 | Had the Creator created me afresh, I wondered? |
| 7166 | Have I not often twitted Nikhil that they who walk in the paths of restraint have never known what sacrifice is? |
| 7166 | Have I not seen how my presence pours fresh life into him time after time? |
| 7166 | Have I not told you that, in you, I visualize the__ Shakti__ of our country? |
| 7166 | Have you also a book?" |
| 7166 | Have you been getting enough sleep?" |
| 7166 | Have you not heard of the Pachur case?" |
| 7166 | Have you not read history? |
| 7166 | Have you sent off that money you gave me to the Calcutta bank?" |
| 7166 | He feels the danger threatening his home, and yet why does he not turn me out? |
| 7166 | His eldest boy and girl nestled up to him, crying:"Where have you been all this time, father?" |
| 7166 | How can I tell how much he has deprived me of? |
| 7166 | How could I fail to see the hand of Providence in this? |
| 7166 | How could she again admit defeat? |
| 7166 | How could we help thinking that it was all supernatural? |
| 7166 | How dare they be so insolent? |
| 7166 | How else could she be happy? |
| 7166 | How little can you deprive me of, my love, after all? |
| 7166 | How long should they keep you cool with the wet towel of moral precepts?" |
| 7166 | How many years, how many ages, aeons, must pass before I can find my way back to that day of nine years ago? |
| 7166 | How much money?" |
| 7166 | How on earth did I manage to let my good fortune escape me, and spoil my life so? |
| 7166 | How then could I burst on him with this stupendous news? |
| 7166 | How then did you bring yourself to offer them to the Goddess? |
| 7166 | How was he to be saved? |
| 7166 | However did he manage to get through his meal so soon?" |
| 7166 | However, I must shut my eyes to that for the present, for is he not shouting__ Bande Mataram__ as lustily as I am? |
| 7166 | I am doomed to death myself, must I desecrate my country with my impious touch? |
| 7166 | I asked them:"Who is there among you that can cut off a leg of that goat, alive, with this knife, and bring it to me?" |
| 7166 | I could not keep from joining in:"You think this excitement is only a fire of drunkenness, but does not drunkenness, up to a point, give strength?" |
| 7166 | I felt somewhat foolish as I asked him:"And where have you been all this while, sir?" |
| 7166 | I must confess there was something in me which... what shall I say? |
| 7166 | I must not allow the pressure of too much greed to flatten out the reed, for then, as I fear, music will give place to the questions"Why?" |
| 7166 | I say, Robber Queen,"she called out to me,"are you taking stock of your loot?" |
| 7166 | I should not try to fetter my life''s companion with my ideas, but play the joyous pipes of my love and say:"Do you love me? |
| 7166 | I strained his feet to my bosom-- oh, why could not their impress remain there for ever? |
| 7166 | I threw myself down and sobbed:"What is the end of all this, what is the end?" |
| 7166 | I took up the spirit of his remark as I dropped my voice to reply:"Why even then should we not meet?" |
| 7166 | I was silent for a while and then asked again:"Could he not possibly stay a day longer?" |
| 7166 | I went up to him and placing my hand on his head asked him:"What is your trouble, Amulya?" |
| 7166 | I would get angry and say:"If you feel generous, make gifts by all means, but why allow yourself to be robbed?" |
| 7166 | If Bimal should say she is not mine, what care I where my Society wife may be? |
| 7166 | If I pity her and save her from her sorrows, what then was the purpose of my being born a man? |
| 7166 | If she says:"No, I am myself"--am I to reply:"How can that be? |
| 7166 | If the Dark which sounded the flute should lead to destruction, why trouble about the hereafter? |
| 7166 | If they go to law, we must retaliate by burning down their granaries!--What startles you, Amulya? |
| 7166 | If we must lose our all, let us lose it: what is it worth after all? |
| 7166 | If we took them as true, even for a moment, where would be our appetite, our sleep? |
| 7166 | If, like a toy paper- boat, she be swept along into the muddy waters of the gutter-- would I not also...? |
| 7166 | In the midst of the immense, age- long concourse of humanity, what is Bimal to you? |
| 7166 | In the springtime of your kingdom, my Queen, My meeting with you had its own songs, But has not also my leave- taking any gift to offer you? |
| 7166 | Is friendship by itself a crime? |
| 7166 | Is it not because we have fashioned them into such with our own intolerance? |
| 7166 | Is it quite settled about your going tomorrow?" |
| 7166 | Is it right that ours should be the only market in all Bengal which allows foreign goods?" |
| 7166 | Is it the fate of the estate that is worrying you? |
| 7166 | Is it then your command that this money be replaced?" |
| 7166 | Is not all that each one has yours? |
| 7166 | Is not that best, Queen?" |
| 7166 | Is the heart''s worship to be shut out like a stray cur?" |
| 7166 | Is this power of yours to be kept veiled in a zenana? |
| 7166 | It is like setting a fish free in the sky-- for how can I move or live outside the atmosphere of loving care which has always sustained me? |
| 7166 | It is not too late? |
| 7166 | It was Buddha who conquered the world, not Alexander-- this is untrue when stated in dry prose-- oh when shall we be able to sing it? |
| 7166 | It was one of the__ Swadeshi__ combs you brought for me...""But what is all this for, Sister Rani? |
| 7166 | Jealous of whom, pray?" |
| 7166 | Must strength have no scruples in treading the weak underfoot? |
| 7166 | Must this continue to the end of my days? |
| 7166 | My master came to me that day and said:"Is it necessary to detain Sandip here any longer?" |
| 7166 | My portrait now reposes next to Nikhil''s, for are not the two of us old friends? |
| 7166 | Now it looks as if it were time for him to quit... O you little demon, do your glances never fall, by chance, on his agonized face?" |
| 7166 | Now that I know it concerns only me, what after all can be its value? |
| 7166 | O God, why need my expiation have such pomp and circumstance? |
| 7166 | Of what value are that orchid and that niche in my bedroom? |
| 7166 | Oh why has God made man such a mixed creature? |
| 7166 | Oh, why am I not dead? |
| 7166 | Oh, why does this outer world insult the heart so? |
| 7166 | On what perilous adventure had I sent this only son of his mother? |
| 7166 | Once she comes panting to say:"Oh, brother, have you heard? |
| 7166 | One day, he happened to awake, and smiled as he asked me:"What is that, Bimala? |
| 7166 | Only five thousand rupees? |
| 7166 | Or would he simply take me to be an ordinary, domestic woman? |
| 7166 | Panchu was not excessively pleased-- was there then no such thing as charity on earth? |
| 7166 | Sandip again affected surprise as he said:"Must there always be some matter? |
| 7166 | Sandip''s Story IV When I read these pages of the story of my life I seriously question myself: Is this Sandip? |
| 7166 | Shall I ever recover, as from a delirium, and forget it all; or am I to be dragged to depths from which there can be no escape in this life? |
| 7166 | Shall I tell the whole truth? |
| 7166 | She sat by my bed after I was stretched on it, and smiled at Bimal as she said:"Give me one of your pans, Chotie darling-- what? |
| 7166 | She would scold me, saying:"Why are you all plaguing him so? |
| 7166 | Should I then get back my seat at the head? |
| 7166 | So then these jewels are mine?" |
| 7166 | Supposing I buy it up and then keep him on as my tenant?" |
| 7166 | Tell me what about yourself?" |
| 7166 | That was only natural, for had I not stepped into my good fortune by a mere chance, and without deserving it? |
| 7166 | The Bara Rani came and asked me:"What is the meaning, brother, of all these books being packed up and sent off in box- loads?" |
| 7166 | The method? |
| 7166 | The money has been held up because the country wants it-- who could have the power to take it away from her to the bank? |
| 7166 | The morning light, like the love of the blue sky, is lavished upon the earth... Why can not I sing? |
| 7166 | Then as I looked about me, where was it-- the tree of plenty? |
| 7166 | Then whom shall I blame? |
| 7166 | There is at present no room in her mind for the question"why?" |
| 7166 | There must be great excitement in the Police Office-- whose are the jewels?--where did he get them? |
| 7166 | They were sarcastic:"Why, Maharaja, will the loss be too much for you?" |
| 7166 | This morning I am...""Waiting for Amulya?" |
| 7166 | To whom could he be going to return that money? |
| 7166 | To whom was I to explain that the Rani herself had been weaving all this network of trouble, and had got caught in it, too? |
| 7166 | Truth? |
| 7166 | Under what bush? |
| 7166 | Was I making any difference between yours and mine? |
| 7166 | Was I not awaiting my fate? |
| 7166 | Was I not removed from the plane in which right and wrong, and the feelings of others, have to be considered? |
| 7166 | Was I the god of her worship that I should have any qualms? |
| 7166 | Was it because of the husband''s pride of possession over his wife? |
| 7166 | Was it only to show his supernatural sleight of hand? |
| 7166 | Was not I good for something more than only five thousand rupees? |
| 7166 | Was not this our House, which she had kept under her sheltering care through all her trials and troubles? |
| 7166 | Was the credit due to me that my husband did not touch liquor, nor squander his manhood in the markets of woman''s flesh? |
| 7166 | Was this, then, my truer self? |
| 7166 | Were not men naturally inclined to plunge downwards? |
| 7166 | What about the gang of armed men?..." |
| 7166 | What about the urgent immediate? |
| 7166 | What am I to them but a meadow flower in the path of a torrent in flood? |
| 7166 | What are my caskets full of jewellery for? |
| 7166 | What can they do to you?" |
| 7166 | What charm did I know to soothe the wild and wandering mind of men? |
| 7166 | What could have possessed me, I angrily wondered, to appear before him in such an absurd way? |
| 7166 | What do I care what people may think of me? |
| 7166 | What does it matter? |
| 7166 | What else had she with which to express her loving worship? |
| 7166 | What favour could she be wanting to beg, seated like this at my door? |
| 7166 | What good will this extinction of me be to Sandip? |
| 7166 | What harm if I confess that I have something lacking in me? |
| 7166 | What has been my sin that I should be scourged so, bound hand and foot?" |
| 7166 | What has happened? |
| 7166 | What have I to do with the mirror, or even the image? |
| 7166 | What if I am unworthy? |
| 7166 | What if business is a bit neglected? |
| 7166 | What if he was fearless? |
| 7166 | What if the wound does eventually heal?--can the devastation it has wrought ever be made good? |
| 7166 | What if your money is lost, does not that hurt me? |
| 7166 | What if, on pulling out the inside drawer, I should find the rolls of gold there, just as before? |
| 7166 | What incense of worship, what music of passion, what flowers of my spring and of my autumn, have I not offered up at its shrine? |
| 7166 | What is a wife? |
| 7166 | What is it? |
| 7166 | What is that answer to be? |
| 7166 | What is the use of straining to keep up my pride? |
| 7166 | What is there left of you that I do not know to the very bottom? |
| 7166 | What must the messenger have thought? |
| 7166 | What need had Ito volunteer an explanation? |
| 7166 | What other province of India has succeeded in giving such wonderful visual expression to the ideal of its quest? |
| 7166 | What pleasure can that be to me?" |
| 7166 | What power have they to belittle me, to put me to shame? |
| 7166 | What responsibility have they of their own?" |
| 7166 | What rigour of penance is there which can serve to bring me once more, as a bride adorned for her husband, to my place upon that same bridal seat? |
| 7166 | What should I do in the dust of Calcutta, away from it? |
| 7166 | What stood in the way? |
| 7166 | What was the use of arguing? |
| 7166 | What was this? |
| 7166 | What was to be done next? |
| 7166 | What will you do with him now? |
| 7166 | What__ are__ you doing?" |
| 7166 | Whatever did you spend all that money on?" |
| 7166 | When I came out my sister- in- law railed at me:"How many times are you going to dress today?" |
| 7166 | When do we start?" |
| 7166 | When she saw me passing in the distance she cried:"Have you heard the news, Chota Rani?" |
| 7166 | When was the ceremony to be held and where? |
| 7166 | When will come the time, I wondered, for the purification of the Brahmins themselves who can accept such offerings? |
| 7166 | When will you be going there?" |
| 7166 | Whence came foaming into me this surging flood of glory? |
| 7166 | Where is its solidity? |
| 7166 | Where was that former self of mine? |
| 7166 | Where was the place? |
| 7166 | Where will it all end, I asked myself? |
| 7166 | Where?" |
| 7166 | Who am I, what am I, in its presence? |
| 7166 | Who can hide your fire under your home- roof? |
| 7166 | Who could bear my company day and night without a break? |
| 7166 | Who could have believed that they would attack our treasury, either?" |
| 7166 | Who could it be? |
| 7166 | Who else could have come into this room? |
| 7166 | Who is there that can stay your progress? |
| 7166 | Who says that the gods do not show themselves to mortal men? |
| 7166 | Who says"Truth shall Triumph"? |
| 7166 | Who was I to stop her? |
| 7166 | Who will eat them? |
| 7166 | Who? |
| 7166 | Whose is the money? |
| 7166 | Why am I allowing my life to become entangled with Bimala''s? |
| 7166 | Why are they all so angry with you? |
| 7166 | Why can not the stricken one be kept far away from the rest of the world? |
| 7166 | Why did I fail to think of this? |
| 7166 | Why do not men change wholly when they change? |
| 7166 | Why does not my voice find a word, some audible cry, which would be like a sacred spell to my country for its fire initiation? |
| 7166 | Why have you been packing up all these things?" |
| 7166 | Why need I bother about their plight? |
| 7166 | Why not stand out aloof in the highway of the universe, and feel yourself to be part of the all? |
| 7166 | Why put everybody out?" |
| 7166 | Why should not its glory flash from my forehead with visible brilliance? |
| 7166 | Why should there be only one? |
| 7166 | Why should they put up with such tyranny, and why should we let them?" |
| 7166 | Why should we suppose that they will do so just because we have become frantic?" |
| 7166 | Why this sudden reverence?" |
| 7166 | Why"muddy"? |
| 7166 | Why, then, trouble to preach patriotism?" |
| 7166 | Why? |
| 7166 | Why? |
| 7166 | Why?" |
| 7166 | Why?" |
| 7166 | Will all the wounds of my home life then be still as fresh as ever? |
| 7166 | Will you give him the coup de grâce, or keep him in your cage? |
| 7166 | Will you not bear witness to the truth?" |
| 7166 | Will you not take a seat?" |
| 7166 | With this he looked up at Bimala and asked:"Do you not think so too?" |
| 7166 | With which he... but why, oh why, do I go back to all that? |
| 7166 | Would I not rather lay down my life to help it?" |
| 7166 | Would Sandip Babu find the__ Shakti__ of the Motherland manifest in me? |
| 7166 | Would my shoulders, I wondered, be broad enough to stand its shock, or would it not leave me overthrown, with my face in the dust? |
| 7166 | Would not a curse come upon me if I deserted it and went off to town? |
| 7166 | Would you now take it back?" |
| 7166 | Wounds must be bandaged-- can we not bandage our wound with our love, so that the day may come when its scar will no longer be visible? |
| 7166 | XIII What is this? |
| 7166 | XVI"The money, Queen?" |
| 7166 | You are burning in every vein with life- fire-- do I not know it? |
| 7166 | You are rich; why not buy it up and burn it?" |
| 7166 | You do n''t? |
| 7166 | You have three shelves in your sitting- room full of..."Sandip Babu broke in:"Do you know what they are? |
| 7166 | You want it tomorrow? |
| 7166 | Your wife? |
| 7166 | [ 25]"Well, Junior Rani, are you turned into a wooden doll? |
| 7166 | [ 30] Could this be my Bimal of old, my proud, sensitive Bimal? |
| 7166 | [ 6] One day I said to him:"What do I want with the outside world?" |
| 7166 | __"Whatever do you mean, Amulya?" |
| 7166 | had I not said"Why not?" |
| 7166 | into what fresh entanglement was the poor boy rushing? |
| 7166 | student smiled a crooked smile, as he asked:"May we enquire what you are actually doing to help?" |
| 7166 | to Sandip just in the same way? |
| 17455 | About what? |
| 17455 | After that did the Brahman dismiss her? |
| 17455 | After that what happened? |
| 17455 | Am I wearing any gold ornaments that I should be the lady of the Babu''s house? |
| 17455 | And are you happy? |
| 17455 | But why should it be? |
| 17455 | But,replied Srish,"can you stop the marriage?" |
| 17455 | Can I go alone? |
| 17455 | Could any one show me the house of Haro Mani_ Boisnavi_, of this village? |
| 17455 | Did he tell you anything of Surja Mukhi? |
| 17455 | Did you find Surja Mukhi? 17455 Did you not meet the_ Brahmachari_?" |
| 17455 | Do n''t you remember the schoolmaster''s marriage to a goddess? 17455 Do you ask what do I want with the girl? |
| 17455 | Do you not know? |
| 17455 | Do you think I can go alone? |
| 17455 | Does any one know when he will return? |
| 17455 | Does no one else love you? |
| 17455 | Does not my brother love you? |
| 17455 | Has not the Babu told you? |
| 17455 | Have you ever seen your mother- in- law? |
| 17455 | Have you heard of this so soon? |
| 17455 | Have you not gone far enough in vice? 17455 How is that, Ma? |
| 17455 | How long is it since he left? |
| 17455 | I have scorched myself, why do I not die? |
| 17455 | In picking up a little girl, have you forgotten me? 17455 Is a bare''no''all you can say? |
| 17455 | Is he ill? 17455 Is this woman''s nature?" |
| 17455 | Is your liver out of order? |
| 17455 | It can not be; why do I think of that? 17455 Kunda, why do you weep? |
| 17455 | May I see the letter? |
| 17455 | Need you ask? |
| 17455 | No; what is the matter? |
| 17455 | Oh, Satu Babu, can you tell me why men go to office? |
| 17455 | She did not take a farthing from home; how did she live? |
| 17455 | Since I love you and you love me, shall we not go together? |
| 17455 | Some days fasting, some days begging-- are you mad? |
| 17455 | Speak, brother,said Debendra;"why are you angry to- day? |
| 17455 | That I know not; but, from reading her letter, I perceive it is gone-- else how could a woman write such a letter? |
| 17455 | Then I may sit down? |
| 17455 | Then why did you come? |
| 17455 | Then why do I suffer on this account? |
| 17455 | Then why do you go? |
| 17455 | Then why not? 17455 There are but a few more days; if I give away Kunda where can I abide?" |
| 17455 | Those to whom life brings happiness may give up wine; but what have I to gain by living? |
| 17455 | Well, doctor, is there no medicine for that disease? |
| 17455 | What affairs? |
| 17455 | What are you talking about? |
| 17455 | What can I say? |
| 17455 | What did I say to her? |
| 17455 | What did she not say that day to Kunda Nandini Thakurani? 17455 What did you do?" |
| 17455 | What distance did she walk daily? |
| 17455 | What do you mean by Hama? 17455 What do you say?" |
| 17455 | What do you want? |
| 17455 | What flower? 17455 What has happened?" |
| 17455 | What has happened? |
| 17455 | What have I to gain by giving it up? 17455 What have you done?" |
| 17455 | What is it? |
| 17455 | What is the matter? 17455 What is the name of that Brahman? |
| 17455 | What is this for? |
| 17455 | What is this? 17455 What is? |
| 17455 | What more is there to say? |
| 17455 | What trouble have I taken? |
| 17455 | What, drinking? 17455 What? |
| 17455 | What? |
| 17455 | When will you come back? |
| 17455 | Where Hira is, what cause have I for fear? |
| 17455 | Where did you get this instrument? |
| 17455 | Where is the milk? |
| 17455 | Where is the robbery? |
| 17455 | Where shall we go? |
| 17455 | Wherefore? |
| 17455 | Who are you, woman? |
| 17455 | Who is it? |
| 17455 | Who is your mistress? |
| 17455 | Who knows? |
| 17455 | Who will look after the luggage? |
| 17455 | Whose destiny could be better than mine was? 17455 Why am I invited?" |
| 17455 | Why do you drive me away? |
| 17455 | Why do you go away? |
| 17455 | Why do you still ask about me? 17455 Why had I forgotten it? |
| 17455 | Why have I preserved my life,she asked herself,"with the desire to see my husband? |
| 17455 | Why should you weep for that? |
| 17455 | Why so? |
| 17455 | Why talk of it now? |
| 17455 | Why, Kunda? 17455 Why?" |
| 17455 | Will you go? |
| 17455 | Would it not be better to refrain from these excesses? |
| 17455 | Would you like to have the_ Thakur Jamai_? 17455 Yes; what evil words did you use to her?" |
| 17455 | Yet why a bearer? |
| 17455 | You love my brother dearly, do n''t you? |
| 17455 | Yours is, especially,said his cousin,"Have you fever to- day?" |
| 17455 | A quarrel with some friend? |
| 17455 | A woman replied,"Do I hear the_ Thakur''s_ voice? |
| 17455 | After a pause Kunda asked,"What shall I tell you?" |
| 17455 | After a while the woman opened her eyes; when Haro Mani said,"Where have you come from, mother?" |
| 17455 | After gazing at him some time, she said,"Do you not know me? |
| 17455 | After so many days''absence has he nothing to say to you?" |
| 17455 | Again Kamal asked,"Will you go? |
| 17455 | All the neighbours now, quoting an old song, said,"Where now is his pledge?" |
| 17455 | Am I not Debendra? |
| 17455 | And Nagendra, is this the stainless character you have preserved so long? |
| 17455 | Annoyed, Debendra said,"Why do you laugh?" |
| 17455 | Another design I have in my mind; will God permit me to carry it out? |
| 17455 | Anxiety about money? |
| 17455 | Are the English infallible? |
| 17455 | Are you a doctor, and do you ask that? |
| 17455 | Are you angry?" |
| 17455 | Are you not satisfied yet, that you wish to ruin that unprotected girl? |
| 17455 | Are you or I the greater?" |
| 17455 | Astonished, Debendra said,"What is the matter, Hira?" |
| 17455 | Astonished, Kousalya said:"When did I abuse any one?" |
| 17455 | At first Srish Chandra and Kamal Mani comforted Nagendra, saying,"She has never been accustomed to walk; how far can she go? |
| 17455 | At first she thought of a lover; but then, whose lover? |
| 17455 | At its close Kamal said,"Now what are your orders?" |
| 17455 | At last, throwing down the lamp, he began to sing,"Who are you? |
| 17455 | At length Surja Mukhi saw who it was, and exclaimed,"Is it not Kunda?" |
| 17455 | At length she resolved that he slept, for if he were dead what would become of her? |
| 17455 | At length, after speaking of the abuse she had received, she said--"Now what do you suppose I did?" |
| 17455 | At this offer Hira became very zealous, and asked,"When may I go to make inquiry?" |
| 17455 | Beauty, wealth, these are small matters; but in virtues, whose husband equals mine? |
| 17455 | Beauty? |
| 17455 | Because the Creator betrayed her, does she therefore wish to betray others? |
| 17455 | Brother, how do you know that it is opposed to morality? |
| 17455 | But even as she spoke, turning to look at the_ Boisnavi_, she could not finish her speech, but said instead:"Oh, ma, what_ Boisnavi_ are you?" |
| 17455 | But how can stars dispel the darkness of a moonless night? |
| 17455 | But now I know this was but the love of the eye; or else, when I have been only fifteen days married, why do I say,''Did I love her?'' |
| 17455 | But of what use to be ashamed? |
| 17455 | But what has made your granddaughter so jolly lately?" |
| 17455 | But why am I angry? |
| 17455 | But would it not have been well to think a little whether the charge was true? |
| 17455 | Calling the doctor, Surja Mukhi said--"The Babu is not well; why do you not give him medicine?" |
| 17455 | Can I live till he comes?" |
| 17455 | Can I not say whom? |
| 17455 | Can I take poison? |
| 17455 | Can I tell you what I have suffered? |
| 17455 | Can both be true?" |
| 17455 | Can they see me-- I who have wept so much? |
| 17455 | Can you not sing something else?" |
| 17455 | Can you take her? |
| 17455 | Champa asked,"Why do you stand thus?" |
| 17455 | Champa jestingly asked,"What do you see that you look into the sky a hundred times?" |
| 17455 | Champa said,"How can the dead return?" |
| 17455 | Could I be angry with him whom it is my joy to think upon? |
| 17455 | Could I go back there? |
| 17455 | Could I take it? |
| 17455 | Could any respectable man''s wife, hearing of such a stain, give refuge to the guilty person? |
| 17455 | Could delusion last longer? |
| 17455 | Could he set no one else this task? |
| 17455 | Debendra Datta? |
| 17455 | Debendra said,"Have you an umbrella?" |
| 17455 | Debendra said,"What, are you now also in the troop of old fools? |
| 17455 | Debendra, hearing the voice, called out noisily,"Who are you-- a male or female spirit?" |
| 17455 | Did I love her? |
| 17455 | Did you not go to Madhupur?" |
| 17455 | Did you not know of the talk about Tara Charan''s house? |
| 17455 | Do I know?" |
| 17455 | Do I not know how vexed you will be? |
| 17455 | Do you go willingly?" |
| 17455 | Do you not know that I always long for news of you? |
| 17455 | Do you not longer love me?" |
| 17455 | Do you think I am going to die? |
| 17455 | Does he love me? |
| 17455 | Does the good man become a star when he dies?" |
| 17455 | Except the Creator, who could enter into that child''s heart and discern the cause of his crying? |
| 17455 | For what fault had Nagendra thrust her from him? |
| 17455 | For what gain should I give up my independence? |
| 17455 | For what reward should I incur ill- fame? |
| 17455 | For whose voice is he listening at meal- times when he pauses in the act of carrying food to his mouth? |
| 17455 | From the Datta house-- where else? |
| 17455 | Gently he said,"Who are you? |
| 17455 | God cares for so many others-- would He not have cared for her? |
| 17455 | Greatly astonished, Champa asked,"Are you acquainted with the man and woman whose forms you saw in the sky?" |
| 17455 | Had it never occurred to him to ask himself what would become of Kunda when his summons came? |
| 17455 | Had you not heard that Debendra had been introduced to Kunda three years before? |
| 17455 | Hara Deb Ghosal wrote to Nagendra:"What has happened to you? |
| 17455 | Haridasi asked,"Why?" |
| 17455 | Haro Mani asked:"Who is this? |
| 17455 | Haro Mani said:"You still wear your bracelet; is your husband living?" |
| 17455 | Has the Babu said anything to you?" |
| 17455 | Have you lost your lawsuit? |
| 17455 | Have you not a spark of understanding? |
| 17455 | Have you taken offence with me? |
| 17455 | He called out,"Who are you lying by the roadside?" |
| 17455 | He had fallen senseless on the floor, then whence came the pillow on which his head was resting? |
| 17455 | He was forever preaching:"Abandon idol- worship, give choice in marriage, give women education; why do you keep them shut up in a cage? |
| 17455 | He was not my husband, but why should I hide my sin from my mistress? |
| 17455 | He wished to forget himself in the crowd, but at that time there was no crowd; and who can forget himself? |
| 17455 | Her own peace? |
| 17455 | Her return to his house might come about; let it occur when it would, what harm was there in the meantime in trying to see him secretly? |
| 17455 | Hira replied, with flaming eyes:"Who are you to dismiss me? |
| 17455 | Hira said to her:"Sister Kushi, I feel very strange to- day; will you do my work for me?" |
| 17455 | Hira said to herself:"Now what shall I do? |
| 17455 | Hira said:"How will you get to see her?" |
| 17455 | Hira, with a laugh:"Are you not to get anything?" |
| 17455 | His education had not been neglected by his parents; who was so well instructed as himself? |
| 17455 | How can it be true?" |
| 17455 | How could she do so? |
| 17455 | How could they speak to strangers of such a shameful subject? |
| 17455 | How did you first make love to her?" |
| 17455 | How does he love me? |
| 17455 | How long can she exist without seeing you? |
| 17455 | How many days could she go on without seeing you? |
| 17455 | How often have I uttered this name, and what is the use? |
| 17455 | How often will you speak of that? |
| 17455 | How shall I effect that? |
| 17455 | How to do it? |
| 17455 | I am a swine-- how should I recognize a pearl?" |
| 17455 | I am twenty- eight or eighty years old; how shall I speak of my troubles? |
| 17455 | I bought some poison, but afterwards I thought,''Why should I die for another?'' |
| 17455 | I can not, can not go; yet if not, what shall I do? |
| 17455 | I do not wish to hurt her, but if hurting her benefits me, why should I not do it? |
| 17455 | I have left my husband-- would I take his money? |
| 17455 | I have long known I was destined not to have a single day of happiness, else how is it that in the first moment of joy this calamity comes upon me?" |
| 17455 | I love her still; but where is my Surja Mukhi? |
| 17455 | I might die; but would that save Surja Mukhi?" |
| 17455 | IS THERE HOPE? |
| 17455 | IS THERE HOPE? |
| 17455 | If Hira were in Surja Mukhi''s place, would she be so deceitful? |
| 17455 | If I am seen with you what will be my position?" |
| 17455 | If I can get rid of this girl I may be happy once more; but how to get rid of her? |
| 17455 | If I could not die, why did I come here? |
| 17455 | If I die my family name will become extinct; if I marry I may expect children: is this unreasonable? |
| 17455 | If I do not tell you my sorrows, to whom shall I tell them? |
| 17455 | If I ever do give it up it will be for your sake, and--""And what?" |
| 17455 | If I had not cared for Kunda Nandini, and she had died, would that have been any loss to me? |
| 17455 | If I had ruled my passions, would she have been brought to die such a death in a strange place? |
| 17455 | If I have been able with my own eyes to see him so happy, has not my life answered its purpose? |
| 17455 | If I were to do that what would happen? |
| 17455 | If I were too weak to forbid you, ought you to have sat down? |
| 17455 | If I willed it, could I die instead of her? |
| 17455 | If Kunda Nandini is in his eyes but as other women, why is he so careful not to look towards her? |
| 17455 | If he meets it, again becoming troubled he withdraws his eyes; can I not understand that? |
| 17455 | If he who would establish the custom of marrying widows is a_ pandit_, then who can be called a dunce? |
| 17455 | If it is necessary you should stay so long in Calcutta, why am I not with you to attend upon you? |
| 17455 | If so, why do you not tell me? |
| 17455 | If so, why does she not go with Kamal?" |
| 17455 | If you ca n''t climb these few steps, how will you ascend the heavenly ladder?" |
| 17455 | If you do not save us, to whom shall we go?" |
| 17455 | If you had any shame left, would you expose yourself in the village as a_ Boisnavi_?" |
| 17455 | If, becoming angry, I say,''May I die?'' |
| 17455 | If, you say, God made her great, how is that her fault? |
| 17455 | In a broken voice Nagendra asked,"Did any other woman live in her house?" |
| 17455 | In a place where I constitute society, who is there to banish me?'' |
| 17455 | In a stifled voice he said--"What is this, Kunda? |
| 17455 | In a weak voice he asked,"Where is Haro Mani?" |
| 17455 | In astonishment Kunda replied,"Why do you ask?" |
| 17455 | In begging I shall pass my life; who wilt know me? |
| 17455 | In dying, sorrow leaves you: why do I not seek that expiation?" |
| 17455 | In fact, Srish Chandra''s words were true-- Surja Mukhi had never walked; how far could she go? |
| 17455 | In low tones Kunda said,"After that?" |
| 17455 | Indistinctly, and dreading the answer, she asked the servants--"Where is Surja Mukhi?" |
| 17455 | Is it my fate to weep? |
| 17455 | Is it not true that if a man stays six months in that city he becomes quite stupid? |
| 17455 | Is it true? |
| 17455 | Is that my fault? |
| 17455 | Is this a matter a woman could jest about?" |
| 17455 | Is this love?" |
| 17455 | Is this the end of my destiny, that I should go mad?" |
| 17455 | Is this the return for your Surja Mukhi''s devotion? |
| 17455 | It makes me weep; what is the use of weeping? |
| 17455 | Joking apart, have you given up all right over this girl? |
| 17455 | Kamal Didi said so; but how can she know it? |
| 17455 | Kamal Mani replied--"You have become quite foolish, else how can you doubt your husband''s heart? |
| 17455 | Kamal said,"Shall I put in a flower or two?" |
| 17455 | Kamal said:"What of that? |
| 17455 | Kamal understanding her thought, replied--"What does it matter in what country it happens? |
| 17455 | Kamal, more angrily, said:"Why? |
| 17455 | Kousalya heard the question, and answered,"Do n''t you know? |
| 17455 | Kunda Nandini; why do you tremble at the touch of a thief? |
| 17455 | Kunda did not reply; and Kamal went on:"Does not the_ Bou_( Surja Mukhi) love you? |
| 17455 | Kunda had not received the news of Surja Mukhi''s death, therefore she thought,"What is the use of dying now? |
| 17455 | Kunda seemed to reply:"Whither shall I go?" |
| 17455 | Kunda thinks,"If I am virtuous, shall I be born again as an insect?" |
| 17455 | Kunda thought,"Why should I be blamed for all this?" |
| 17455 | Kunda, agitated with fear, breathing with difficulty, asked,"Who are you?" |
| 17455 | Kunda, with thy one garment, whither goest thou? |
| 17455 | Kunda?" |
| 17455 | LOTUS- EYED, WHO ART THOU? |
| 17455 | LOTUS- EYED, WHO ART THOU? |
| 17455 | Many give it up, why should not you do so?" |
| 17455 | Mine was a splendid destiny; how has it changed thus?" |
| 17455 | Much dejected, Nagendra asked,"Where is he gone?" |
| 17455 | My beloved always had a gracious countenance; why is he now always so absent- minded? |
| 17455 | My day is over; were it not so how should I be in this condition? |
| 17455 | My husband is not here, with whom can I take counsel?" |
| 17455 | Nagendra asked angrily,"What is my fault?" |
| 17455 | Nagendra looked at the pure, cold water, and asked himself,"Can I lie there?" |
| 17455 | Nagendra, annoyed, said,"What complaint have I?" |
| 17455 | Nagendra, astonished, asked:"What has happened?" |
| 17455 | Nagendra, frowning, said in a sharp voice:"What does that mean?" |
| 17455 | Nagendra, somewhat disturbed, replied:"Do you wish things to be as they were before? |
| 17455 | Nagendra, what if you should discover the flower, Kunda, under the trees? |
| 17455 | Nagendra-- again I say it, Nagendra; if Nagendra heard of it what would he say? |
| 17455 | No? |
| 17455 | Not recognizing Kunda, Surja Mukhi said,"Who are you?" |
| 17455 | Noticing her silence, Nagendra said:"Why do you not talk? |
| 17455 | Now it seemed to say,"How are you, my Hira? |
| 17455 | Now the messenger of death stood at his bedside; he was about to leave the world; where would Kunda be on the morrow? |
| 17455 | Now what happiness remains to be hoped for?" |
| 17455 | Now where shall I find Surja Mukhi? |
| 17455 | Now where was that moon? |
| 17455 | Now--"Breathing hard, Nagendra repeated,"Now?" |
| 17455 | Occasionally when his mind is absent his eyes wander hither and thither; do I not know what they are seeking? |
| 17455 | Of what was Nagendra thinking at that time as he sat in the_ boita khana_? |
| 17455 | Oh, what do I say? |
| 17455 | On reading this letter he thought to himself:"What is this? |
| 17455 | On the road she was met by a neighbour, who said,"Oh, Hira''s grandmother, what have you in your hand?" |
| 17455 | One of the elder women addressed her saying,"Who are you?" |
| 17455 | Otherwise, why are you sitting in my house? |
| 17455 | Perceiving the doctor, she said,"Oh, father, where is the doctor, father?" |
| 17455 | Recognizing her, Debendra asked in astonishment,"Who has brought you to this condition?" |
| 17455 | Regard yourself as a widow-- since your husband is so base, are you not a widow? |
| 17455 | Reviving, the woman asked,"Where am I?" |
| 17455 | Say, say, will you be my wife or not? |
| 17455 | Seeing Hira weeping, he asked,"Why do you weep, Hira?" |
| 17455 | Shall I drown myself? |
| 17455 | Shall I please myself by uttering it for once? |
| 17455 | Shall I spare the Babu? |
| 17455 | Shall I write to Nagendra?" |
| 17455 | She asked herself who it could be? |
| 17455 | She asked herself:"Is this censure? |
| 17455 | She asked,"Why?" |
| 17455 | She began to think,"Why was I so hasty in leaving the house? |
| 17455 | She had already wept much, and now she began to think,"What is the use of weeping? |
| 17455 | She had heard of a reward being offered for finding Surja Mukhi, therefore on seeing her she asked--"Are you not our mistress?" |
| 17455 | She inquired,"When was it?" |
| 17455 | She now said:"What is my purpose? |
| 17455 | She said, smiling,"Ma, why do you weep in this way? |
| 17455 | She said,"For what fault did you leave me?" |
| 17455 | She weeps-- what can I do? |
| 17455 | Should I become a star if I did that? |
| 17455 | Should I see every day-- whom? |
| 17455 | Should I see? |
| 17455 | Since the Creator has given me the opportunity, why should I lose it through my own fault? |
| 17455 | So she asked herself:"Do the good become stars after death? |
| 17455 | So, shaking her head, she said:"You presume so far as to abuse me?" |
| 17455 | Some may ask, What harm if he did? |
| 17455 | Some say,"Why has not five become seven?" |
| 17455 | Srish Chandra was silent for a time; at length he said:"Brother, why dwell upon this an longer? |
| 17455 | Srish said, laughing,"Have the cucumbers been stolen again?" |
| 17455 | Stammeringly she asked one of the throng of women,"Who is that?" |
| 17455 | Still, may I not weep over that suffering with you?" |
| 17455 | Struck to the heart, Nagendra said in troubled tones,"Why have you done this? |
| 17455 | Suddenly raising her face, she asked--"Kamal, in what country are females destroyed at birth?" |
| 17455 | Surendra, lending no ear to his evil words, said,"Whose destruction are you seeking to compass by assuming this disguise?" |
| 17455 | Surja Mukhi loved her husband; did not Kunda love him? |
| 17455 | Surja Mukhi said:"If you do not know what is the fault, how can I? |
| 17455 | Surja Mukhi smiled, a faint smile indeed, like the pale flashes of lightning after rain; then answered--"What am I? |
| 17455 | Surja Mukhi, calling Hira, said,"Do you know that_ Boisnavi_?" |
| 17455 | Surja Mukhi, examining the_ Boisnavi_ from head to foot, inquired,"Who are you?" |
| 17455 | Surja Mukhi, with wet eyes, said:"I am dying; why should I feel shame at such a time? |
| 17455 | Taking Surja Mukhi aside, he asked,"Have you dismissed Hira?" |
| 17455 | The doctor asked,"What has happened to you?" |
| 17455 | The final objection-- Surja Mukhi: Why do I distress a loving wife with a rival? |
| 17455 | The ghost- like shrubs, murmuring, asked,"Whither goest thou?" |
| 17455 | The letter ended, the_ Brahmachari_ asked,"What address shall I write?" |
| 17455 | The old woman answered,"Hira has become hysterical; the doctor has given me some castor- oil for her; do you think that will be good for hysterics?" |
| 17455 | The robber said:"Kunda, will you go to- morrow to Calcutta? |
| 17455 | The_ Boisnavi_, listening to the different demands, gave a momentary glance at Kunda, saying:"Have you no commands to give?" |
| 17455 | The_ Brahmachari_ asked"What shall we call you? |
| 17455 | The_ Brahmachari_ stood waiting, the lightning flashed brightly; he saw something lying at the side of the road-- was it a human being? |
| 17455 | The_ Brahmachari_ wiped his eyes also, and said:"Where is your husband? |
| 17455 | Then Kamal Mani drew Kunda''s head lovingly on her breast, and taking hold of her face caressingly, said,"Kunda, will you tell me the truth?" |
| 17455 | Then Nagendra said,"Will not some of you receive her and give her in marriage? |
| 17455 | Then Srish asked,"Must you really go to Govindpur? |
| 17455 | Then Surendra entered, sat down by Debendra, and after inquiring after his health, said,"Where have you been to- day again?" |
| 17455 | Then he asked,"Will it cause remark if I sit here until the rain is past?" |
| 17455 | Then holding the light in another direction, he asked,"Whose spirit are you?" |
| 17455 | Then if it is not beauty, is it disposition? |
| 17455 | Then she said,"Kunda, why do you weep?" |
| 17455 | Then she said--"You are my all, my present and my future; why should I hide anything from you? |
| 17455 | Then the spirit, laughing, said,"Are you well,_ Boisnavi Didi_?" |
| 17455 | Then what is lost now-- hope? |
| 17455 | Then which are they among those hosts? |
| 17455 | Then why am I writing all this trash? |
| 17455 | Then why not say so? |
| 17455 | Then, in an angry voice, Surja Mukhi said,"Who are you to take me back?" |
| 17455 | There will be a rainstorm: who will shelter Kunda? |
| 17455 | This low- born female is also, I think, very young, else in meeting with her why should you forget me? |
| 17455 | This was not like perfect happiness; but since the flight of Surja Mukhi, where had there been perfect happiness? |
| 17455 | This was the letter:"Dearest,--Since you returned to Calcutta you have forgotten me; else why have I had only one letter from you? |
| 17455 | Those long slender moonbeams by which the heart was wo nt to be refreshed, why did they now seem so glaring? |
| 17455 | Thus saying, Debendra sat down by Hira, who, after a little silent enjoyment this pleasure, said--"Why have you come here? |
| 17455 | To solve his doubt he said,"Who are you?" |
| 17455 | To whom can I speak? |
| 17455 | WHAT IS THE POISON TREE? |
| 17455 | WHAT IS THE POISON TREE? |
| 17455 | Was Surja Mukhi my wife only? |
| 17455 | Was it a pillow? |
| 17455 | Was it not your design to compass my destruction? |
| 17455 | Were you not charmed with my get- up?" |
| 17455 | What I have suffered, what I do suffer, how can I tell you? |
| 17455 | What am I to do alone?" |
| 17455 | What am I? |
| 17455 | What beauty decked with jewels had ever felt the pleasure felt by Surja Mukhi at that moment? |
| 17455 | What can I do? |
| 17455 | What can he hide from me? |
| 17455 | What could Surja Mukhi say to these heart- piercing words? |
| 17455 | What could a thief have done to Surja Mukhi? |
| 17455 | What could secluded women understand of the method of that singing? |
| 17455 | What did you say to Kunda Nandini?" |
| 17455 | What do you say? |
| 17455 | What does he love-- my beauty or me? |
| 17455 | What expiation? |
| 17455 | What further expiation? |
| 17455 | What harm did a few words do to me? |
| 17455 | What has happened to my Hira?" |
| 17455 | What has happened to you?" |
| 17455 | What has she sent you to say? |
| 17455 | What if, hearing this sound, she should know that if you move and become invisible her happiness will be gone? |
| 17455 | What if, seeing you in the window, the sound of her beating heart should make itself heard? |
| 17455 | What is lost-- happiness? |
| 17455 | What is the broken shell?" |
| 17455 | What joy could I hope for in denying happiness to him? |
| 17455 | What more could she say? |
| 17455 | What objection then remains? |
| 17455 | What poison? |
| 17455 | What slayer of father, mother, or son, is a greater sinner than I? |
| 17455 | What will become of them hereafter?" |
| 17455 | What? |
| 17455 | When all were gone, Surendra asked Debendra,"How are you to- day?" |
| 17455 | When did the_ Thakur_ come?" |
| 17455 | When he met her he only said,"Where do you come from, Kamal?" |
| 17455 | When people came in she said,"Do you see the old woman wearing flowers in her hair?" |
| 17455 | When so learned a teacher affirms that widow- marriage is approved by the Shastras, who can contradict? |
| 17455 | When there she held the poison in her hand, weeping bitterly; then, wiping her eyes, she said--"What fault have I committed that I should die? |
| 17455 | Where are you going?" |
| 17455 | Where have I seen you?" |
| 17455 | Where is she?" |
| 17455 | Where should I get it? |
| 17455 | Where was Surja Mukhi now? |
| 17455 | Where will money come from? |
| 17455 | While thus engaged the latter murmured,"Are you not Kunda?" |
| 17455 | Who does not seek his own advantage? |
| 17455 | Who ever had such a husband? |
| 17455 | Who gives food to a mad woman? |
| 17455 | Who has stolen the broken shell?" |
| 17455 | Who is there more unfortunate than I? |
| 17455 | Who knows? |
| 17455 | Who so fortunate as myself? |
| 17455 | Who would bring it for me? |
| 17455 | Who would live in a world so full of sorrow? |
| 17455 | Who would love? |
| 17455 | Who?" |
| 17455 | Why am I so angry with Surja Mukhi? |
| 17455 | Why are the words of a thief as a thorn in the flesh? |
| 17455 | Why are you angry, sister? |
| 17455 | Why did I marry Kunda Nandini? |
| 17455 | Why did I not die by the roadside? |
| 17455 | Why did I not die? |
| 17455 | Why did I not die? |
| 17455 | Why did I not go? |
| 17455 | Why did not the earth open and swallow up Nagendra in his palanquin? |
| 17455 | Why did the Creator betray her? |
| 17455 | Why did you believe a drunkard''s words?" |
| 17455 | Why did you come that night? |
| 17455 | Why did you not send for me?" |
| 17455 | Why did you save me?" |
| 17455 | Why did you speak of my illness? |
| 17455 | Why do I delay now? |
| 17455 | Why do I not die now? |
| 17455 | Why do you not introduce us to your wife?" |
| 17455 | Why does Debendra think Kunda so beautiful? |
| 17455 | Why had he not torn up the seed of the poison tree from his heart? |
| 17455 | Why hang pearls on a monkey''s neck? |
| 17455 | Why have you thus sacrificed yourself?" |
| 17455 | Why is there so much sorrow in it? |
| 17455 | Why might she not even see him? |
| 17455 | Why not? |
| 17455 | Why should I die without killing him who has struck me? |
| 17455 | Why should I doubt my husband''s heart? |
| 17455 | Why should I hurt her? |
| 17455 | Why should I trouble myself? |
| 17455 | Why should everything that seemed beautiful in days of happiness seem to- day so ugly? |
| 17455 | Why should he love me? |
| 17455 | Why should it not succeed? |
| 17455 | Why should you destroy me?" |
| 17455 | Why should you not go with me to see her? |
| 17455 | Why should you not tell me what it is? |
| 17455 | Why this consent after so long an interval? |
| 17455 | Why, then, am I angry? |
| 17455 | Why, then, did I instal Kunda Nandini in her seat? |
| 17455 | Why, then, did she not seek the water? |
| 17455 | Why, then, should I become subject to you? |
| 17455 | Widow- marriage is allowed in the Shastras, so what fault can be found with it? |
| 17455 | Will he not come?" |
| 17455 | Will the ladies like a song?" |
| 17455 | Will you give a lecture in our Brahmo Samaj?" |
| 17455 | Will you let her sing for you? |
| 17455 | Will you not come and see me? |
| 17455 | Wiping Kunda''s eyes she said again,"Kunda, will you go with me?" |
| 17455 | With a melancholy face she asked--"Has the Babu had any talk with you since he came home? |
| 17455 | With half of your heart you still think of your own rights; else why, having sacrificed yourself, do you repent?" |
| 17455 | Without raising his eyes Nagendra said--"Kunda, when did you come? |
| 17455 | Would it not be well that I should renew acquaintance with your new_ grihini_?" |
| 17455 | Would it not be well to die? |
| 17455 | Would you not fear to do so?" |
| 17455 | Yes, I remember; why should it not be? |
| 17455 | Yet on what pretext could she present herself in the court- yard of the house? |
| 17455 | Yet why should Kamal try to flatter me? |
| 17455 | You keep many poisons; can you sell me one that will instantly destroy life?" |
| 17455 | You will say if a man may marry two wives why should not a woman have two husbands? |
| 17455 | and from whence do you come?" |
| 17455 | and if so, are all I loved become stars? |
| 17455 | and when Kunda''s tones reach his ear, and he fastens to eat his meal, can one not understand that? |
| 17455 | and why should I be blamed?" |
| 17455 | are you quite well, Kundi?" |
| 17455 | but what can I do, sister? |
| 17455 | did you leave me here to such a fate?" |
| 17455 | do you repent having married me?" |
| 17455 | do you think widow marriage unholy?" |
| 17455 | do you venture to intrude here? |
| 17455 | dost thou not see that my brother loves thee?" |
| 17455 | for what fault are you leaving me?" |
| 17455 | friend_ Malini_, are you going?" |
| 17455 | how can I determine? |
| 17455 | how could I allow myself to be put off last night when parting from her?" |
| 17455 | in this world who cares for any one? |
| 17455 | is there another man like him? |
| 17455 | may I meet you at my last moment; but why have you come now?" |
| 17455 | not more holy than I? |
| 17455 | or was it the lap of some one-- of Kunda Nandini? |
| 17455 | said Hira, angrily,"you deny it? |
| 17455 | said Kamal;"if you do n''t go, can I stay there long?" |
| 17455 | said Nagendra;"how did you meet with the_ Brahmachari_?" |
| 17455 | said the tipsy one,"are you a spirit from the Datta family?" |
| 17455 | she exclaimed,"what is in your mind? |
| 17455 | the fan palms rustled,"Whither dost thou go?" |
| 17455 | the water is pure, cool, pleasant; will you plunge into it? |
| 17455 | thought he;"is there a prisoner in the gaols of this country who is not more happy than I? |
| 17455 | what am I? |
| 17455 | what happy man could have quitted thee on such an autumn night with satiated eyes? |
| 17455 | what is your name?" |
| 17455 | where did you find her?" |
| 17455 | where does he live?" |
| 17455 | whither goest thou? |
| 17455 | who else possesses such a wife? |
| 17455 | who was there on earth to- day more wretched? |
| 17455 | why can I not pronounce the name? |
| 17455 | why hast Thou not made this a happy world? |
| 17455 | why take such pains to avoid speaking her name? |
| 17455 | will you love me or no?" |
| 17455 | will you not die? |
| 17455 | you have not an evil countenance, you too are young; why this vice in your heart? |
| 17455 | your words, or the letter?" |

