Yesūmarthe ksnksitam no rājyam bhogāh sukh&ni ca
Ta ime{a)vasthitā yuddhe prānāms-tyaktvā dhanani ca
Acāryāh-pitarah putrās-tadiaiva ca pitāmahāh
Mātulāh śvaśurāh pautrāh śyālāh sambandhinastatliā

33. These very persons, for whose sake kingdom, enjoyments and comforts are desired by us, stand here arrayed in battle, renouncing (their) lives and RICHES—

34. teachers, fathers, sons; and in like manner, grand-fathers, maternal uncles, fathers-in-law, grand­ sons, brothers-in-law, and also other relations by marriage.

Etān-na hantum-icchāmi glmato(a)pi Madhūsūdana
Apt trailokya-rājyasya hetoh kim nil mahīkrte

35. Madhusūdana![1] Though they should slay me, Ī do not wish to kill these (persons) even for the sovereignty of the three worlds: how much the less for the sake of an earthly kingdom !