| 15477 | What, O grandsire, are the merits attaching to the non- acceptance of gifts in this world? |
| 15477 | What, O monarch, have Brahmanas to do with wealth?'' |

| 15477 | What, however, are the rules that apply to the others?" |
| 15477 | What, however, dost thou think, O regenerate one?'' |
| 15477 | What, however, is the difference, O grandsire, between the giver and the receiver?" |
| 15477 | What, however, is the remedy?'' |
| 15477 | What, indeed, are those acts by doing which a man succeeds in attaining to what is for your highest good?" |
| 15477 | What, indeed, are those acts in consequence of which ye become incompetent to afflict men? |
| 15477 | What, indeed, is that which( if presented) becomes eternal?" |
| 15477 | What, indeed, is the goal that I shall attain, having obtained thee for my husband?'' |
| 15477 | What, indeed, is the notion through which thou hast no dominion, or everything is thy dominion?"'' |
| 15477 | What, indeed, is thy purpose? |
| 15477 | What, is there a Kshatriya that is superior to Utathya?''"''" |
| 15477 | Whatever, however is that fruit seeing which thou worshippest them, O king? |
| 15477 | When also are they to be made? |
| 15477 | When did it come into existence? |
| 15477 | When she met Draupadi, she asked her in grief,--''O reverend lady, where are all our sons? |
| 15477 | When such has been the case, O chastiser of foes, what can I now do? |
| 15477 | When the Kapas have these and many other virtues and accomplishments, why, indeed, would you seek to subjugate them? |
| 15477 | When the cause is eternal, why is the effect not so? |
| 15477 | When, however, wilt thou go to the forest, with the permission of Yudhishthira?" |
| 15477 | Whence art thou? |
| 15477 | Whence does the husband of the woman that brings forth the son derive his right to the latter? |
| 15477 | Whence hast thou become unrivalled on earth for beauty? |
| 15477 | Whence hast thou taken such great fright? |
| 15477 | Whence is their lordship derived both here and hereafter? |

| 15477 | Where do the acts exist of one that is devoid of body? |
| 15477 | Where does that god reside? |
| 15477 | Where does the other then remain? |
| 15477 | Where hast thou been, O sinless one, and whence the cause of this thy mental disquietude? |
| 15477 | Where is Vidura, O king? |
| 15477 | Where now is that understanding of thine about which I had heard from Vasudeva? |
| 15477 | Where then is the room for repentance? |
| 15477 | Where was Dhritarashtra''s affection for us then? |
| 15477 | Where were Bhishma and Drona then, and where was Somadatta? |
| 15477 | Where, again, is the son to be? |
| 15477 | Wherefore then, O Bharata, acquainted with every morality and versed in all the Agamas, art thou overwhelmed( with grief) as if from ignorance?"''" |
| 15477 | Which amongst these two( viz., Gift and Sacrifice) is said to be productive of superior merit? |
| 15477 | Whither has she gone? |

| 15477 | Who, indeed, art thou? |
| 15477 | Whom amongst these Brahmanas, O holy one dost thou worship with so great reverence? |
| 15477 | Whose puissance and worship remain immutable? |
| 15477 | Why also did all these wonders vanish from our sight? |
| 15477 | Why also did the grandson of Kusika and not his son become a Brahmana? |
| 15477 | Why also do you stay here?" |
| 15477 | Why also has Ulupi, the daughter of the prince of snakes, come here? |
| 15477 | Why also is gold regarded as a cleanser superior to earth itself and kine? |
| 15477 | Why also was the mountain consumed with the woods and all that belonged to it? |
| 15477 | Why also, O illustrious deity, hast thou restored the mountain to its former condition? |
| 15477 | Why also, after having caused diverse kinds of food in my palace to be collected, didst thou consume them with the aid of fire? |
| 15477 | Why are Valis offered on the ground by persons leading the domestic mode of life?" |
| 15477 | Why are three rice- balls offered separately at a Sraddha? |
| 15477 | Why are thy matted locks tawny in hue and so erect? |
| 15477 | Why art thou always a Brahmacharin with matted locks? |
| 15477 | Why art thou bent upon having this sacrifice performed by a priest of such a singular disposition? |
| 15477 | Why art thou so stupefied? |
| 15477 | Why did decrepitude cover her beauty so long? |
| 15477 | Why did such untoward incidents overtake the grandsons of both, instead of their sons? |
| 15477 | Why did the grandson of Richika instead of his son become a Kshatriya in conduct? |
| 15477 | Why didst thou, again, without any ostensible reason, make thyself invisible, and once more become visible? |
| 15477 | Why do you afflict those men that are vile and impure and that are unclean? |

| 15477 | Why does not thy husband come out today? |
| 15477 | Why dost thou not thyself go to her?" |
| 15477 | Why dost thou still cherish human affections? |
| 15477 | Why dost thou then cling to it? |
| 15477 | Why dost thou, O Arjuna, worship Agni everyday who is a Brahmana? |
| 15477 | Why has thy mother come to the field of battle? |
| 15477 | Why hast thou come back without having accomplished thy charge? |
| 15477 | Why is it regarded as the foremost of all things? |
| 15477 | Why is it that I have not yet succeeded in acquiring the status of a Brahmana?'' |
| 15477 | Why is it that thou bearest greater affection for those children that were borne by thee in thy transformed state? |
| 15477 | Why is thy throat blue after the manner of the peacock''s plumes? |
| 15477 | Why should not Righteousness, therefore, be courted? |
| 15477 | Why then didst thou bring us from the woods while we were children? |
| 15477 | Why then didst thou cause us to exterminate the Earth? |
| 15477 | Why then do you not accept me? |
| 15477 | Why then dost thou lie still on the Earth? |
| 15477 | Why then dost thou not renounce this dog?" |
| 15477 | Why then hast thou abducted Utathya''s wife bestowed upon him by Soma?''" |
| 15477 | Why then should not persons who are possessed of energy and correct knowledge behave with obedience and respect towards them? |
| 15477 | Why then, O best of kings, are such sons to share the paternal wealth unequally? |
| 15477 | Why then, O chief of Bharata''s race, this exceedingly dejected aspect? |
| 15477 | Why then, O grandsire, do human beings die even when they are very young? |
| 15477 | Why was it introduced and for what purpose are those gifts made? |
| 15477 | Why will not the puissant Deity show favour to thee, O Mahadeva? |
| 15477 | Why, O delighter of the Kurus, do men( when women are stained with so many faults) still attach themselves to women? |
| 15477 | Why, O holy one, dost thou reside in the crematorium, abandoning all those delightful mansions? |
| 15477 | Why, O illustrious deity, is the Pinaka always in thy hand? |
| 15477 | Why, O learned Brahmana, didst thou again, lay thyself down on the bed and sleep as before for one and twenty days? |
| 15477 | Why, O son, wilt thou not fight me, seeing that I have come within thy dominions? |
| 15477 | Why, again, in dreamless slumber, though separated from Mind, does not Prana apprehend( all objects)? |
| 15477 | Why, however, O slayer of foes, dost thou not tell me today of the death of my daughter''s son? |
| 15477 | Why, indeed, dost thou seek to wash off the spots of milk from thy body? |
| 15477 | Why, indeed, is it regarded so superior as a Dakshina? |
| 15477 | Why, indeed, is sexual congress interdicted for the man who performs a Sraddha and for him also who eats at a Sraddha( for the particular day)? |
| 15477 | Why, then, O king, hast thou come to such a distressful end? |
| 15477 | Will all the kings enjoy happiness in their respective kingdoms, in consequence of the pacification of the Kauravas brought about by thee? |
| 15477 | Will it not kill me? |
| 15477 | Will the five sons of Pandu, and the children of Dhritarashtra, O scorcher of foes, sport in the world in joy with thee? |
| 15477 | Will this lead to what is beneficial? |
| 15477 | Will, O king, her residence in the woods be productive of fruits? |
| 15477 | With a gratified heart, Gautama then said unto the regenerate Utanka,--"Why, O son, is thy mind so afflicted with grief today? |
| 15477 | With his senses and mind completely agitated, he began to reflect with his whole heart in this strain:--''Alas, how shall I ride my steed? |
| 15477 | With what does he become pleased? |
| 15477 | With what energy does it seem to be endued? |
| 15477 | With what girl should he be wedded? |
| 15477 | Ye Rishis, do you know for certain what this one will bring forth?" |
| 15477 | Ye foremost ones among the deities, what is Heaven to me if I am dissociated from my brothers? |
| 15477 | Yudhishthira''s question is, who, amongst these, should be considered worthy of gifts? |
| 15477 | [ 218] O auspicious damsel, how can I behold thee at even this, the sixth division of the day, abstaining from food and observing vows? |
| 15477 | [ 266] Beholding the puissance of high- souled Brahmanas, my sire asked Chandramas the question,"How do the Brahmanas attain to success?" |
| 15477 | [ 307] Having placed every requisite upon the car, the king said unto the Rishi,''O holy one, whither shall the car proceed? |
| 15477 | [ 351] Why, therefore, has this end overtaken thee?'' |
| 15477 | [ 365] What are the fruits of gifts, and what those of holding the Vedas in memory? |
| 15477 | [ 50] Who else than that Supreme Lord could be creator of Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Space, Mind, and that which is called Mahat? |
| 15477 | [ 541] Whom does that rice- ball which is consigned to the waters reach? |
| 15477 | [ 546] By performing what acts can men become freed from the debt they owe to the Pitris? |
| 15477 | [ 56] Who else in this world is praised as having the horizon only for his garments? |
| 15477 | [ 57] Who else is there that has been able to subjugate Kama, the god of desire? |
| 15477 | [ 58] Who else is there whose status is applauded as unchangeable and worshipped with reverence by the three worlds? |
| 15477 | and he further enquired of the Rishi, asking,''Which car shall I bring? |
| 15477 | why dost thou not answer me today-- me who am weeping so bitterly?'' |
| 40588 | Dost thou think then that such a miserable fellow dares fight with our father? |
| 40588 | I was very much vexed, and exclaimed''How can the king be said to have married me lawfully?'' 40588 Now king, give judgment to decide their dispute; whose wife ought the maiden to be? |
| 40588 | Now tell me: which of those two shewed most courage in plunging into the water? |
| 40588 | Prudence indeed is power, so what has a man, devoid of prudence, to do with power? 40588 So what am I to do with these figures, which are all a mere burden, now that I am deprived of him?" |
| 40588 | Then I said to Suratamanjarí,''Lady, by whom were you married, and how did this person get possession of you?'' 40588 Therefore, though our youth be very charming, why should we cling to this perishable body? |
| 40588 | Thou art an observer of the good custom; how hast thou come into this state? |
| 40588 | Thus discernment and reflection are the main things in governing a kingdom; what is of more importance? |
| 40588 | Thus heroic souls endure separation for so long a time, and how can you find it difficult to endure it for only one night? |
| 40588 | What reckless crime of this kind will not a wicked wife commit? |
| 40588 | When I heard that, I said,''What, what? 40588 When he saw her alight and come towards him, he said to her,"Who are you, and why have you come?" |
| 40588 | When that witch Sarabhánaná had said this, we said to her--''Tell us, who is to be the future emperor of the Vidyádharas? 40588 Would not that speech of the miser''s make even a stone laugh? |
| 40588 | ''How comes it that you have gone so far from the garden without letting me know? |
| 40588 | ''In this very market- place there is a pitcher full of valuable jewels buried in front of the god: why do you not take it up also?'' |
| 40588 | Accordingly she must of necessity endure the misery which the curse of the Siddha maiden has entailed; who can alter that? |
| 40588 | After all, how can that promise of my teacher''s be false, as it is so precisely in accordance with all that has taken place? |
| 40588 | After riding some time, the horse said--"I think I hear a noise; look round, can you see anything?" |
| 40588 | After saying this to the abashed physician, the king said to the cooks--"Is there any of the flesh of that goat left?" |
| 40588 | After some time the horse again said,"Look back, can you see anything now?" |
| 40588 | After the monkey had thus reflected, he said to the porpoise;"If this is the case, why did you not inform me of this before, my friend? |
| 40588 | After they had said this, they asked her young son, who was there,"Who killed your father?" |
| 40588 | All of them thereupon said to him,--"What does this mean?" |
| 40588 | Am I a weakling? |
| 40588 | Am I like you? |
| 40588 | Anangaprabhá too, seeing that he was handsome, came within the range of the god of the flowery bow, and said to herself--"Who is this? |
| 40588 | And Chakra asked him,--"Who are you, by what crime did you incur this, and how do you manage to continue alive?" |
| 40588 | And Earth said"What other man is so devoted to his lord? |
| 40588 | And I said to her,"Fair one, you are fitted to dwell in a palace, how comes it that you are here in the forest?" |
| 40588 | And I set myself to practise gaming and the use of arms; what boy does not become self- willed if he is not kept in order by some superior? |
| 40588 | And I, wanting to know what it was, said to him in private,''Gunasarman, why do you seem to be altered to- day?'' |
| 40588 | And Indra immediately had his body covered with repulsive marks; for to whom is not immorality a cause of humiliation? |
| 40588 | And Indra said to Chandraketu the king of the Vidyádharas,"Why has Muktáphalaketu not yet come?" |
| 40588 | And Prahasta advanced towards Súryaprabha and said--"King, are you awake or not?" |
| 40588 | And Pránadhara answered him, bowing before him--"I am that very brother of his, but how does Your Highness know about us?" |
| 40588 | And Siva said to her,"What can there be in the world, my beloved, present, past, or future that thou dost not know?" |
| 40588 | And Srídarsana said,"Can there possibly be a village here? |
| 40588 | And Vásavadattá frequently exclaimed with tears,"What profit is there in my life that causes only sorrow to my husband?" |
| 40588 | And Víravara, who was followed by the king, said with astonishment,"Who are you, and why do you thus weep?" |
| 40588 | And a general rumour, though false, injures even great men in this world; was not Ráma compelled by a slanderous report to abandon his wife Sítá? |
| 40588 | And a moment afterwards Yama said to Chitragupta,"Has this robber any amount of merit to his credit or not?" |
| 40588 | And a wise man must visit them, while he is young; for otherwise how can he be sure of reaching them, as this body can not be relied on?" |
| 40588 | And after he and his father had welcomed the man, who bowed before him, he immediately asked him,"Who are you and why have you come?" |
| 40588 | And after he had paid tribute, that haughty king was exceedingly afflicted, thinking to himself,"Why have I made submission to my enemy?" |
| 40588 | And after the meal,[ 226] being refreshed, I said to him,"Who are you, sir, and why have you thus saved the life of me who am resolved on death? |
| 40588 | And already five months are past; who knows what will become of her? |
| 40588 | And as for those Asuras who were slain by the gods, they were reckless, but did the gods slay Bali and others who were not infatuated?" |
| 40588 | And as for wealth, I have plenty, what do I want with more? |
| 40588 | And as soon as Dharmavyádha saw the hermit, he said,"Have you been sent here, Bráhman, by that faithful wife?" |
| 40588 | And as to the power of understanding the language of beasts and birds, which he possesses, what is the practical use of it? |
| 40588 | And at last he reached the shore of the western sea, and there he reflected,"How shall I cross over this sea?" |
| 40588 | And at night he asked that old woman, who did not recognize him,"Mother, do you know any tidings about the family of Dhanadeva?" |
| 40588 | And considering my poverty is so great, why did the Creator make my ambition so vast? |
| 40588 | And did I not say at the time,''I will not dwell in his house?''" |
| 40588 | And did he not, on that same occasion, grow bigger, and step into heaven? |
| 40588 | And did not Yayáti come to old age for love of Sarmishtá? |
| 40588 | And do homage, O Janamejaya; why have you given your daughter to an undeserver? |
| 40588 | And do not feel any commiseration with regard to me, so as to say to yourself--''Why should I be the cause of this man''s death?'' |
| 40588 | And do not say to yourself,''How can I eat an enemy''s food?'' |
| 40588 | And do you not know that he will prosper in fight by the force of science? |
| 40588 | And does good fortune attend on the other chief Rájpúts in his army, and on the elephants, horses, chariots and footmen?" |
| 40588 | And eager to hit upon an artifice, he immediately asked that woman,"Noble lady, what is the name of the king here, and what children has he? |
| 40588 | And he asked her,--"Auspicious lady, who are you, and why are you perturbed?" |
| 40588 | And he asked his wife and children, addressing them severally by name,"How have you returned to life after having been reduced to ashes? |
| 40588 | And he called out from above--"Who waits at the palace- gate?" |
| 40588 | And he certainly protects her, because she is ever intent on worshipping him; for virtue prevails; has it not been seen in the present instance? |
| 40588 | And he cried out from above--"Who is on guard at the palace- gate?" |
| 40588 | And he cried out from the roof,"Who is in attendance at the palace- gate?" |
| 40588 | And he exclaimed,"Holy Skanda, how could you give to ill- starred me a boon joined with a curse, like nectar mixed with poison? |
| 40588 | And he exclaimed,"If I do not see a living woman like this figure, of what profit to me is my kingdom or my life?" |
| 40588 | And he gave him his own daughter on the spot; what do generous men withhold when pleased with their benefactors? |
| 40588 | And he is my only husband, so why am I unchaste? |
| 40588 | And he said to her,"Fair one, who are you? |
| 40588 | And he said to her,"My beloved, what does all this mean? |
| 40588 | And he said to her,"Tell me, who are you?" |
| 40588 | And he said to himself,"If I have been born in a royal race, why am I so poor? |
| 40588 | And he said to the bard;"Who is this silent and motionless, engaged in meditation? |
| 40588 | And he said to the guards there,"Who made this offering?" |
| 40588 | And he said to the kings and to his ministers,"Tell me; shall I go to Ujjayiní to be married, or not?" |
| 40588 | And he spent the night in such thoughts as these,"Shall I ever get across the sea, and win that blushing bride?" |
| 40588 | And he thereupon gave her this answer;"Supported by affection for thee, I came here enduring many risks to my life, what else can I say, fair one?" |
| 40588 | And he, opening his eyes, said to him,"My friend, I am awake, for how could I sleep to- day being alone? |
| 40588 | And how am I to recover him? |
| 40588 | And how can one obtain from a son the same fruit in the next world, as one obtains from the marriage of a daughter? |
| 40588 | And how can you, though devoted to me, urge me to commit a crime, which will bring momentary pleasure,[ 366] but cause great misery in the next world? |
| 40588 | And how comes it that you did not know, you foolish creatures, that I should not be likely to put to death two sons obtained by severe austerities? |
| 40588 | And how could Bali have given the three worlds to Vishnu, and himself have gone to prison? |
| 40588 | And how could Prabala have given his own body to the gods? |
| 40588 | And how could you, without a chariot, have fought with a Rákshasa, who possessed a chariot? |
| 40588 | And how did he pass through the state of humanity inflicted on him by a curse, and regain Padmávatí? |
| 40588 | And how did you start from this place?" |
| 40588 | And how did you two come to enter this unpeopled wood? |
| 40588 | And how long, being brave men, can we remain without fighting a battle? |
| 40588 | And how shall I obtain such a lord again? |
| 40588 | And how will he manage to exist here alone separated from us? |
| 40588 | And how will his companions exist? |
| 40588 | And how will you be able to go alone on foot through the forests, and who will attend on you to remove your weariness? |
| 40588 | And if I do not requite this benefit, what is the use of my sovereignty, and of my protracting my life, which would only be like that of an animal?" |
| 40588 | And if his sister came and tricked me into marrying her by assuming my wife''s form, what fault have I committed in this? |
| 40588 | And if the destroyer of Tripura[ 637] favours us and is active on our side, what other miserable creature in the three worlds has any power? |
| 40588 | And if this prince dies, what good will my life do to me? |
| 40588 | And if you desert your lawful wife, I shall not allow your crime to go unpunished, for who in my position could tolerate such an outrage on morality? |
| 40588 | And immediately after putting him out, she went to her father, and her father asked her:"Did that Bráhman speak the truth?" |
| 40588 | And immediately he asked that girl in secret, bowing before her humbly,--"Adorable one, who art thou, that art thus become incarnate in my family?" |
| 40588 | And in a moment the princess said to the ascetic,''Then, noble lady, why should not your sister''s daughter be my guest also? |
| 40588 | And in his astonishment he said to the lion, the bird, and the snake;"Tell me, how come you to have articulate voice, and what is your history?" |
| 40588 | And in his astonishment, he asked him;"Who are you, sir, that you are so cheerful?" |
| 40588 | And in the evening his father said to him,"My son, treat her as a wife, for who abstains from the society of his own wife?" |
| 40588 | And independence is not fit for a maiden who ought to be in dependence on relations? |
| 40588 | And it came to pass that Vyádi and Indradatta asked their preceptor Varsha what fee they should give him? |
| 40588 | And it grieves me not for myself, for whose body is continuing? |
| 40588 | And it is guarded by a king named Devamáya, who is exceedingly haughty; so how can you advance further without conquering him?" |
| 40588 | And it seemed as if he was carried off to the abode of the gods by the nymphs of heaven, saying--"What have you to do with this contemptible woman? |
| 40588 | And king Mahásena rose up, and was pleased when he saw his enemy dead, and said repeatedly to Gunasarman--"What am I to say? |
| 40588 | And like a kind man, the elephant said to him lovingly, over and over again, with articulate voice,"Do you feel at all better?" |
| 40588 | And moreover will he forget us when he enters another body, like a man gone to the other world? |
| 40588 | And my brother, who was jealous, said in his wrath to that Siddha;''Why dost thou, although a Siddha, cast a longing look at another''s wife?'' |
| 40588 | And on the next day, as he was sitting in the hall of audience, he said to his courtiers,"Has any one among you seen the city called the Golden City? |
| 40588 | And once on a time the physician of his own motion said to the king,"Why do you make me of no account and act independently? |
| 40588 | And one day his wife asked him,--"Where do you always eat and drink before you come home?" |
| 40588 | And one of them came up to him, and pretending to be in a great state of excitement, said;"Bráhman, how come you to have this dog on your shoulder? |
| 40588 | And prompted by love, she said to that Savara,"Where is that friend of yours? |
| 40588 | And reflect, my good man; who is born free from sorrow in this world? |
| 40588 | And say to him politely from me,''Why did you not openly ask me for my daughter? |
| 40588 | And seeing the bed empty, she said,"How is this, that the king of Vatsa wakes up before me, and departs, leaving me asleep?" |
| 40588 | And she addressed to him this question,"Great Bráhman, who is this girl you have with you, and why are you come?" |
| 40588 | And she answered,"Would you like to eat your mangoes cold or hot?" |
| 40588 | And she bowed before her, and said to her,"Queen, queen Svayamprabhá sends you this message,''Have you forgotten your own promise? |
| 40588 | And she made him sit down on a sofa, and said to him,"Who is this man that you have brought here to- day?" |
| 40588 | And she said to him with a voice, the accents of which were choked with tears,"Cruel one, why did you depart and forsake my innocent self?" |
| 40588 | And she said to him--"Who are you, and why have you come to this inaccessible land?" |
| 40588 | And she said with a spiteful intonation to Mahalliká--"How are you, my friend, how comes it that you have come here at night?" |
| 40588 | And she said"Prince Jímútaváhana, lord renowned over the whole world, how is it, that, though thou art compassionate, thou hast not delivered me?" |
| 40588 | And she said,"Tell me the truth; are you the king Nala disguised as a cook? |
| 40588 | And she, seeing that he was of noble appearance, said to him bashfully--"Tell me, who are you? |
| 40588 | And she, when she heard this, answered:--"How could I desire marriage until you have accepted a bridegroom, for you are dearer to me than life?" |
| 40588 | And so the Rákshasa arrived as before, and asked his daughter, who was disguised as a man--"Did you see a man and a woman on the road?" |
| 40588 | And soon she rose up, and lamented those two that had been so unexpectedly slain, and said to herself,"Of what use is this life of mine to me now?" |
| 40588 | And tell me another thing, where are my sword and my beloved gone?" |
| 40588 | And tell us how such a disease can be cured in him?" |
| 40588 | And that Bráhman came in the morning, and, seeing the boy in the convent, said to those fools,"Who brought this fellow here?" |
| 40588 | And that blockhead asked,"What makes this food so savoury?" |
| 40588 | And that intoxicated woman asked him when he approached her,"Who are you, and how have you come to this inaccessible place?" |
| 40588 | And that priest immediately took it, saying,"I undertook to do this long ago, why should you trouble yourself about it?" |
| 40588 | And that sky- goer, coming near, said to the king,"King Kanakavarsha, how have you come to this region?" |
| 40588 | And the Rákshasa, quite taken aback by his courage, said to him,"What have you got to do there? |
| 40588 | And the Savara, when he saw her, being overpowered with wonder, reflected--"Who can this be? |
| 40588 | And the Vidyádharí, invisible as she was, said to him from the pillar--"Noble sir, what harm have I done you? |
| 40588 | And the compassionate man landed him on the bank, and said;"Who did this to you, my brother?" |
| 40588 | And the courtiers asked the porter,"Why did you, when you had got hold of a bracelet marked with the king''s name, conceal it?" |
| 40588 | And the emperor, seeing that his wives had arrived in his presence, said to Dhanavatí,"Where are my ministers?" |
| 40588 | And the great sage said to her with an affectionate voice,"Who are you, and how did you get into this wood, and why do you weep?" |
| 40588 | And the hall, full of the noise of the altercations of gamblers, seemed to utter this cry,"Who is there whose wealth I could not take away? |
| 40588 | And the hermit, after entertaining him with fruits and other delicacies, asked him,"Whence have you come, and whither are you going? |
| 40588 | And the hermit, who was his guest, said,"Why do you interrupt our conversation to do this?" |
| 40588 | And the king had her summoned, with the maimed man on her back, and, when she came near, he recognized her and said;"Are you that devoted wife?" |
| 40588 | And the king said to her,"Why do you suddenly appear despondent, tell me, my darling?" |
| 40588 | And the king seeing him in such a depressed state said to him--"Why have you become so thin? |
| 40588 | And the king, who had now fallen within the range of the arrows of love, said to himself;"Who can this be? |
| 40588 | And the mendicant answered clearly--"I do not wish to say what is unpleasant, but how can I help telling you when I am asked? |
| 40588 | And the mendicant monks, hearing it, came together in astonishment, and said to him,"Why do you without cause sound the gong at the wrong time?" |
| 40588 | And the merchant said to him,"Where is that son of mine?" |
| 40588 | And the mind of women can not be relied upon, it is not touched even by such a service as rescue from death; so what other benefit can move them?" |
| 40588 | And the next day he had them brought into his judgement- hall, and asked them--"Who are you and why did you deliberate together so long?" |
| 40588 | And the other hermits there debated among themselves;"Surely this Sítá is guilty, otherwise how could her husband have deserted her? |
| 40588 | And the people said to Sumanas,"Who are you, and what is the meaning of this?" |
| 40588 | And the serpent said with a human voice to the lady:"Why do you lament, my good woman?" |
| 40588 | And the virtuous Karataka, seeing it, said to Damanaka--"Why have you brought calamity on our master to gain your own ends? |
| 40588 | And then I sat down, and my friend, perceiving the feelings of both, put this question to him through his companion,"Who are you, noble sir, tell me?" |
| 40588 | And then he said to her,"Who art thou, and what is thy sorrow? |
| 40588 | And then he said to her,"Why do you weep, my daughter?" |
| 40588 | And then her mother Makaradanshtrá said to her,--"Why do you behave in this way, my daughter?" |
| 40588 | And then how would your son Naraváhanadatta live? |
| 40588 | And then the hero thought;"How can I manage during the night to convey this princess from this place to the harem?" |
| 40588 | And then the king honoured Gomukha, and asked him joyfully,"How did you obtain this princess? |
| 40588 | And then the lady of heavenly appearance said to him,"Courageous hero, for what price will you sell the flesh?" |
| 40588 | And then the princess asked the daughter of Maya,"Friend, how is it that he is called the king of Vatsa? |
| 40588 | And they said,"Alas, friend, what is this that you have undertaken? |
| 40588 | And they with one accord gave the following answer,"That king is a villain; so how can a visit to his palace turn out well? |
| 40588 | And was not Muktáphalaketu, emperor of the Vidyádharas, reunited to Padmávatí, after he had been separated from her? |
| 40588 | And was not his son Sattvavara braver, who, though a mere child, displayed such preëminent courage? |
| 40588 | And was not his wife braver, who, though a mother, endured to witness with her own eyes the offering up of her son as a victim? |
| 40588 | And were not thenceforth perfect cows born upon earth? |
| 40588 | And what does it matter that you gave him protection, or that he came as a suppliant, if he plots against your life? |
| 40588 | And what have you done? |
| 40588 | And what is that country favoured by fortune to which you are going?" |
| 40588 | And what is the meaning of what you say? |
| 40588 | And what thing is there in it?" |
| 40588 | And what what will you say to your father, when you have spent all your property, or where will you go? |
| 40588 | And what wise man desires to attain prosperity by the slaughter of others? |
| 40588 | And when Brahmá applauded him, Indra said to him,"Revered one, why are you pleased with one who is getting the worst of it?" |
| 40588 | And when Dhanadeva arrived there, he said to himself;"Why should I rashly introduce this unchaste woman into my house? |
| 40588 | And when Mandavisarpiní saw him, she said,"Why have you invaded my home? |
| 40588 | And when he came down, she said to him and her slave:"Are you in love with one another?" |
| 40588 | And when he entered it, the guards saw him, and cried out;"Who are you?" |
| 40588 | And when he had gone, the town- bred gentleman said to his wife,--"My dear, I hope you did not give him anything before he went?" |
| 40588 | And when he had set out in silence, the Vetála spake to him from his shoulder;"King, what is the meaning of this persistency of yours? |
| 40588 | And when he heard the cuckoos singing concealed by the leafy creepers, he said,"Is the sweet- voiced fair one here addressing me?" |
| 40588 | And when he looks up and asks--"Who is here?" |
| 40588 | And when he saw it, he restrained his wrath, and in his self- control reflected,"What is the use of slaying this animal who has betrayed his friend? |
| 40588 | And when he was there, the frogs asked him, keeping at a safe distance;"Tell us, worthy sir, why do you no longer eat frogs as of old?" |
| 40588 | And when his father said to him,"Son, why do you blame me?" |
| 40588 | And when my daughter, who is her friend, put this question to her''My dear, why do you not desire marriage, the only fruit of a daughter''s birth?'' |
| 40588 | And when night came on, he asked his servants--"Have we enough wine left for the latter part of the night or not?" |
| 40588 | And when night came, I said laughing to the bride in the bridal chamber,"Do you remember those warm and those cool mangoes?" |
| 40588 | And when she grew up, Agnisarman''s parents said to him,"Son, why do you not now go and fetch your wife?" |
| 40588 | And when she looked at him with a sidelong look tender with passion, he asked her--"Who are you, auspicious one, and why have you come here?" |
| 40588 | And when some one asked--"What is that?" |
| 40588 | And when the Rákshasa had disappeared, Sakatála again asked me--"How did the Rákshasa become your friend?" |
| 40588 | And when the Vetála wanted to kill him, he dissuaded him, and said,"Of what use will it be to us to kill this miserable heretic? |
| 40588 | And when the king asked,"How comes smoke to be rising here?" |
| 40588 | And when the king said to him;"How did you obtain these wives, and who is that Rákshasa?" |
| 40588 | And when the king suddenly beheld her advancing towards him, he was astonished and reflected--"Who can this be of incredible beauty? |
| 40588 | And when the lion heard the roar of that bull, never heard before, resounding through the air, he thought,"What animal makes this sound? |
| 40588 | And when the minister cried out,"Who requires anything, and what does he require?" |
| 40588 | And whence was he named Udayana? |
| 40588 | And while he said--"What, have you consumed it all?" |
| 40588 | And while we were reading the Veda there, her father the Bráhman Yajnasvámin came up to us, and said,"Where do you come from?" |
| 40588 | And who here can interfere with the movements of gods? |
| 40588 | And who is this, O lotus- faced one, who is sleeping here?" |
| 40588 | And who would ever have thought of seeing such a thing as this living golden deer studded with jewels, which they possess? |
| 40588 | And who, O king, is of more firm valour or more generous than you? |
| 40588 | And why are you so eager for the undertaking, beholding his prosperity? |
| 40588 | And why do you make the moon of your countenance like the moon when flecked with spots, by staining it with tears?" |
| 40588 | And why do you shew this despondency when your marriage is at hand? |
| 40588 | And why does she torture in this wilderness, with the discipline appropriate to ascetics, her body, which is soft as a flower?" |
| 40588 | And why have you come to me? |
| 40588 | And why should not one be sacrificed to supply food to many? |
| 40588 | And why should you have any shame about the matter? |
| 40588 | And why, though your body is marked with the signs of royalty, have you undertaken the vow of an ascetic? |
| 40588 | And will you not captivate the heart of the man, whose heart was captivated by Suprabhá? |
| 40588 | And you, being men of auspicious appearance, will no doubt attain prosperity; so tell me, what is your grief? |
| 40588 | And Ádityasena thought to himself;"His condition is past cure, so what is the use of torturing him? |
| 40588 | Are the crows in fault when the swans eat the rice?" |
| 40588 | Are there no mango- creepers, as well as poisonous creepers? |
| 40588 | Are you a jackal in courage, and not a lion as your name denotes?" |
| 40588 | Are you distracted with wind? |
| 40588 | Are you in good health?" |
| 40588 | As I am the daughter of a king, how can I become his wife? |
| 40588 | As for my desiring empire, is there any one that does not desire all sorts of things?" |
| 40588 | As he has a thousand faces and a thousand mouths, why could he not say with one mouth to Garuda,''Eat me first?'' |
| 40588 | As soon as he had said this, his parents answered him;"What is this that you say, son? |
| 40588 | As the ordinance of the god standeth sure, why should you despair of reunion with your wife? |
| 40588 | As things may happen, as things may fall Who knows but that I may be Lady of Bunny Hall?'' |
| 40588 | At that moment I called to mind what Brahmá had said, and I thought,"Why should I not call to the king for aid? |
| 40588 | At that moment a female slave came and said to the king,"Great Sir, how came you to enter this mouth of death? |
| 40588 | Besides, did not he himself take away the sovereignty of the gods from Hiranyáksha, though it descended to him as the elder? |
| 40588 | Besides, what harm can he do us unaided?" |
| 40588 | Bhadrá then said to Vidúshaka;"How did you come to this land?" |
| 40588 | But Gopálaka said to him,"What, my child, do you not suppose that I have all the happiness I desire by thus seeing you? |
| 40588 | But I recovered, and said to myself,"What is the use of bewilderment now? |
| 40588 | But I will tell you a strange fact; listen, for what can I hide from you? |
| 40588 | But Jímútaváhana answered Garuda,"In truth I am a Nága; what is the meaning of this question of yours? |
| 40588 | But Padmávatí thus answered him, Say to my father from me here--"What need of grief? |
| 40588 | But Siva answered him,"How can I possibly have retained your wealth till now? |
| 40588 | But could not the figures be cut in stone, as the Bharhut sculptures are? |
| 40588 | But he hesitated, seeing that it was empty, and then the Yakshas again said to him, smiling--"Subhadatta, do you not understand? |
| 40588 | But he himself again entered the women''s apartments of the palace; who, that is attracted by love and covetousness, thinks of death? |
| 40588 | But he was not able to remove the hump; so he paid down the hundred panas; for who in this world would be able to make straight a hunchbacked man? |
| 40588 | But his friends and relations said to him,"She is not dead, so why do you kill yourself? |
| 40588 | But his ministers roused him by saying to him,''In this transient world what is there that hath permanence? |
| 40588 | But his ministers said to him,"Did Visvámitra, though despondent, abandon life when Menaká had departed after giving birth to Sakuntalá?" |
| 40588 | But his wife Kánchanaprabhá lived in her own city with her daughter; what virtuous wife would disobey her husband''s commands? |
| 40588 | But how are you to search for your lover as he is not to be recognised by any token? |
| 40588 | But how can I associate with a mortal lady, being a Vidyádhara?" |
| 40588 | But how can it be otherwise? |
| 40588 | But how can this be? |
| 40588 | But how can those obtain their wishes, who are deceived by rogues? |
| 40588 | But how comes it, that I am so lucky as to find her here?" |
| 40588 | But if Indra makes himself a partizan[ 646] of Srutasarman, and violently opposes us, how are we to be blamed for it? |
| 40588 | But if she is Rati, where is Káma? |
| 40588 | But it never occurred to him to say to himself--"Who is mortally wounded? |
| 40588 | But the blockhead answered,"How could I drink so much water as this?" |
| 40588 | But the person challenged, being a man not easily abashed, made an appropriate reply,"Why are you perplexed by want of reflection? |
| 40588 | But they, when they saw him fall down terrified, said to him kindly,"Who are you, and how have you managed to fall into this deep well? |
| 40588 | But to whom is reliance upon treacherous people not a source of calamity? |
| 40588 | But was not the fact that he married his son by means of a substitute, in itself sufficient proof that he was a fool and a scoundrel?" |
| 40588 | But what am I saying? |
| 40588 | But what generous man desires to possess a realm, if he must do so by slaying his relations for the sake of this wicked perishable body? |
| 40588 | But what will not men of honour do to prevent their fame from being sullied? |
| 40588 | But when she began to say to the king--"Where, O king, did you go only a moment ago, so as to return with your minister?" |
| 40588 | But when the queen was bent on committing suicide, he consented, for how can men who are attracted by the objects of passion remain in the good path? |
| 40588 | But where has Rati, his companion, gone?" |
| 40588 | But why do I ask, Anangadeva, since I know all about him? |
| 40588 | But why do you wish to abandon the body? |
| 40588 | But why in spite of your better knowledge do you still fall in love with hetæræ? |
| 40588 | But you must by no means enter Pátála, for what advantage will you gain by destroying the snakes at one blow?'' |
| 40588 | But, as Siva has decidedly girded up his loins to shew us favour, what is his power, or what will his reliance upon Vishnu do?" |
| 40588 | But, even supposing he really is my beloved, how can I approach him, now that he is not in his own body, but in another body? |
| 40588 | But, tell me, who are you that you take upon you to instruct me, you son of Ityaka?" |
| 40588 | By the bye, have you not heard what happened to the Bráhman Agnisarman here?" |
| 40588 | Can Siva''s promise be falsified?" |
| 40588 | Can Syandana mean horses, like magni currus Achilli? |
| 40588 | Can all these men be under the influence of an optical delusion?" |
| 40588 | Can he be the very same? |
| 40588 | Can he possibly be that very man? |
| 40588 | Can it be Sávitrí come to bathe in the lake? |
| 40588 | Can it be the god of Love new- created from his ashes without Rati? |
| 40588 | Can not you, without going on pilgrimages, perform in your house noble religious duties, such as charity and so on, which will procure you heaven?" |
| 40588 | Can one fetter a whirlwind with one''s arms? |
| 40588 | Can she be a goddess, for her beauty is more than human?" |
| 40588 | Can she be my beloved herself? |
| 40588 | Can she be the form of the moon? |
| 40588 | Can we avoid the effect of acts done in a previous state of existence? |
| 40588 | Consequently, king, we are afraid to dwell anywhere; for whose mind is at ease after performing deeds of reckless temerity? |
| 40588 | Consider how far off you are from the sea and from that city, and whether the journey is worth taking for the sake of that maiden? |
| 40588 | Consider it yourself? |
| 40588 | Could I bear even to mention the name of another woman? |
| 40588 | Could any one by any artifice be introduced into this palace?" |
| 40588 | Cursed Fate, why did you rescue me from the sea? |
| 40588 | Darling, when this moon of your face is withdrawn, your father will fall into the darkness of grief, and how will he live to old age? |
| 40588 | Did I order you not to eat?" |
| 40588 | Did his heart break through grief at not having won the nymph himself? |
| 40588 | Did not Arundhatí live in friendship with the daughter of king Prithu? |
| 40588 | Did not Menaká leave Sakuntalá in the hermitage of Kanva? |
| 40588 | Did not Nahusha and others of old time obtain the dignity of Indra? |
| 40588 | Did not king Trivikramasena obtain of old time the sovereignty of the Vidyádharas by the favour of a Vetála? |
| 40588 | Did you carry on your back your innocent husband, whom you threw into the river? |
| 40588 | Did you not find those ministers, after they had been separated from you by the curse of the Nága? |
| 40588 | Distant is the time, and the place, and various is the course of Fate; so who knows what will happen to any one here in the meantime? |
| 40588 | Do you not know that such is the nature of the sinful vice of gambling? |
| 40588 | Do you not know that the dice are the sidelong loving looks of the goddess of Ill Luck? |
| 40588 | Do you not see that the death of all of us together is imminent? |
| 40588 | Do you not understand my position, fair one? |
| 40588 | Do you seek to be delivered from the world by binding yourself with the conceit of controversy? |
| 40588 | Do you suppose that Siva, who declared that you should be man and wife, can say what is false? |
| 40588 | Do your kind, for who, that is not foolish, would act[ 359] contrary to the purpose he had undertaken?" |
| 40588 | Does any animal keep his heart outside his body? |
| 40588 | Does he presume to give me orders and ask for my daughter as a tribute? |
| 40588 | Does not the moon delay to shine, when the circle of the sun is eclipsed? |
| 40588 | Does the fruit of the poison- tree of unrighteousness ever ripen sweet?" |
| 40588 | Does time past ever return, O king?" |
| 40588 | Especially are the twilight, the dawn, and Fortune shortlived, disappearing as soon as revealed; where and when have they been seen to abide? |
| 40588 | Even while she was saying this, Muktáphalaketu said to her friend,"What did this young lady say?" |
| 40588 | Even women, who see you,[ 699] are so much in love with your beauty that they desire to become men; so what man would not be a suitor for your hand? |
| 40588 | For Ganesa inflicted on them this curse,''Let them become that on which their minds are fixed?'' |
| 40588 | For a brave man by himself without any support obtains prosperity; have you never heard à propos of this the tale of the brave man?" |
| 40588 | For by his favour I have attained the grace of patience; to whom could I have shown patience, O goddess, if he had not acted thus towards me? |
| 40588 | For he will have a battle with Srutasarman, and who can say what will befall either party in it? |
| 40588 | For how can an evil deed audaciously done, the end of which is not considered through the mind being blinded with excessive hate, help bringing ruin? |
| 40588 | For how can servants refuse the request of an importunate lord? |
| 40588 | For it is suitable to you who possess all powers, but what, I pray, could a feeble creature, like me, do with it?" |
| 40588 | For nothing is unattainable by those who possess endurance; who, my son, will not fail, if he allows his endurance to break down? |
| 40588 | For of what calamities is not the blinding of the mind with excessive greed the cause? |
| 40588 | For of what use is my life, unless I can return having seen that city, and obtain the princess as the prize of the achievement?" |
| 40588 | For see, old age whispers at the root of my ear--''Since this body is perishable, why do you still remain in your house?''" |
| 40588 | For she, being a forest maiden, has no attendants of her own, and what will not all alien servants do for gain, being easily corrupted? |
| 40588 | For the stupid sleep resolutely, how can the understanding sleep? |
| 40588 | For to whom is a treacherous injury done to another likely to be beneficial? |
| 40588 | For what can make heavenly nymphs desire to hang themselves? |
| 40588 | For what can not the grace of the Supreme Lord accomplish? |
| 40588 | For what is not obtained by that? |
| 40588 | For what is the use of life or courage, unless employed to succour the unfortunate?'' |
| 40588 | For what object of desire is there that a resolute man can not obtain, as long as he continues alive? |
| 40588 | For what pleasure can a wise man take in a wicked place, the inhabitants of which are wanting in discrimination? |
| 40588 | For what reliance can be placed on fickle fortunes and fickle women? |
| 40588 | For whence can I obtain for this Rákshasa a victim, such as he has described? |
| 40588 | For which of them does it exist, and which of them exists for it? |
| 40588 | For who can deprive the fire of its tendency to burn? |
| 40588 | For who can escape from the shadow of his own head, or the course of destiny? |
| 40588 | For who gives anything to anybody? |
| 40588 | For who is able to alter the actions of a man in his previous births? |
| 40588 | For who is able to work such unrighteousness in my realm?" |
| 40588 | For who is not deceived by the hypocritically affectionate speeches of a mother? |
| 40588 | For who sees through the deceitfulness of the speeches of women uttered with affected simplicity? |
| 40588 | For who would confine his attention to filling his belly?" |
| 40588 | For whom does not love beguile? |
| 40588 | Gunádhya for his part, when he heard it, was immediately overcome with sorrow; who indeed is not inly grieved when scorned by a competent authority? |
| 40588 | Happen what will, I must give them my splendid elephant, for how can I let a suppliant go away without obtaining his desire, while I live?" |
| 40588 | Has not Providence ordained for you the usual lot of the gambler? |
| 40588 | Has she gone off with it? |
| 40588 | Have I in my delusion eaten an incarnation of a Bodhisattva? |
| 40588 | Have you forgotten the occasion on which I made you king?" |
| 40588 | Have you forgotten? |
| 40588 | Have you have not heard what happened to Pándu?" |
| 40588 | Have you managed to pick up here another set of five maidens?" |
| 40588 | Have you never heard the story of the donkey?" |
| 40588 | Have you not heard on this point the saying of the hermit Vyása? |
| 40588 | Have you not heard the legend of old days with regard to Rukminí? |
| 40588 | Have you not heard the story of king Chiradátri, and his servant named Prasanga?" |
| 40588 | Have you not heard the story of the adorable Bodhisattva in his former birth as a boar? |
| 40588 | Have you not heard the story of the ape that drew out the wedge?" |
| 40588 | Have you not heard, my friend, the story of the ass?" |
| 40588 | Having come to this conclusion, the wily monarch went up to the thief; and the thief said to him with some trepidation,"Who are you, Sir?" |
| 40588 | He asked her;"Who are you, and what lord do you lament?" |
| 40588 | He asked the woman:"Who are you, mother, and why are you standing weeping here?" |
| 40588 | He bowed, and then the king of Vatsa, after welcoming him, immediately asked him with curiosity:"Who are you, and what is your errand here?" |
| 40588 | He flung himself on a bed and said to himself"Can this be my charmer''s face, or a moon that has purged away the spot that defiles its beauty?" |
| 40588 | He has come here also, travelling in an air- going chariot; how can he, a mere man, have such power?" |
| 40588 | He replied"when I told you to use sáma, I meant coaxing and wheedling; what is the propriety of introducing the Veda in a matter of this kind? |
| 40588 | He replied,"I am one who gets his living by carrying burdens, and how am I to know the letters of the king''s name? |
| 40588 | He said to her,"Who are you, and where are you going?" |
| 40588 | He said to him,"Whereabouts here is Khandavataka? |
| 40588 | He said to himself in astonishment,"Who may this lovely one be?" |
| 40588 | He said to himself,"What can this mean? |
| 40588 | He said to me,"Who are you, and how did you reach this uninhabited land?" |
| 40588 | He said to me,''Friend, say, why do you allow yourself to be thus afflicted, though you are wise? |
| 40588 | He said,"If I make it right, what will you give me?" |
| 40588 | He said,"King, tell me, which of those three, who were blinded by passion, was the most infatuated? |
| 40588 | He said,"What is that?" |
| 40588 | He said--"O Tongue, what is this that you have done, through desire of enjoyment? |
| 40588 | He says what is not true: where did we kill his buffalo or eat it?" |
| 40588 | He thought to himself,"Who can this be?" |
| 40588 | He thought to himself--"How can I shew to the queen my face marred with grey hairs like a snow- smitten lotus? |
| 40588 | He thought to himself--"Who are these, and why do they deliberate so long? |
| 40588 | He thought"Where is that Anangaprabhá? |
| 40588 | He thought,"Can this be Samudradatta, and how can he have escaped after falling into the sea? |
| 40588 | He thought,"This is a heavenly bull, so why should I not go to heaven with it?" |
| 40588 | He thought,"What kind of animal is this, that makes such a sound?" |
| 40588 | He thought--"What can the barber do?" |
| 40588 | He was dissatisfied, saying to himself,"How shall I be helped to conquer my enemies by a single village that will rather disgrace me? |
| 40588 | He, according to his previous promise, when thought of, readily came to the minister, and bowed before him and said--"Why am I called to mind?" |
| 40588 | He, astonished, said to her--"Why do you speak thus?" |
| 40588 | He, for his part, thought in his mind, deeming he had come upon Good Fortune in bodily form--"Who is the fortunate man destined to be her bridegroom?" |
| 40588 | Her mother- in- law asked;"How did Saktimatí deliver her husband? |
| 40588 | Here I am bound by magic, and on the floor, but my adversary here is on a seat, and free; what fair controversy can there be between us?" |
| 40588 | His curse has been just now cancelled by virtue of your penance; so why do you now distrust the power of your own austerities? |
| 40588 | His father thereupon said to him,"What does her plainness matter? |
| 40588 | His father, annoyed at his persistence, cursed him and his wives, saying;''What need is there of your going to a wood of ascetics? |
| 40588 | How are we to get her back, and how is she to be married?" |
| 40588 | How came it that, though at first she was averse to a husband, she now showed such an insatiable appetite for husbands? |
| 40588 | How can I act thus? |
| 40588 | How can I give myself to them, when I am a Kshatriya woman? |
| 40588 | How can I live without you?" |
| 40588 | How can a crow and a female swan ever unite? |
| 40588 | How can a servant exist without subsistence?" |
| 40588 | How can a wise person conceal sorrow from friends? |
| 40588 | How can a woman of Kshatriya caste be given to a Súdra weaver? |
| 40588 | How can he have spoken anything unbecoming in speaking according to facts? |
| 40588 | How can he, who confides in a wicked person or a black cobra, enjoy prosperity?" |
| 40588 | How can prosperity befall those who walk in the path trodden by the ignoble? |
| 40588 | How can proud men have happiness in a previous or in a present state of existence? |
| 40588 | How can the mind help being amazed at pictures without walls? |
| 40588 | How can the ungrateful prosper? |
| 40588 | How can women be expected to restrain their speech? |
| 40588 | How can you look with a passionless eye on me who love you so much?" |
| 40588 | How comes it that her husband is now dead, though he has had no illness? |
| 40588 | How comes it that in your parrot condition you know the sástras? |
| 40588 | How comes it that to- night our husband has gone to sleep without any of his wives?" |
| 40588 | How comes it that you are at the same time a religious student, eager for liberation, and a man afflicted with the madness of disputatiousness? |
| 40588 | How comes it that you are now in love with an infamous brigand chief?" |
| 40588 | How comes it that, though you are an elephant, and are subject to the fury of elephants, you speak in this gentle way?" |
| 40588 | How comes it, that you are a young man, whereas these children of yours are old?" |
| 40588 | How could he in his state of bereavement have ever thought of undertaking such a thing, if he had not hoped in that way to recover the queen? |
| 40588 | How could you, son of Vinatá, do this thoughtless deed?" |
| 40588 | How did you reach alone this inaccessible place?" |
| 40588 | How have you come to forget that great principle? |
| 40588 | How is it that I saw you lying dead on a sofa in the golden city, and yet see you here alive?" |
| 40588 | How shall I exist abandoned by thee?" |
| 40588 | How will Mrigánkadatta, who would suffer even in a palace, exist in this desert of burning sand? |
| 40588 | How will your body, that could not endure to be anointed with the powder of yellow sandal- wood, endure the heat of the sun in the middle of the day? |
| 40588 | How will your body, that would suffer even from the touch of the sun''s rays, be able to endure the agony of being devoured by Garuda? |
| 40588 | However in a moment he said to himself,"This is no time for me to despond; why should I not recover firmness and strive to put an end to her curse?" |
| 40588 | However, what afflicted one feels quite patient about an object much desired, even though it is soon to be attained? |
| 40588 | I have been born in this race of fishermen for a very small offence owing to the might of cows, but what can atone for this man''s sin?" |
| 40588 | I have killed this kápálika by the order of king Vikramáditya; pray what have you to do with him?" |
| 40588 | I know this by my magic power; why are you so blinded with wrath that you can not see it? |
| 40588 | I must give it away to my friends, and are not you my friends? |
| 40588 | I said to myself,"Shall I ever again behold her face, which is the Creator''s storehouse of all the nectar of beauty? |
| 40588 | I said,"How are we to look for her, when we do not even know in what direction she has gone?" |
| 40588 | I see: this is why you are dressed so grandly, do not go to her, what have you to do with her? |
| 40588 | I then sat down near the king and asked him this question--"Why, O king, art thou without cause thus despondent?" |
| 40588 | I too am Samyataka the comrade of your beloved: why do you not say something kind to me, as I was cursed for you?" |
| 40588 | I too cut off my head: what is the meaning of my being now alive? |
| 40588 | I was overpowered with excess of joy, and I said to myself,"Can this be mere chance, or is it a dream, or sober waking reality?" |
| 40588 | I, ill- fated wretch, am wonderfully deceived by some strange power; or rather, who on this earth knows what is the nature of destiny?" |
| 40588 | If Fate has carried him off, what is the use of remaining here now? |
| 40588 | If I betake myself to Siva or Vishnu, what value will they attach to me, when they have gods, hermits, and others to worship them? |
| 40588 | If I desert the path of right, who will remain loyal to his duty? |
| 40588 | If I do not obtain her as a wife, what other fruit of my asceticism can I obtain?" |
| 40588 | If it succeeds, well and good; if it does not succeed, wherein am I the worse?" |
| 40588 | If she is a mortal woman, why does she ride upon a lion? |
| 40588 | If so, how is it that she gleams in the day? |
| 40588 | If the glory of generosity, which I have long been acquiring in the worlds, were to wither, what would be the use to me of prosperity, or life?" |
| 40588 | If the sword did this work on me, how are they in fault? |
| 40588 | If this takes place, what difference will there be between gods and men? |
| 40588 | If your agitation is due to pain, then perform good deeds; how can you be so foolish as to desire to incur the pains of hell by suicide?'' |
| 40588 | Immediately those attendants of Madirávatí said to the visitor,"Why do you seem so disturbed in mind, noble lady?" |
| 40588 | In a tank outside that city I saw a woman washing clothes, and I put this question to her,"Where do travellers stay here?" |
| 40588 | In his perplexity he asked,"What does this mean?" |
| 40588 | In illustration of this, listen to this story of Sundarasena, and hear how he endured hardship for the sake of Mandáravatí?'' |
| 40588 | In the meanwhile Nischayadatta came to the ape, and his friend, welcoming him, asked him--"Why do I seem to see you in low spirits to- day? |
| 40588 | In the meanwhile the blind man recovered a little, and the elephant said to him,"Tell me; who are you, and how did you come here, being blind?" |
| 40588 | In the meanwhile the thief, who was hidden there, saw all, and said to himself,"What is this that this wicked woman has done? |
| 40588 | In these words Siva promised me a meal, that is attended with uncertainty, and can not be obtained for a long time, so what must I do, my children?" |
| 40588 | In time he grew old, and desisting from his occupation, he reflected;"What resources have I in the other world? |
| 40588 | In what race was he born? |
| 40588 | Into which hand am I to put the cake?" |
| 40588 | Is he a Siddha or a Vidyádhara? |
| 40588 | Is he the incarnation of the favour of Siva towards me, he being pleased with my song?" |
| 40588 | Is it a dream or a delusion?" |
| 40588 | Is it a dream, magic, or delusion? |
| 40588 | Is it an illusion or a wandering of the mind? |
| 40588 | Is it right for me to plot treachery against the monkey, who is my friend? |
| 40588 | Is she sleeping a sleep from which there is no awaking, or is it a complete delusion on my part? |
| 40588 | Is she the goddess Rati? |
| 40588 | Is the last watch of the night a proper time for paying the first visit to a lady?" |
| 40588 | Is there anything in these three worlds difficult for you to obtain? |
| 40588 | Is this a delusion, or the manifest favour of the goddess?" |
| 40588 | Is this deluding Vetála doing this now in order to waste my time? |
| 40588 | Is water ever really found in desert- mirages? |
| 40588 | It does not deny the state of affairs; besides how is it possible to conceal this trembling of the limbs and this bursting boddice?" |
| 40588 | It is useless thinking of devices to produce fear; what are we ministers, to do with the king?" |
| 40588 | Jímútaváhana said to him:"Who are you? |
| 40588 | Kalávatí came to his side, thinking--"Now that I have been seen, how can I escape, shall I display shame or jealousy?" |
| 40588 | Kesata was terrified at first, but after some time he saw that he had nothing uncanny about him, so he said to him,"Who are you, Sir?" |
| 40588 | Know that my death will immediately follow if you refuse my prayer; in that case where will be your righteousness?'' |
| 40588 | Let him give commands to mortals, but who is he compared with Vidyádharas? |
| 40588 | Look; I am perishing before I reach you; why do you not deliver me?" |
| 40588 | Lovely as she is, if she does not become my wife, what is the profit of my life?" |
| 40588 | Maya said--"Let us do so, what harm is there in this?" |
| 40588 | Moreover you are not mighty, and you are not surrounded by mighty friends, so how can you possibly be capable of vanquishing that rival? |
| 40588 | Moreover, have you not heard the stanza composed by Múladeva? |
| 40588 | Moreover, how can a Kshatriya woman be given to a Vaisya? |
| 40588 | Moreover, how have you forgotten what the goddess was pleased to tell you, when she told the story of the curse of Anangaprabhá? |
| 40588 | Moreover, the king of the Kirátas is awaiting your coming from a distance in accordance with your agreement; how have you come to forget this? |
| 40588 | Moreover, what could he do to you, when you arrived at his court, since you would take your army with you? |
| 40588 | Moreover, where is your witness to prove the fact of the mother having promised her to you? |
| 40588 | My servants told him my cause of woe, and he said,"Why have you, like an unenterprising man, allowed your spirits to sink? |
| 40588 | Now why do you put up with it? |
| 40588 | Of what avail is a candle in the face of the sun?" |
| 40588 | Of what use is this body that brings only pain?" |
| 40588 | Of what use is this kingdom to me, unless it is employed to benefit my fellow- creatures? |
| 40588 | Of what virtuous father do you adorn the family? |
| 40588 | On hearing that, the hen said--"Do not talk so; what comparison is there between you and the sea? |
| 40588 | On the other hand how else can I cure my wife, whom I love more than my life?" |
| 40588 | On the other hand, if she is divine, how can she be seen by such as me? |
| 40588 | One day a serving maid of the name of Mochaniká came to him and said,--Illustrious Sir, unwittingly you have come hither to your death? |
| 40588 | One day Ádityasarman asked her this question by the mouth of that mendicant:"Who knows the proper spell for attracting Sulochaná?" |
| 40588 | Only half one watch of the day has passed: how can it be your time for begging now?" |
| 40588 | Or a second moon roaming through the heaven without a spot on its surface? |
| 40588 | Or are you planet- struck? |
| 40588 | Or can it be Gaurí, who has slipped away from the arms of Siva, and again betaken herself to asceticism? |
| 40588 | Or can it be the beauty of the moon that has taken upon herself a vow, as the moon has set, now that it is day? |
| 40588 | Or has she hidden herself to find out my real feelings, and is making fun of me?" |
| 40588 | Or how could Ayodeha have given his own body to Visvakarman? |
| 40588 | Or is it the presiding goddess of the wood, come to worship the spring?" |
| 40588 | Or is she a nymph of heaven? |
| 40588 | Or is she happiness incarnate in bodily form? |
| 40588 | Or is she the beauty of the moon, having taken shape,[ 489] or the command of Cupid living and walking? |
| 40588 | Or of punishing this wicked woman? |
| 40588 | Or rather on whom does not excessive compliance entail misfortune? |
| 40588 | Or rather who can resist the awful goddess of Destiny, that ever places her foot upon the heads of all men?" |
| 40588 | Or rather who knows the creation of Destiny that is full of so many marvels? |
| 40588 | Or rather, what fault is that miserable Vidyádhara guilty of? |
| 40588 | Or shall I not enter it? |
| 40588 | Or was it because he longed for the sovereign power, and thus was disappointed at the king''s return? |
| 40588 | Or were they both carried off by some being?" |
| 40588 | Or what is this delusion of attributing reality to the creation of your own desire, that has taken possession of your passionate heart? |
| 40588 | Or who has power to enter my harem?" |
| 40588 | Or why do you put out of sight this unalterable nature of things? |
| 40588 | Otherwise, how, being mortals, could they have come to this region of the gods?" |
| 40588 | Otherwise, what is the use of incurring needlessly the guilt of killing a Bráhman?" |
| 40588 | Otherwise, what is the use of this beauty?" |
| 40588 | Our throne has been victorious over its enemies; is there one more powerful in the whole world? |
| 40588 | Poverty makes men steal, and who ever gave up what he had found? |
| 40588 | Powers are strictly limited: can water quench the flame of lightning?" |
| 40588 | Prajnádhya again said to her--"Why do you enter in this sudden way when a man is sleeping at his ease? |
| 40588 | Sasin said,"You fool, what have you to do with her? |
| 40588 | She agreed, and went to Kalyánavarman and told him that falsehood, and he answered:"Lady, I am a merchant''s son, what can I do against the king?" |
| 40588 | She alarmed, said--"Why are we stopped, and why are you outside?" |
| 40588 | She answered him,"How can a pauper, like you, afford this?" |
| 40588 | She exclaimed,"Where have I arrived? |
| 40588 | She exclaimed,"this is strange; how did you guess the meaning of that sign of mine?" |
| 40588 | She faltered out,"Where are you going? |
| 40588 | She for her part thought--"Why is my husband angry without my being guilty; I wonder whether Bálavinashtaka has been at any tricks?" |
| 40588 | She has left my protection and gone elsewhere, how could I endure that?" |
| 40588 | She laughed, and said,"What do you want with her?" |
| 40588 | She reflected--"It is not fitting that I should go to my father''s house after acting thus; what should I say there, and how would people believe me? |
| 40588 | She replied,"Who, noble sir, will give alms to me who am a woman?" |
| 40588 | She said to her husband,"Though I take affectionate care of him, he is nevertheless the strange object you see; what am I to do with him?" |
| 40588 | She said to herself,"Is it possible that he has been reduced to this stage of love''s malady by separation from her?" |
| 40588 | She said--"Can this be the moon, that has swooped down from heaven in pursuit of the goddess of Fortune fallen into a cluster of lotuses of the lake? |
| 40588 | She too endured patiently to be placed on the shoulder of a very loathsome Rákshasa; what will not women do when mastered by affection? |
| 40588 | She with affected grief said to him,"If some one were to slay thee, what would become of me?" |
| 40588 | She, for her part, entertained him, and made him take a seat, and feeling love for him, said,"Who are you, noble sir?" |
| 40588 | She, for her part, when she beheld that king with all the auspicious bodily marks, said to herself,"Who can this exceedingly distinguished man be?" |
| 40588 | She, with heart captivated by the beauty of his eyes said to him,"How came such a handsome man as you to undertake such a severe vow as this? |
| 40588 | Since she does not love her husband, how is it possible that she can love you? |
| 40588 | Siva having thus finished his speech, Mádhava said,"Do not say this, you are honourable, but what fault have I committed in the matter? |
| 40588 | Siva, for his part, after some days said to the chaplain:"How long am I to feast in your house in this style? |
| 40588 | So I went up to him and said,"For what price will you give me this bedstead?" |
| 40588 | So Vidúshaka then became equal to a chieftain, for how can a benefit conferred on great persons fail of bearing fruit? |
| 40588 | So am I not fortunate, since I have such a husband as you, whom princesses fall in love with, that are themselves sought by other kings?" |
| 40588 | So away with delusions?" |
| 40588 | So being compassed about with enemies, where shall I go, what shall I do? |
| 40588 | So far from it, we shall live happily in mutual friendship; but what intercourse can I hold with those others who will be my enemies? |
| 40588 | So first shew me Prasenajit, and then take me there, where the king of Vatsa is; what do I care for my father, or my mother?" |
| 40588 | So he asked a physician named Srutavardhana--"Is there any medicine able to bring about the birth of a son?" |
| 40588 | So he asked the women, after they had filled their pitchers with water, in a courteous manner;"For whom are you taking this water?" |
| 40588 | So he said to him in joke,"Cowherd, is any young woman in love with you, that you sing thus in your rapture, counting the world as stubble?" |
| 40588 | So he went up to him and said,"Who are you, and what are you doing in this solitary place?" |
| 40588 | So he went up to him, with his followers, and said to him;"Reverend sir, why do you live alone in this forest in which there is no hermitage?" |
| 40588 | So how am I to be continually procuring fresh razors? |
| 40588 | So how can I eat you now? |
| 40588 | So how can I marry that Kalingasená?" |
| 40588 | So how can I now make her a recompense, in order that my vow may in course of time be fully accomplished?" |
| 40588 | So how can I revenge myself on him for this ill turn, and how can I reach him who has become a Vidyádhara? |
| 40588 | So how can continual refreshment and eating nourish me?" |
| 40588 | So how can we do otherwise than spare his life? |
| 40588 | So if she will not consent to become my wife, what is the profit of my life? |
| 40588 | So if you touch me by force, I will abandon life, for what woman of good family will injure her husband? |
| 40588 | So is not he a man to whom food ought to be given?" |
| 40588 | So it will be better now to find out whether the strict ascetic on the banks of Siprá named Siva pleases him or not?" |
| 40588 | So let her do what she is doing?" |
| 40588 | So of what comfort is this husband to me? |
| 40588 | So of what use is sovereignty to us? |
| 40588 | So reflecting, he began to reproach that religious student,"Tell me, religious student, what is the meaning of this inconsistent conduct on your part? |
| 40588 | So rise up quickly my friend, let us go; you also will find your wife, if you search for her; who knows the way of Destiny? |
| 40588 | So shall I enter the fire? |
| 40588 | So she said,"Who is this skull- bearer? |
| 40588 | So tell me, king, to which of the two does that wife belong? |
| 40588 | So tell me, king; why are you so persistent about her, though you know all this? |
| 40588 | So tell me, what lands have you wandered through, and what novel sights have you seen?" |
| 40588 | So tell us, wise man, what mean you by embracing that corpse?" |
| 40588 | So that king perished, though of firm soul, being deprived of Unmádiní; but what will become of the lord of Vatsa without Vásavadattá? |
| 40588 | So those Bráhmans perished by making the fatal mistake of creating a lion: for who can give joy to his own soul by raising up a noisome beast? |
| 40588 | So true is it, that intellect always obtains the supremacy, triumphing over valour, indeed in such cases what could courage accomplish? |
| 40588 | So we, O king, ran after him, and cut off his foot; what man of our humble degree is able to disobey the command of a ruler?" |
| 40588 | So what are we to do in this difficulty?" |
| 40588 | So what are you doing here so long? |
| 40588 | So what confidence, your Royal Highness, can be placed in women? |
| 40588 | So what course must I adopt in this emergency?" |
| 40588 | So what have we to do with this matter which has been settled by the lord Siva? |
| 40588 | So what have you to fear? |
| 40588 | So what is the meaning of this love of yours for the bull, O king? |
| 40588 | So what is the use of a sure revelation by a goddess in a dream, when Fate is adverse? |
| 40588 | So what is the use of delay? |
| 40588 | So what is the use of flesh? |
| 40588 | So what is the use of my life? |
| 40588 | So what is the use of my marrying Kalingasená? |
| 40588 | So what is the use of our penetrating the mind of the king of beasts?" |
| 40588 | So what pleasure can wise men take in these perishable objects? |
| 40588 | So where, my prince, have you all remained so long? |
| 40588 | So who is it that you embrace, or who has been bitten by the serpent? |
| 40588 | So why are you so distracted about an event, which was destined to take place? |
| 40588 | So why did you make this attempt yesterday though you were forbidden to do so by me? |
| 40588 | So why do you despond in the midst of this joy?" |
| 40588 | So why do you fear without reason, though you know this well enough?" |
| 40588 | So why do you offer me false comfort?" |
| 40588 | So why do you say that king Súdraka was more heroic than these?" |
| 40588 | So why do you think more highly of Vírabáhu than of the other?" |
| 40588 | So why do you torment yourself about a matter of this kind, which is quite becoming, and can be easily arranged by an ambassador?" |
| 40588 | So why does this base owl, who can not see in the day, deserve a throne? |
| 40588 | So why should I desert such a husband and fall in love with a common fellow? |
| 40588 | So why should I not devise some stratagem for obtaining him?'' |
| 40588 | So why should I not gratify Durgá by sacrificing myself?" |
| 40588 | So why should I stand here and behold their faces?" |
| 40588 | So why should not I do the same by expending my asceticism upon it?" |
| 40588 | So why should there be any delay? |
| 40588 | So why should you grieve? |
| 40588 | So why, my friend, do you weary yourself in vain? |
| 40588 | So with what object, father, do we keep for ourselves such an unfailing wishing- tree, as all these phenomenal conditions are but momentary? |
| 40588 | So, how can he be unsuccessful in fight? |
| 40588 | So, how long am I to retain this wretched life? |
| 40588 | So, if I do not show devotion to my parents, what fruit shall I reap from my body?" |
| 40588 | So, if I have to- day recovered my own wife, and carried her off, what harm have I done?'' |
| 40588 | So, king, why do creatures like you fear a mere sound? |
| 40588 | So, my good sir, what desire have you for me to accomplish for you?" |
| 40588 | So, what is all this outcry that thou art making against Maya, what offence has he committed herein? |
| 40588 | So, why should I not abandon my hopeless life, before I hear of some misfortune happening to my father or to my lover in battle? |
| 40588 | Some one said to him:"Why do you not drink water, though you are thirsty?" |
| 40588 | Srídarsana approached him, and made himself known to him, and then girding up his loins, he said,"Tell me, what shall I do for you?" |
| 40588 | Sundarasena answered the king of the Bhillas,"What does it matter who I am, or whence I come? |
| 40588 | Supposing a second is not born to you, what will you do?" |
| 40588 | Surely he must be some god that has penetrated into this well- guarded room?" |
| 40588 | Tell me the name of the man whose life and property I am to take by way of punishment?" |
| 40588 | Tell me, do you approve of this step or not?" |
| 40588 | Tell me, for why should you distrust loving modest attendants? |
| 40588 | Tell me, friend, what pleasure can wretched bereaved ones, like myself, to whom everything in the world is turned upside down, find in life?" |
| 40588 | Tell us why thou wanderest here alone without that fragrant artillery of thine, and where is that Rati thy constant companion?" |
| 40588 | That Vetála came, as soon as the king called him to mind, and bowing before him said,"Why did you call me to mind, great king? |
| 40588 | That father too embraced him and asked him in the presence of all,--"Do you remember both your lives, my son?" |
| 40588 | That king of beasts said in astonishment,"What is this creature?" |
| 40588 | That moment he summoned me and said,"What does this mean?" |
| 40588 | The Bráhman said,"What am I to do there"? |
| 40588 | The Vetála asks,"Which of these four deaths was the most extraordinary?" |
| 40588 | The Vetála then said,"Why, what did the king do? |
| 40588 | The Yakshí said,"How can I ever, king, recompense you for your benefits? |
| 40588 | The adorable god was asked by Durgá--"Whence, my lord, comes thy delight in skulls and burning- places?" |
| 40588 | The assessors said to Ityaka,"While the father is alive, what authority has the mother? |
| 40588 | The brave man said,"If I had not slain the Rákshasa in fight, who would have brought this maiden back here in spite of all your exertions? |
| 40588 | The bull said to him,"Friend, why are you in this state? |
| 40588 | The fact is they have been devoured in that tree by a demon, and without them what is Sasánkavatí to me, or what is my life worth to me? |
| 40588 | The fact is, I suppose, that stupidity is engrained in a man who muddles his head with the Vedas?" |
| 40588 | The first said,"This Bráhman gave me a cow with a sacrificial fee: why will he not receive it from my hand, when I offer to give it back to him?" |
| 40588 | The fool said"Who will teach me?" |
| 40588 | The giant awoke and called"Are you asleep?" |
| 40588 | The jackal answered him;"The creature never possessed ears or a heart,--otherwise how could he have returned when he had once escaped?" |
| 40588 | The jackal answered,"What can be healthy with a servant? |
| 40588 | The jackal said,"Why do you endure all this toil? |
| 40588 | The king asked her the reason, and she said with apparent reluctance--"My husband, why do you endure patiently the disgrace of your house? |
| 40588 | The king asked,"Whence comes this sound of a drum?" |
| 40588 | The king inclining before him, said to him,"Who art thou, and why hast thou descended from heaven?" |
| 40588 | The king said to Sanvarasiddhi,"Have you really seen that city?" |
| 40588 | The king said to him,"Wicked Bráhman, do you try to kill a woman, and for her sake set on fire your neighbours''houses? |
| 40588 | The king said,"Who art thou, and why dost thou weep?" |
| 40588 | The king thought--"Why has she put herself in this position?" |
| 40588 | The king welcomed the Bráhman who blessed him in return, and then Vibhíshana said,"Bráhman, how did you manage to reach this country?" |
| 40588 | The king woke up in a state of alarm, crying out,"What is the meaning of this?" |
| 40588 | The merchant''s wife then and there said to him,"Who are you?" |
| 40588 | The minister said,"This is strange, my son; what can you do with this head of mine? |
| 40588 | The object of my vow is, that that king may be announced by the heralds as waiting at the door; do you assist me in that?" |
| 40588 | The officers of the court said,"This is impossible, how could a kite carry off a boy?" |
| 40588 | The one said,''My friend, why is Kalávatí distressed to- day?'' |
| 40588 | The queen Madanamanchuká playfully said to him on his return,"Where have you been, my husband? |
| 40588 | The queen said to him--"She was proclaimed by the gods as the destined wife of Naraváhanadatta, our future emperor, why is she not given to him?" |
| 40588 | The queen said,"How comes it that our son, though born in a royal family, has fallen in love with a girl of the lowest[ 620] caste?" |
| 40588 | The second is a Vaisya, and what is the use of his knowing the language of cattle, and so on? |
| 40588 | The sons said,"Why did the fish laugh?" |
| 40588 | The teacher said,"What sort of creature is a cat? |
| 40588 | The thief answered her,"What do I care for those gems, fair one? |
| 40588 | The thief said;"I will carry off the oxen first, for if you lay hold of the Bráhman first, and he wakes up, how can I get the yoke of oxen?" |
| 40588 | The two Bráhman youths said with astonishment to one another,--"What does this mean?" |
| 40588 | The very horse, for which I abandoned my native land, is dead; so how can we travel on foot through this forest at night?" |
| 40588 | The warder said:"When a man''s head is cut off, does he live even if you give him a hundred heads?" |
| 40588 | The young merchants asked--"How have you obtained untold wealth by the assistance of a pupil?" |
| 40588 | Then Asokadatta said,"Who would go there at night? |
| 40588 | Then Bhímabhata said to her,"Fair one, why do you allow your heart to exhibit shame, though its feelings have been already revealed? |
| 40588 | Then Brahmá answered him,--"How can I help being pleased with one, who fights for so long with this Prabhása? |
| 40588 | Then Brahmá said,"Am I not also anxious to bring about the same end? |
| 40588 | Then Chirajívin said to the king of the owls,"What is the use to me of life, now that I am in this state? |
| 40588 | Then Chirajívin said,"What truce? |
| 40588 | Then Chitragupta, who was disguised as a Bráhman, said,"Why do you neglect Siva, and Vishnu, and the other gods, and devote yourself to Chitragupta?" |
| 40588 | Then Devasmitá seeing her, of her own accord sent a maid, and had her brought in, thinking to herself,"What can this person be come for?" |
| 40588 | Then Gautama said to Ahalyá;"Who is here?" |
| 40588 | Then Gomukha, who read his master''s soul, began to ask her attendants--"Who is she, and whose daughter is she?" |
| 40588 | Then Gunasarman said--"King, who told you such a falsehood, who painted this aerial picture?" |
| 40588 | Then Harasvámin standing below called all the Bráhmans who were above, one by one, by name, and said to them,"What delusion is this, Bráhmans? |
| 40588 | Then I and all my relations came in, hearing the cries, and when we saw her, we said,"Tell us, what is the matter?" |
| 40588 | Then I fearlessly drew my dagger with a frown, and said to her,"Have you seen such a man as this?" |
| 40588 | Then I said again to him,"My fine fellow, what will you do with them?" |
| 40588 | Then I said to him,"Who are you, and how do you know that?" |
| 40588 | Then I said,"Fair one, what is your cause of alarm? |
| 40588 | Then I said,"I will take it off your hands; what price do you want for it?" |
| 40588 | Then Jímútaváhana said to an attendant of hers,"What is your friend''s auspicious name, and what family does she adorn?" |
| 40588 | Then Karataka said--"What business is this of ours? |
| 40588 | Then Kálarátri said;"If you know what is right, then grant me my life, for what righteousness is greater than the saving of life?" |
| 40588 | Then Mahásena said to Sundarasena,"My son, why do you so improperly conceal this attachment of yours? |
| 40588 | Then Mahásena, coming in, and seeing her in that condition, said--"What is this, my beloved? |
| 40588 | Then Mrigánkadatta said to the Bráhman Srutadhi,"Why do you remain silent, Bráhman, like one taking no interest in the proceedings? |
| 40588 | Then Mrigánkadatta''s friend Srutadhi, observing that the Bhilla had come with his warder, said to him,"Why should you play dice? |
| 40588 | Then Mrigánkadatta, after his minister had been somewhat restored, said to him;"Tell me, my friend, what adventures have you had?" |
| 40588 | Then Nischayadatta said to her with eyes gushing with tears--"Wicked female, how could you thus deceive me who reposed confidence in you? |
| 40588 | Then Padmávatí, in her agitation, said to that friend,"Why do you weary yourself in vain? |
| 40588 | Then Prachandasakti said to that elephant,"Now great- souled one, tell me your history; who are you? |
| 40588 | Then Rambhá said to him sarcastically--"I suppose, mortal, you know this heavenly dance, do you not?" |
| 40588 | Then Rudrasarman said to that second wife,"How comes it that you have neglected this child of mine that has lost its mother?" |
| 40588 | Then Saktideva said to her,"Then why all this perturbation? |
| 40588 | Then Sangataka said, King why do you grieve without cause? |
| 40588 | Then Siddhikarí, feigning ignorance, said to the Domba,"How is the noose slipped round the neck? |
| 40588 | Then Siva said to him,"Why have you gone through so much toil and hardship? |
| 40588 | Then Siva said,"How can I take a wife, for I will not marry a woman from any low family?" |
| 40588 | Then Srídarsana woke up in his own palace, and seeing himself decked with the ornaments of a lady, he thought,"What does this mean? |
| 40588 | Then Srídarsana, knowing that his rival was possessed by a Vetála, said to him,"What proof is there that you are his friend? |
| 40588 | Then Vidyunmálá disappeared, and Ádityasarman asked that Yakshiní, whom the hermit had obtained,"Is there any Yakshiní superior to Vidyunmálá?" |
| 40588 | Then Vindhyaketu, having consoled them both, said to that merchant,"How came you to carry off the wife of one who confided in you?" |
| 40588 | Then Víravara said,--"Then, goddess, tell it me at once, in order that I may quickly put it in operation: otherwise what is the use of my life?" |
| 40588 | Then a certain makara dwelling in that lake, seeing him carrying off fish, said:--"Whither are you taking the fish?" |
| 40588 | Then a feast was made, and the king recovered his normal condition, and said in private to his minister,--"Did you observe the devotion of Kumudiká?" |
| 40588 | Then all the by- standers were bewildered thinking--"What can this mean?" |
| 40588 | Then he asked the hermit in his joy the following question,"Tell me, reverend sir, how was she my wife before?" |
| 40588 | Then he cried aloud,"Who asked the king for water?" |
| 40588 | Then he said to his general Harisikha:"What may be the cause of this sudden great noise of drums outside?" |
| 40588 | Then he said to the king,"Did you hear what the crow said? |
| 40588 | Then his friend said,"How will that hermit''s pupil, who has been made your vehicle by a curse, submit to me?" |
| 40588 | Then his minister Gomukha, after all had sat down, asked her,"Who are you, auspicious one, and for what reason have you come here?" |
| 40588 | Then his relations came there, and after they had seen his body, they said,"If he was killed by thieves, why did they not carry off anything?" |
| 40588 | Then his son said;"Why surely we may see a fire burning near us on this side, and it is very large, so why should I not go there and warm my body? |
| 40588 | Then his teacher said to him,"My son, I am afraid you have made some mistake in this incantation, otherwise how can the fire have become cool to you? |
| 40588 | Then his wife Asrutá asked him again and again lovingly,"Tell me, my husband, why do you remain so long fixed in thought?" |
| 40588 | Then how can I make him my son- in- law and my submissive ally? |
| 40588 | Then how shall I make it current? |
| 40588 | Then in astonishment I asked Prapanchabuddhi--"Why do you court me with such splendid jewels?" |
| 40588 | Then in his astonishment he asked them"Why?" |
| 40588 | Then king Brahmadatta said to those celestial swans,"How did Muktáphalaketu kill that Vidyuddhvaja? |
| 40588 | Then my father gave me a kick, and said,''Why do you go to sleep?'' |
| 40588 | Then one of those young Bráhmans said to him respectfully,"King, how can we tell our secret in the presence of a man of your worth? |
| 40588 | Then queen Gunavará delighted, said to him,"My son, what has not that Rúpasikhá done for you? |
| 40588 | Then she answered him--"If it is to be so, why should we not go there immediately in this chariot of yours that flies through the air? |
| 40588 | Then she said decidedly,"How can I return to that spiritless avaricious man, who sold me to another man without the excuse of distress?" |
| 40588 | Then she said to Somaprabhá--"Old age has chosen him for her own, what other female will choose him?" |
| 40588 | Then she, seeing that his mind was troubled, asked him anxiously,"My husband, why are you seized to- day with a sudden fit of despondency?" |
| 40588 | Then that chaplain went on to say to him,"Do not say that, great Bráhman, do you not know the due order of the periods in the life of a Bráhman? |
| 40588 | Then that good man said to me,"Why, though wise, are you bewildered? |
| 40588 | Then that second person said to Srídarsana,"I will not let the dead man go; I am his friend; what have you to do with him?" |
| 40588 | Then the Vetála said,"Was not Víravara greater, for his equal is not found on this earth? |
| 40588 | Then the Vidyádharas said to him,"Tell us, king; who is to occupy half your throne, and to be anointed as queen consort?" |
| 40588 | Then the Yaksha her husband said to her;"What have you seen?" |
| 40588 | Then the blockhead exclaimed;"I have been cheated; why did I not eat this cake, which has allayed the pangs of hunger, first of all? |
| 40588 | Then the boy said to me,"Did not Vishnu, as soon as he was born, stride across the earth, in the form of a dwarf, and make it tremble? |
| 40588 | Then the cunning Múladeva, who was near the king, said,"King, are there no good women, though some are bad? |
| 40588 | Then the eager king said to her with an affectionate manner,"Worthy lady, what auspicious family is adorned by this friend of yours? |
| 40588 | Then the eldest said,"What, do you not know how fastidious I am? |
| 40588 | Then the hermit Nárada came and said to the king,"Prince, what means this striving after things out of your reach, though you know policy? |
| 40588 | Then the heroic king answered in a carelessly negligent tone,"This garden is sufficient entertainment for me: what other entertainment do I require?" |
| 40588 | Then the hunter asked him"Are you Srídatta?" |
| 40588 | Then the king at last comforted his daughter, and said to her,"Why did you abandon, my daughter, the happiness of a palace, and act thus? |
| 40588 | Then the king being astonished said,"Then how have you managed to come so far on foot?" |
| 40588 | Then the king full of curiosity assembled all the citizens, and said to that lady disguised as a merchant,"What is your petition?" |
| 40588 | Then the king knew that it was possessed by a Vetála, and said without flinching,"Why do you laugh? |
| 40588 | Then the king of the owls said to another minister, named Vakranása,"What ought we to do? |
| 40588 | Then the king said to his daughter Anangarati,"My daughter, which of these four heroes do you prefer?" |
| 40588 | Then the king said to them,"Who are you, and why are you in the forest?" |
| 40588 | Then the king told her who he was, and why he had come; then he said to her,"Tell me, who are you, fair one? |
| 40588 | Then the king, in great despondency, said to Asokakarí, who was wounded,"What is the meaning of this? |
| 40588 | Then the lion said,"What is the use of eating such a small creature as you?" |
| 40588 | Then the maiden said,"King, do not speak thus, I am not of a deceitful disposition, and who would think of cheating one so worthy of respect? |
| 40588 | Then the merchant''s son said,"Do not take the necklace, my friend, it is an illusion, else why do not these soldiers see it?" |
| 40588 | Then the minister Sumantra said to the king to comfort him,"Why do you appear as if you do not understand the matter? |
| 40588 | Then the musician came and asked the rich man for the panas, but he said;"What did you give me, that I should make you a return? |
| 40588 | Then the other said,"I did not receive it first, and I did not ask for it, then why does he wish to make me receive it by force?" |
| 40588 | Then the others who were there laughed, and said to him,"Why should he speak? |
| 40588 | Then the prince said to Dridhabuddhi,"Who can this be? |
| 40588 | Then the queen said to him,"Of what nature was that tale?" |
| 40588 | Then the thief said,"How can I, who am a thief, let you go?" |
| 40588 | Then they answered me;"Why do you ask such a question? |
| 40588 | Then they put this question to Ityaka,"Now do you tell us why you carried her off?" |
| 40588 | Then they said;"Why fret yourself? |
| 40588 | Then why do you speak thus?" |
| 40588 | Then, being reduced to poverty, he said to his wife;"My dear, how can I, who am reduced from riches to poverty, live among my relations? |
| 40588 | Then, in confidential conversation, Manorathaprabhá put the following question to Makarandiká;"Fair one, why do you not wish to be married?" |
| 40588 | There an old gambler said to the others,"This fellow is all but dead; so what is the good of throwing him into a well now? |
| 40588 | There he remained performing his duties with anxious mind, which seemed ever to ask him, why he left his wife there in a state of intoxication? |
| 40588 | There he saw a great many heaps of bones, and he said to Mitrávasu,"What creatures are these whose bones are piled up here?" |
| 40588 | There is war between the crows and the owls from time immemorial; who will go to them? |
| 40588 | There, in the midst of great rejoicing Dírghadarsin remained despondent; how can good ministers be happy, when their lord''s vices are incurable? |
| 40588 | Therefore take him with you: what harm can there be in it, he is your brother?" |
| 40588 | Thereupon Vámadatta told him his whole story from the beginning, and his guest said to him,"What is the use of this persistent revenge? |
| 40588 | Thereupon a Rákshasa came with a wand in his hand, and said to him,"Mortal, why have you sat down here on the king''s throne?" |
| 40588 | Thereupon his friend went on to say to him,"Then let this guest come with you; is he not our friend also? |
| 40588 | They said to him,"Who are you, friend, and who is this lady, and where are you going?" |
| 40588 | They said to one another;"Why should we not ask this holy cat here to declare what is just?" |
| 40588 | They were announced by the warder and introduced, and then king Mahávaráha asked them in the presence of Anangarati;"What are your names? |
| 40588 | Thinking thus, he was about to enter the fire to purify himself from guilt, when Jímútaváhana said to him:"King of birds, why do you despond? |
| 40588 | This is that very Jímútaváhana, who sacrifices his life for others, the renown of whose glory pervades all these three worlds? |
| 40588 | Thus reflecting, the king sent for that excellent bard, and said to him,"How is it, my good friend, that you are never seen in the palace?" |
| 40588 | Thus she said, and he was astonished, exclaiming,"What can this mean?" |
| 40588 | To come to the kite; what offence did he commit in bringing his natural food which he had happened to find, and eating it, when he was hungry? |
| 40588 | To what man of great merit in a former life is she to be given in marriage? |
| 40588 | To what use can you put it? |
| 40588 | To whom am I betrothed? |
| 40588 | To whom can I give anything, and what?'' |
| 40588 | To whom is not association with the good a cause of exaltation? |
| 40588 | To whom is not the attractive object called woman the cause of misfortune? |
| 40588 | To whom is not the scorning of wise words bitter in its after- taste? |
| 40588 | To whom shall I give it?" |
| 40588 | Tárávaloka said to himself,"What do Bráhmans mean by asking for a mighty elephant? |
| 40588 | Unless you are one of these, how could you talk in this wild way? |
| 40588 | Vidúshaka let him go and said,"Who are you, and what are you about here?" |
| 40588 | Was not I swooped down on by him and married by force, after he had seen a carved likeness of me and been overcome by love? |
| 40588 | Was not even Siva disturbed long ago when he beheld Tilottamá, whom the Creator made by taking an atom from all the noblest beings? |
| 40588 | Was not the Chandála Trisanku carried to heaven by Visvámitra? |
| 40588 | Was she not carried off by Vishnu after she had been given to the king of Chedi? |
| 40588 | Wast thou not seen to be charming as a boy, and when growing up, the terror of thy foes? |
| 40588 | We bowed before her and asked her,''Where have you been, honoured lady, and what have you seen there strange?'' |
| 40588 | We said to him,''Who is this lady, and where are you taking her?'' |

| 40588 | When Gunasarman said this, the queen continued,"Why do you possess in vain this beauty and skill in accomplishments? |
| 40588 | When Gunádhya had said this, Kánabhúti asked,"Why, my lord, was the king called Sátaváhana?" |
| 40588 | When Harisikha said this, Gomukha said again--"Why should we tell any out- of- the- way story? |

| 40588 | When I have conversed with you gods, how can I afterwards bear to converse with gamblers? |
| 40588 | When I heard that, I answered that noble Bráhman,"What use can I make of Vetálas, now that I am separated from Mrigánkadatta?" |
| 40588 | When I said this they all exclaimed in wrath,--''Who is he that sends us this haughty command? |
| 40588 | When I said this to the king, he became anxious and reflected--"Can she really be a witch? |
| 40588 | When Indumatí said this, the queen answered her,"How can I take this from your mistress now that she is in trouble?" |
| 40588 | When Jímútaváhana saw that, he said to his father,"Father, what other has might, when thou hast taken up arms? |
| 40588 | When Jívadatta heard that, he was astonished, and reflected in his own mind--"Can Anangaprabhá have come here, or is this woman a witch?" |
| 40588 | When Kalingasená refused, he went as he came; but why should he not have now come secretly and carried her off by his magic power? |
| 40588 | When Kalávatí heard that, she said,"How is it fitting for me to do this? |
| 40588 | When Kalávatí said this, Mahalliká answered--"When I spoke to you kindly, why do you answer in such an unkind and spiteful way, shameless girl? |
| 40588 | When Mahalliká heard this from their mouth, she said,''Has he been seen by you, and is your heart attached to him?'' |
| 40588 | When Marubhúti heard this speech of the queen''s, he said;"Queen, how can mortals ever attain this good fortune? |
| 40588 | When Maya heard this, he said--"We are not forcing on war, but if Indra violently makes war on us, tell me, how can we remain passive? |
| 40588 | When Mukharaka heard this, he said to the maiden, without the least trepidation,"Who are you? |
| 40588 | When Muktáphalaketu heard this, he said to her with eager excitement,"Who is she? |
| 40588 | When Mánasavega took away queen Madanamanchuká by his magic power, who amused you impatient of separation, and how did he do it?" |
| 40588 | When Pingalaka said this, Damanaka said:"King, being thirsty, you went to drink water; so why did you return without drinking, like one despondent?" |
| 40588 | When Rúpavatí heard that, she came up quickly and said,"Eat me, for, if my husband is eaten, what will become of me?" |

| 40588 | When Srutadhi said this to the prince, he answered him;"How can this be? |
| 40588 | When Srídarsana heard this, he said,"How can I leave this place without that sorcerer? |
| 40588 | When Sukhadhana heard this, he said--"Then let us fight in single combat, what need is there of retainers? |
| 40588 | When Sundarasena and Vindhyaketu heard this, they said to themselves"Can these be that merchant and Mandáravatí?" |
| 40588 | When Sundarasena heard that, he thought to himself,"Can this really be that beloved of mine?" |
| 40588 | When Súrasena''s wife said this to him, he replied,"How can I help going, when the king summons me? |
| 40588 | When Súryaprabha heard this, he said to her with a downcast expression--"My beloved, you are very magnanimous, but how can I do this?" |
| 40588 | When Tapantaka said this, Harisikha said in his turn,"Have you not heard what happened in this way to Devadása?" |
| 40588 | When Tapodatta saw that, he broke his silence, and asked him out of curiosity--"Bráhman, why do you do this unceasingly?" |
| 40588 | When Yajnasvámin, in Bhímapura, heard this, he said to Kesata,"Why do you utter this despondent speech? |
| 40588 | When Yama heard this, he said to Sinhavikrama;"Tell me, which will you take first, your happiness or your misery?" |
| 40588 | When Yamasikha heard that, he said to him,"Then tell me, what kind of power has that king?" |
| 40588 | When even gods have to endure so much suffering by associating with the wives of others, what must be the result of it to inferior beings? |
| 40588 | When he gave her this order, she began to weep, and the friend came in, and said to her,"What is the matter?" |
| 40588 | When he had been thus admonished, he offered water to his parents, and put another question to that science,"Where is my uncle Gopálaka now? |
| 40588 | When he had given his friends this lesson, they abandoned discontent, the source of crime; to whom is not association with the good improving? |
| 40588 | When he had thus ascertained her wishes, he made her his wife: when two are of one mind, what more does secret love require? |
| 40588 | When he heard that, Bhogavarman was filled with wonder, and said to him,"What does all this mean? |
| 40588 | When he heard that, Sarvavarman suddenly exclaimed in a fit of jealousy--"How can a man accustomed to enjoyment endure hardship for so long? |
| 40588 | When he heard that, he said in answer to the water- snake,--"My friend, who are you?" |
| 40588 | When he heard that, he was amazed and began to murmur--"How can I have slain a Bráhman, my sovereign?" |
| 40588 | When he heard that, the hermit asked him out of curiosity--''What have you discovered?'' |
| 40588 | When he heard that, the king eagerly asked his minister;"When there are other cardinal points, why do kings first march towards the East?" |
| 40588 | When he heard this, Putraka said--"What is the use of fighting? |
| 40588 | When he heard this, he told his story, and asked her in turn,"Tell me, who are you and what is your business in this wood?" |
| 40588 | When he said that, Gomukha was delighted and said to him--"King, you are favoured by the gods; what is difficult to you? |
| 40588 | When he said this, Agnidatta answered him, smiling,"If even you show so much infatuation, what are we to expect from others? |
| 40588 | When he said this, Damayantí asked him--"If it is so, how did you become deformed?" |
| 40588 | When he said this, Gomukha replied to him smiling,"Do princes reprove with their own mouths an ill- behaved servant? |
| 40588 | When he said this, Raktáksha laughed and said to him;"By the favour of our master you will be well enough off: what need is there of fire? |
| 40588 | When he said this, all the ministers laughed at him, and Naraváhanadatta said to the minister Marubhúti:"What are you thinking about, you fool? |
| 40588 | When he said this, she answered, as fate would have it,"Why do you boast? |
| 40588 | When he said this, she, being afraid, said,"What does that matter to you? |
| 40588 | When he saw Chandrasvámin, he said to him,"Who are you?" |
| 40588 | When he saw us, he advanced towards us, and said kindly to me,"Who are you, my good sir; and who is this lady; and why have you come here?" |
| 40588 | When he told the younger brothers this, they laughed, and said to him,"If you see our duty so clearly, why do you not see that your own is the same?" |
| 40588 | When her father heard this he said,"My daughter, what is this that you say? |
| 40588 | When his friends heard that, they said,"How did you come into the world?" |
| 40588 | When his mother said this to him, the prince answered her;"Who will respect me if I go there without attendants?" |
| 40588 | When king Vikramasakti heard this, he thought,"Certainly this is true, if he were any other, how could he enter this carefully guarded tent? |
| 40588 | When king Vikramasakti saw this, he suspected some glamour of malignant demons, and he said to me apprehensively"What is the meaning of this?" |
| 40588 | When one of his sons died, he killed another, saying, How could this child go such a long journey alone? |
| 40588 | When she arrived there, Makarandiká welcomed her, and seeing Somaprabha, asked,"Who is this?" |
| 40588 | When she heard that, she said to him,"Whence can I procure another golden lotus? |
| 40588 | When she heard this, she said:"If this is your intention, why do you ask me? |
| 40588 | When she said this in her pain, her friend answered her,"What would not I do for your sake? |
| 40588 | When she said this, Mrigánkavatí went on slowly to say,"Friend, I love you as my life, so why should I not say what I think it is time to reveal? |
| 40588 | When she said this, her confidante answered,"Why do you say this? |
| 40588 | When she said this, her ladies- in- waiting said to her,"If you know this to be the case, princess, why do you not speak to him? |
| 40588 | When she saw him, she reflected for a moment,"Who can this being of celestial appearance be? |
| 40588 | When she spoke with this settled purpose, Víravara said to her;"Do so, what can I say against it? |
| 40588 | When she thus lamented, the young man her son said to her,"I am afflicted enough, as it is, mother; why do you afflict me more? |
| 40588 | When that hermit with his wives said that, Indra was abashed with shame and fear, and Aditi said--"What is that Srutasarman like? |
| 40588 | When the Bráhman heard that, he laughed, and went on to say to me,"Do you not know that you can obtain from a Vetála all that you desire? |
| 40588 | When the Bráhman heard this, he said--"If the limit of my life is attained, why do you not take me? |
| 40588 | When the Bráhman''s sons who were in the tree, saw this, they said to one another,"Who can this be? |
| 40588 | When the Rákshasí said this to her children, they asked her,"If the disease is discovered and removed, will that king live, mother? |
| 40588 | When the Vetála heard this, he said to him reproachfully,"Tell me, king, how can you make out that the general was not his superior? |
| 40588 | When the Vidyádhara maiden had said this, Somaprabha said to her,"Then, why do you remain alone, where is that female attendant of yours?" |
| 40588 | When the ambassador heard this from Kalingasena, he said to him,"How can you, being a servant, dare to set yourself up against your master? |
| 40588 | When the bard had carefully scanned the city delineated there, he was astonished, and said,"I wonder who can have drawn this city? |
| 40588 | When the brother- in- law heard this, he said to him, in order to dissuade him,"How can so many of us approach the goddess empty- handed?" |
| 40588 | When the chief said--"Who are you?" |
| 40588 | When the daughter of Prahláda heard that, she answered her friend pensively,''What marriage for me? |
| 40588 | When the earth heard this, she said,--"Who is as brave as you, and as devoted to his master? |
| 40588 | When the eldest brother said this, his younger brothers said to him,"Sir, why are you, though wise, afflicted with pain merely because you are poor? |
| 40588 | When the eldest brother said this, the two younger ones answered him,"If you hesitate about taking it, why should not we?" |
| 40588 | When the goat heard this, he was astonished, and remained silent, saying to himself,"How can this mere mortal know so much about me?" |
| 40588 | When the gods heard that, they said--"All of us have sons here that have been slain, or are being slain, so how can we help fighting? |
| 40588 | When the gods said this to Vishnu, he answered them,"Why, do I not know that my regulations are broken by that Asura? |
| 40588 | When the hermit heard that, he said to Dharmavyádha in his astonishment,--"How come you to have such knowledge, being a seller of flesh?" |
| 40588 | When the hermit said this to Chandrasvámin, he answered,"Reverend sir, I am a Bráhman; how can I eat a part of your alms?" |
| 40588 | When the holy one asked the gods how they prospered, they humbly said to him,"What prosperity can be ours, O god, as long as Vidyuddhvaja is alive? |
| 40588 | When the jackal said this, the bull again said to him--"Why do you seem so despondent to- day, my friend, tell me?" |
| 40588 | When the king heard it, he recovered his memory, and said to him,"How do you know me, who am tossed with the wind of separation?" |
| 40588 | When the king heard that, he said,"Villain, if it is not true, how did you know that the poison was in the dish of rice?" |
| 40588 | When the king heard that, he said:"Have you that portrait with you?" |
| 40588 | When the king heard that, he thought to himself,"What harm can it do? |
| 40588 | When the king heard this, he said--"How could a lady of birth and rank do such a deed? |
| 40588 | When the king of Kalinga heard this, he was very angry, and he said,"Who is this king Vikramáditya? |
| 40588 | When the king of Vatsa said this, Yaugandharáyana answered,"My lord, how could Kalingasená consent to this impropriety? |
| 40588 | When the king of the Bhillas saw him, he half recognised him, and being terrified, said to him,"Tell me, who are you, and whence do you come?" |
| 40588 | When the king said this, Mandaradeva answered him,"Of what profit is my life to me, now that I have been saved in war by a woman? |
| 40588 | When the king said this, his courtiers exclaimed--"Paint the king: what is the use of painting others, ugly in comparison with him?" |
| 40588 | When the king said this, his minister answered him;"Why, king, do you suppose that courage and not policy ensures success? |
| 40588 | When the king saw this, he was bewildered, and said to his own Bráhmans;"What does this mean? |
| 40588 | When the lion had despatched the jackal with these words, he went to the donkey and said;"Why did you run away, sir? |
| 40588 | When the lion heard that, he lashed his tail, and his eyes became red with anger, and he said:"Who is that second lion? |
| 40588 | When the lion said this, Damanaka answered him;"Being valiant, O king, why do you wish to leave the wood for so slight a reason? |
| 40588 | When the minister Yaugandharáyana heard this, he said to her--"Be composed, for how could this happen, queen, while I am alive? |
| 40588 | When the minister heard this, he said--"King, why did that mendicant court you? |
| 40588 | When the minister said this to him, the Bráhman- Rákshasa answered,"Why should I not by some artifice cause her to fall or slay her?" |
| 40588 | When the old woman heard that, she cast her sorrowful eyes all round the horizon, and cried aloud,"I am undone; who will deliver my son?" |
| 40588 | When the parrot had recited this sloka, it began to reflect, and said again,"What do you wish to know? |
| 40588 | When the prince heard this from the mouth of the female ascetic, he said,"Mother, how are we to get a sight of her beauty, which is so surpassing?" |
| 40588 | When the prince saw that, he said to the minister''s son,"What is the meaning of this marvel?" |
| 40588 | When the princess heard him singing such songs, as he danced, she said to me,''What does this fellow mean? |
| 40588 | When the princess heard this, she sighed, and slowly told the following tale;"Why should I distrust you of all people? |
| 40588 | When the princess''s attendant said this to her, she answered her,"My friend, though I know all this, what am I to do? |
| 40588 | When the queen Vásavadattá heard that, she said to the king--"Great king, why do you suddenly say this now? |
| 40588 | When the sons heard that, they were not able to persuade the king of the truth, for when a ruler is bent on violence, who can convince him? |
| 40588 | When the sun has risen, do the other luminaries give light? |
| 40588 | When the villain said this, those servants answered him,"What is there to fear in this? |
| 40588 | When the wicked woman said this to him, he entered the cave; what room is there for discernment in the heart of one blinded with love? |
| 40588 | When they had sat down, I put this question to the Yakshí,"Goddess, who are these maidens, and what is the meaning of this golden deer?" |
| 40588 | When they heard it, they said,"Who can tell how this matter is in the mind of Destiny? |
| 40588 | When they heard that, they said to her--''We saw him from the top of the palace, and what woman is there that a sight of him would not captivate?'' |
| 40588 | When they heard that, they said:"We have seen you, the choicest jewel in that town; what more do we require? |
| 40588 | When they heard this speech of their sister''s, Vatsa and Gulma said,"What confidence can we repose in all this?" |
| 40588 | When they replied,"No, master,"the merchant went to bed, exclaiming,"How are we to drink water in the latter part of the night?" |
| 40588 | When they said this to Vasubhúti, he said,"What course is this which you suggest? |
| 40588 | When they said this, the daughter of the king of the Asuras answered them,''Why is it not proper? |
| 40588 | When they were about to fly away, one crow said,"I am so hungry; where shall I get something to eat?" |
| 40588 | Where are my little sons?" |
| 40588 | Where can I find[ 260] such dear friends as you?" |
| 40588 | Where can one be found? |
| 40588 | Where can that master of mine be gone? |
| 40588 | Where did you see my beloved Madanamanchuká? |
| 40588 | Where has she gone? |
| 40588 | Where have you been all this time?" |
| 40588 | Where is Vinítamati? |
| 40588 | Where is it now to them? |
| 40588 | Where is that sword? |
| 40588 | Where shall I go, ill- starred as I am? |
| 40588 | Where shall I look for him? |
| 40588 | Where too are those attendants of mine? |
| 40588 | Where, I ask, are those our predecessors who kept it so strenuously, exclaiming,''It is mine, it is mine?'' |
| 40588 | Whereupon Sinhabala said to us--''This is untrue, for have not the gods and Indra girded up their loins to support the cause of Srutasarman?'' |
| 40588 | While Garuda was thus musing, Jímútaváhana said to him;"King of birds, why do you desist? |
| 40588 | While the guards were exclaiming in their distraction,"Who are these, and whither are they gone?" |
| 40588 | Who are they, and where have they gone?" |
| 40588 | Who are you, and why have you come here? |
| 40588 | Who are you?" |
| 40588 | Who are you?" |
| 40588 | Who but Dámodara, who is a portion of Hari, would do this? |
| 40588 | Who can arrest the lightning? |
| 40588 | Who can discern the mysterious way of Destiny?" |
| 40588 | Who can guard a disloyal woman? |
| 40588 | Who can overpower you and how? |

| 40588 | Yasovarman said to the merchant out of curiosity--"Great merchant, why do you eat so little?" |
| 40588 | You are a distinguished hero, you are a disputant of the Kshatriya caste; why do you remain silent? |
| 40588 | You can attain all the results you desire by my possession of the science; why do you shew this persistence? |
| 40588 | You have already conquered the Himálayas, the home of the Vidyádharas, so what need have you of Meru the home of the gods? |
| 40588 | You know how all living creatures in the world fear death: so why do you slay without cause these poor deer? |
| 40588 | You ought to punish him, why do you offer to give me to him? |
| 40588 | You take good care of your own children; why do you perpetually torment me?" |
| 40588 | You that used to love me so well, what has made you cruel to me? |
| 40588 | Your mother has only recently gone to heaven, and now that I have lost so good a wife, how can I desire another?" |
| 40588 | Your person is inviolable, so what can we do?" |
| 40588 | Your wife is at present in love with another, so how can she shew you affection? |
| 40588 | [ 144] When the prince heard that, he propitiated the female ascetic and said to her;"Who is this Mrigánkalekhá? |
| 40588 | [ 146] What does the cold moon profit a shivering man, or what is the use of a cloud when winter has arrived? |
| 40588 | [ 155] She said,"who art thou, illustrious sir, and for what reason hast thou entered our home on this occasion?" |
| 40588 | [ 179] Cathay? |
| 40588 | [ 209] When Vinítamati''s father said this to him, he answered,--"My father, how can men like me contend with weak women? |
| 40588 | [ 232] So why do you refuse to take food? |
| 40588 | [ 232] Then he, full of curiosity, thought for a moment,"Can this be sleep or delusion? |
| 40588 | [ 253]"When Chakradhara made this proposal to the Bráhmans, Vidúshaka, who was standing near, said to them;"Do this, what is there to be afraid of?" |
| 40588 | [ 273] Böhtlingk and Roth give upasankhya as überzählig(?). |
| 40588 | [ 311] For were not the sages long ago angry with Siva in the devadáru- wood, being afraid that their wives would go astray? |
| 40588 | [ 31] I prefer the reading kas of the Sanskrit College MS., and would render,"Whom can the king make his equal? |
| 40588 | [ 323] But who knows the way of the mighty god Fate, in that you suddenly fixed your mind on pilgrimage to holy waters and other sacred places? |
| 40588 | [ 341] He said to himself,"Can this be Rati come in person to gather the flowers accumulated by spring, in order to make arrows for the god of love? |
| 40588 | [ 347] What but ridicule can ever be the portion of the over- greedy? |
| 40588 | [ 372] She next asked him,"By what road did you go there, and what is it like?" |
| 40588 | [ 391] And what greater merit can there be than the benefiting of all creatures? |
| 40588 | [ 439] And did not Visvámitra leave his asceticism when he beheld Menaká? |
| 40588 | [ 453] And the other is like it; say, what is there attractive in these?" |
| 40588 | [ 498] When the king heard that, he sent for the merchant, and said to him--"Tell me, who fetched you the nágabalá?" |
| 40588 | [ 507] And putting the betel into my mouth, I said to that dear companion of hers,"What can I say more than this, my good girl? |
| 40588 | [ 556] So why do you run after Bandhudattá, who is a friend of witches? |
| 40588 | [ 562] But such is this world, full of marvels, full of frauds; who can fathom it, or the sea, at any time?" |
| 40588 | [ 614] Then the Daitya said to her,"Why, who can slay me who am of adamantine frame? |
| 40588 | [ 635] And when Siva the god of gods is worshipped, what god is not worshipped? |
| 40588 | [ 63] They said to their mother,"Why was he not killed to- day?" |
| 40588 | [ 662] And how could one like me captivate the soul of a man who, when roaming in the air, beheld Kámachúdámani?" |
| 40588 | [ 713] The three India Office MSS., read purasatair,"hundreds of cities?" |
| 40588 | [ 749] When we saw this, we were astonished and we said to one another,"What can this wonder mean? |
| 40588 | [ 753] He said--"What is the use of this profitless body that is dead even while alive? |
| 40588 | [ 825] When this was said to the boy, he was put to shame; so he went and said to his mother,"Mother, who and where is my father? |
| 40588 | [ 82] The good Bráhman lady said,"Who will give me alms in this vessel, for I am a woman?" |
| 40588 | [ 83] He had made money without capital, so his achievements are compared to pictures suspended in the air? |
| 40588 | am I dead? |
| 40588 | am I mortally wounded by my enemies?" |
| 40588 | and asked him courteously;"Are you the elder brother of Rájyadhara, skilled in various very great mechanical contrivances?" |
| 40588 | brothers, what are we to do? |
| 40588 | did he go there, and was my brother not able to devour him? |
| 40588 | did you not keep any for Gunavará? |

| 40588 | do maidens obtain husbands by worshipping Ganesa?" |

| 40588 | do you wish to smite a jasmine flower with a thunder- bolt, in that you desire to employ a weapon against this tender form?" |
| 40588 | has this handsome man no one to anoint his back? |
| 40588 | has this maiden, after rejecting kings who asked for her hand, fallen in love with me? |
| 40588 | has this merchant, though my friend, robbed me of my wife? |
| 40588 | have these miserable wretches left this unfortunate woman alone? |
| 40588 | have we entered the house of a profligate woman? |

| 40588 | how comes it that a wild elephant conducts itself like a man? |
| 40588 | how have you suddenly come to make this mistake?" |
| 40588 | how is this that you have neglected to arrive at my dinner hour, or what worse penalty than death can I inflict on you, scoundrel?" |
| 40588 | how shall I be able to pass a year, long as a thousand years, without the queen Madanasundarí, whom I value more than my life?" |
| 40588 | how shall I live in the body of a sow, and after that in the mire?" |
| 40588 | how shall I obtain the lotus- like heart of a monkey? |
| 40588 | is he the god of love, without his flowery bow? |
| 40588 | is there not a banyan- tree and a tank on the east side of the village? |
| 40588 | is this my brother Asokadatta come here?" |
| 40588 | is this my uncle Vigatabhaya, who long ago went to a foreign country, and do I now by good luck find him established in the position of a minister?" |
| 40588 | my beloved Padmávatí, do you not see that when I was a Vidyádhara, I incurred a curse in Meghavana for your sake? |
| 40588 | my beloved with face like the moon''s orb, fair as the moonlight; did this night grudge your existence, hating your charms that rival hers[ 332]? |
| 40588 | my female swan?''" |
| 40588 | shall he slay the king''s daughter while I am alive? |
| 40588 | she is in love with another man, she must certainly go; why should I make her break her word? |
| 40588 | son, the only scion of our family, where shall I behold you again? |
| 40588 | tell me why you have become thus?" |
| 40588 | the ways are seen to be lighted up by the moonlight, as if whitened with plaster, so why should I not go there and roam about? |
| 40588 | though it has cost me hundreds of hardships to reach this city, I can not even enter it; what chance then have I of obtaining my beloved?" |
| 40588 | what can I give to the king?" |
| 40588 | what can that miserable Yakshiní do to us? |

| 15476 | 61"Dhritarashtra said,''Beholding Duryodhana struck down in battle by Bhimasena, what, O Sanjaya, did the Pandavas and the Srinjayas do?'' |
| 15476 | 63 Janamejaya said,"For what reason did that tiger among kings, Yudhishthira the just, despatch that scorcher of foes, Vasudeva, unto Gandhari? |
| 15476 | 64"Dhritarashtra said,''Kicked at the head, his thighs broken, prostrated on the ground, exceedingly proud, what, O Sanjaya, did my son then say? |

| 15476 | According to what ordinances should he perform the homa in honour of the gods and the Pitris? |
| 15476 | After finishing thy business here, whither wilt thou go? |
| 15476 | After the season of distress is over, what should the Kshatriya do? |
| 15476 | After whom hast thou come hither? |
| 15476 | Aided by thee, O Krishna, I can, in great battle, destroy the three worlds assembled together, what need be said of Karna then? |
| 15476 | Aided by what class of servants or by servants of what kind of birth, is it advisable to discharge the duties of ruling? |
| 15476 | Air, space, fire, moon, sun, day, night, the luminous bodies( in the firmament), rivers, and mountains,--who makes them and who supports them? |
| 15476 | Alas, does not thy body feel pain today by lying thus on the bare ground? |
| 15476 | Alas, how shalt thou proceed along that way without equipping thyself with the necessary expenses? |
| 15476 | Alas, what will the end be to which we shall attain? |
| 15476 | Alas, when shall we adopt a life of Renunciation that is destructive of sorrow? |

| 15476 | Always attentive to the duties of hospitality, she worshipped the guest with due rites, and welcoming him, said,''What can I do for you?'' |
| 15476 | Am I not armed with a formidable mace that looks like a cliff of Himavat? |
| 15476 | Amongst these three, which is the foremost, which the second, and which the last, in point of importance? |
| 15476 | Amongst these two, viz., the duties of domesticity and those of Yoga, both of which lead to the same end, which is superior?" |
| 15476 | Amongst those duties what are those few that should, according to thee, be preferred to all others for observance? |
| 15476 | And for what purpose is that soul which does not subjugate the senses and abstain from evil acts?''" |
| 15476 | And he asked the Kshatriyas present there, saying,"Where is the king, that great car- warrior?" |
| 15476 | And how did those three, Kripa and others, do? |
| 15476 | And how was my son Duryodhana slain by Bhimasena of great might?'' |
| 15476 | And in what their status of humanity?'' |
| 15476 | And they asked one another, saying:--''What deity is this one that has attained to such a high end? |
| 15476 | And what are those acts which he must do for being freed from sin? |
| 15476 | And what conduct also should the king adopt? |

| 15476 | And why also didst thou fall into hell? |
| 15476 | And why did he die? |
| 15476 | And why is the latter called Kshetrajna? |
| 15476 | Approaching Kausika then, that speaker of truth, they asked him saying,''O holy one, by which path have a multitude of men gone a little while before? |
| 15476 | Are forgiveness and compassion and pity and abstention from injury not to be found in anybody walking along the path of Kshatriya duties? |
| 15476 | Are not thy two arms sound? |
| 15476 | Are these two ears of thine gone? |
| 15476 | Are those heroes, slain by the Pancalas, sleeping on the bare Earth? |
| 15476 | Arrived at the presence, those illustrious ones addressed the Lord of the universe, saying,''What sort of a noise is this, O puissant one? |
| 15476 | Art thou alive? |
| 15476 | Art thou not happy? |
| 15476 | Art thou not successful in controlling thy mind? |
| 15476 | Art thou not superior to those men, or at least equal to them in intelligence and exertion?'' |
| 15476 | As he has no foes, what fear can assail him? |

| 15476 | Asked by me, tell me by what means is Brahma to be apprehended? |
| 15476 | At the command of the gods the high- souled Manibhadra addressed the prostrate Kundadhara and said,''What does Kundadhara want?'' |
| 15476 | At whose sign hast thou entered into my heart? |
| 15476 | Be that as it may, what else is there that I can do for thee? |
| 15476 | Before what do I rest? |
| 15476 | Behold, O slayer of Madhu, that other son of Dhritarashtra, Citrasena, slain and lying on the ground, that hero who was the model of all bowmen? |
| 15476 | Beholding him eating, Sankha addressed his brother, saying,''Whence have these fruits been obtained and for what reason art thou eating them?'' |
| 15476 | Beholding him fallen into a great danger why dost thou not stir thyself? |
| 15476 | Beholding his brother slain in battle by Bhimasena, and upon his blood being drunk, what indeed, did Duryodhana say? |
| 15476 | Beholding his host dispirited, what, indeed, did the ungovernable, proud, and foolish Duryodhana, with passions not under control, say? |
| 15476 | Beholding his wrath, Keshava, conversant with the workings of the( human) heart said,"Why, O Partha, dost thou draw thy sword? |
| 15476 | Beholding that child of celestial beauty lying on the lap of his sire, the God asked one another,"From whom shall this child obtain suck?" |
| 15476 | Beholding the army broken by Kunti''s son of immeasurable energy, what did Karna, the son of Adhiratha and Radha, do in that battle? |
| 15476 | Beholding the bird enter that fire, the fowler began to think, and asked himself,''What have I done? |
| 15476 | Beholding thee in such distress, why are they delaying in making their appearance before thee? |
| 15476 | Beholding this last attribute of Hope, I ask, what else is so unconquerable as this?" |
| 15476 | Beholding this miserable plight that has overtaken thee, dost thou or dost thou not indulge in grief? |
| 15476 | Beholding thyself stripped today by thy foes, why dost thou not grieve? |
| 15476 | Beholding, however, that son of Radha now defeated by Bhima in battle, what did my son Duryodhana next do?'' |
| 15476 | Being a friend, why dost thou, like an enemy, frighten me with these praises of the two Krishnas? |
| 15476 | Being alone and destitute of weapons, how can I venture to fight on foot, against numerous foes all well- armed and possessed of cars? |
| 15476 | Being of such low origin, how can they be conversant with the duties ordained in the scriptures? |
| 15476 | Bhima replied, saying,''It is improper to quaff the blood of even a stranger, what then need be said about quaffing the blood of one''s own self? |
| 15476 | Born in a respectable family belonging to the middle country, how is it that thou becomest like a robber in thy practices? |
| 15476 | Bringing us into the midst of foes, why hast thou broken us into pieces by throwing us down on a hard soil? |
| 15476 | But how can acts, if he continues to be engaged in accomplishing acts, bring about what is agreeable( viz., Emancipation)? |
| 15476 | But how many kings are there that rule their kingdoms well? |
| 15476 | But how would the king maintain himself if he were not to trust anybody? |
| 15476 | But how, O monarch, can a king, without trusting others, conquer his foes? |

| 15476 | But what can devotion do when the sacrificer is stained by falsehood? |
| 15476 | But what fault can attach to the sale of oil, or of Ghrita, or honey, or drugs, O regenerate one? |
| 15476 | But what is meant by the identity of the Understanding with all the objects it comprehends? |
| 15476 | But why phalani instead of phalam? |
| 15476 | But why, O king, shouldst thou be guilty of heedlessness?'' |
| 15476 | By giving way to thy wrath, what wilt thou do to me? |
| 15476 | By killing those hopes of theirs, to what regions shalt thou go, O king, especially when salvation is doubtful and creatures are dependent on actions? |
| 15476 | By what Act or by what Knowledge can that fruit be achieved? |
| 15476 | By what is it besieged? |
| 15476 | By what means does a kingdom grow, and what are those means by which the king himself grows? |

| 15476 | By what, a Kshatriya? |
| 15476 | Can he, however, at any time, support himself by the practice of the duties laid down for the Vaisyas?" |
| 15476 | Canst thou utter them now once more in joy, repeatedly struck as thou art by me? |
| 15476 | Chirakarin asks,''How shall I know that Gautama is my father? |
| 15476 | Conversant with the ways of morality, why dost thou, O king, witness this act with indifference?" |

| 15476 | Depending upon which of these does the course of life proceed? |
| 15476 | Deprived as I am of my children, what need have I of kingdom?'' |
| 15476 | Deprived by us of his kingdom( on a former occasion), why will the son of Pandu repose his trust on us? |
| 15476 | Deprived of thee, O king, where can we have peace and where can we have happiness? |
| 15476 | Deprived of thee, O mighty- armed one, what will be my plight? |
| 15476 | Dhrishtadyumna, seeing me, laughingly addressed Satyaki, saying,''What is the use of seizing this one? |
| 15476 | Did my troops cast their eyes on Radha''s son like persons afflicted with cold turning their gaze towards the Sun? |
| 15476 | Did not that hero meet with his death like the other Kshatriyas that have fallen? |
| 15476 | Did the son of Radha act towards the( hostile) troops according to his vow? |
| 15476 | Did they achieve any feat? |

| 15476 | Does the first line mean, therefore, that the stalk speedily springs upwards and leaves the mire at its roots? |
| 15476 | Does thy knowledge, O sinless one, shine in thee by inward light? |
| 15476 | Dost thou disregard me now, having thyself succeeded in thy object? |
| 15476 | Dost thou do these from ignorance or from perverted intelligence? |

| 15476 | Is he really a human being or is he some deity that has come hither in the disguise of a Brahmana? |
| 15476 | Is it Emancipation that thou wouldst pursue( in the usual way), i.e., by retiring into solitude and betaking thyself to Sannyasa? |
| 15476 | Is it by penance, by Brahmacharya, by renunciation of everything, by intelligence, by the aid of the Sankhya philosophy, or by Yoga? |
| 15476 | Is it by penances, or by the understanding, or by religious acts( like sacrifices, and vows), or by study and knowledge of the scriptures?'' |
| 15476 | Is it due to any act of mine or is it due to any act that Vali has done?'' |
| 15476 | Is it due to thy heroism or thy having waited with reverence upon aged persons? |
| 15476 | Is it due to thy mind having been cleansed by penances? |

| 15476 | Is it, O child, the case that Pavana is pleased with thee and is thy friend so that he protects thee always in these woods? |
| 15476 | Is man, however, to be regarded as their doer or is he not to be regarded so? |
| 15476 | Is not this a perversity of understanding on thy part, since thou art by nature an eater of carrion? |
| 15476 | Is such a man to be regarded as following the ordinances of Sankhya or yoga or work? |
| 15476 | Is that person, O Sanjaya, worthy of honour who behaveth thus towards a man possessed of glory endued with prosperity, living in the midst of friends? |
| 15476 | Is the illustrious Grandsire of all the worlds any way different from or inferior to the great Narayana? |
| 15476 | Is there no distinction then among duties or observances in respect of their beneficial character? |
| 15476 | Is there or is there not consciousness in the emancipate state? |
| 15476 | Is this due, O son of Diti, to the acquisition of wisdom or is it on account of thy fortitude? |

| 15476 | Joining his palms from reverence and with eyes bathed in tears, he addressed Kusika''s son, saying,''What do you seek here in the night, O Brahmana?'' |

| 15476 | Seeing Vikartana''s son slain in single combat by Savyasaci, and the Pandavas crowned with victory, what indeed, did Duryodhana say? |
| 15476 | Seeing me with thee, why will not thy dear spouse and thy loving children cheerfully eat me up? |
| 15476 | Seeing this, Krishna asked him,"What is this? |
| 15476 | Shakra, coming down from heaven, asked him the reason, saying,"Why O king, art thou employed( in this task) with such perseverance? |
| 15476 | Shall these live after birth? |
| 15476 | Shall they be able to give us happiness in this and the other world?'' |
| 15476 | Shall they grow in might and be objects of regard on earth? |
| 15476 | Should he seek the acquisition of wealth by evil means, or should he lay down his life without seeking wealth?" |
| 15476 | Should he select one already made or should he cause one to be especially constructed? |
| 15476 | Should one sacrifice with the goat or with herbs and plants? |
| 15476 | Similarly, O Bharata, of what use is the forest to him that has no self- control? |
| 15476 | Similarly, what need is there for a king that is not competent to grant protection? |
| 15476 | Similarly, who will wonder if I were described as one possessed of the full measure of fame? |
| 15476 | Smiling, he then asked the gods,''Who will become my driver?'' |
| 15476 | Sought to be made a prey by three foes, how should I now act for saving my life? |
| 15476 | Tell me also truly, O illustrious one, what is that which the very Vedas have not been able to reveal? |
| 15476 | Tell me in what thou has still any doubt? |
| 15476 | Tell me what after this is in thy mind? |
| 15476 | Tell me what, indeed, is Adhyatma and whence does it come? |
| 15476 | Tell me, O Madhava, to which of these duties should I first turn? |
| 15476 | Tell me, O first of speakers, whence was his attachment to life and whence his happiness? |
| 15476 | Tell us, therefore, who is to be the generalissimo of my forces now, placing whom at our head, all of us, united together, may vanquish the Pandavas?" |
| 15476 | That Being, thus created, stood before the great god, with joined hands, and said,"What commands shall I have to accomplish?" |
| 15476 | The Daitya chief addressed it, saying,"Who art thou?" |
| 15476 | The King said,--''By what conduct, O holy one may one transcend decrepitude and death? |
| 15476 | The body being non- existent, what then is the real refuge of the knowledge? |
| 15476 | The king replied unto him, saying,''Why should I not bear anything thou wilt say, since I am not blind to what is for my good? |
| 15476 | The question is then mentally stated,--May not the Gunas be the qualities of the knowledge( instead of being, as said above, its refuge)? |
| 15476 | The sage began to reflect, saying to himself,''What is best for me to do now?'' |
| 15476 | The sense seems to be this: Is it a life of domesticity that thou wouldst lead? |
| 15476 | The son of Rohini then, in sorrowful words, enquired of the Rishi, saying,''What is the state of the field? |
| 15476 | The unfading Brahma, soothing him by soft words, said unto him,"O Sharva, what wert thou doing so long within the water? |
| 15476 | The very women did not quarrel with one another, what need then be said of the men? |
| 15476 | The younger brother of Indra then, with great excitement, addressed him, saying,"Why, O son of Pandu, dost thou become so forgetful? |
| 15476 | Then Bhoja and Sharadvata''s son, those high- souled persons, addressed him, saying,"Why dost thou yoke the steeds to thy car? |
| 15476 | Then Vasudeva, addressing Partha, said,"Why, O sinless one, dost thou sport in this way? |
| 15476 | Then all the celestials, coming to Soma, O king, asked him, saying,''Why is it that thy form is not so beautiful and resplendent( as before)? |
| 15476 | Then the chief of the Dasharhas addressed Arjuna and said,"Why errest thou in thus sparing Ashvatthama? |
| 15476 | Then, again, when I have no real connection with even my body, how then can I be said to have any contact with the bodies of others? |
| 15476 | These men must be regarded as Mahajanas and Sadhus, but how can their conduct be regarded as righteous? |
| 15476 | This direction or command is certainly terrible, for who can make up his mind to part with all his wealth for completing a sacrifice? |
| 15476 | Those questions are as follows: What is universe and what is not- universe? |
| 15476 | Thou art incapable of being known by the gods, how then canst thou be known by me? |
| 15476 | Thou wouldst not speak of this( thy present motion) because of its having been a mystery to us? |
| 15476 | Though possessed of great energy, why does he not succeed in travelling to the centre of the firmament? |
| 15476 | Through whom again do they act? |
| 15476 | Thus addressed in that battle by him, the Suta''s son said,"Who are you possessed of such fierce form?" |
| 15476 | Thyself an object of grief, why dost thou grieve( for others)? |
| 15476 | To what reason is thy entrance to be ascribed into my kingdom or my palace? |
| 15476 | To what regions shall I go( thereafter), having perpetrated such infamous deeds? |
| 15476 | Unable to bear the grief resulting from such affliction, and worthy as she is of happiness, alas, what will be her plight? |
| 15476 | Under these circumstances, ye kings, what is necessary and what is still more necessary?''" |
| 15476 | Unto them that said so, the son of Tashtri replied,--''Where will you go? |
| 15476 | Upon the recommencement of the battle after the withdrawal of the troops, how, O Sanjaya, did Vikarna''s son Karna fight? |
| 15476 | Upon what business art thou bent? |
| 15476 | Upon what else shall I speak to thee? |
| 15476 | Upon what indeed, shall I once more speak to thee?''"''" |
| 15476 | Upon what woman did Vyasa, endued with wealth of asceticism, beget that son of his? |
| 15476 | Upon what, O Srinjaya, dost thou reflect in silence? |
| 15476 | Upon whom should the king repose confidence and upon whom should he not?" |
| 15476 | Vasishtha''s work commences with the query-- What is dharmah? |
| 15476 | Viradyumna once more questioned that foremost of ascetics in these words:"''"''The king said,"What is the measure of the thinness of Hope? |
| 15476 | Was it not improper for thee to publish that private act before all thy court? |

| 15476 | Was that foremost of all wielders of weapons our eldest brother? |
| 15476 | We, each, should be endued with what kind of consciousness and shall take charge of which of these? |
| 15476 | Wending thither, the Creator and Destroyer of the universe again addressed her saying,"Upon what art thou engaged, O daughter? |
| 15476 | Were they ignorant of the means by which to win cessation of existence? |
| 15476 | Were they ignorant of the method by which Emancipation is attainable? |
