if then thy voice had sounded loud, and roused the palace inmates from their sleep,
623. ’If then they had awoke and slumbered not, there would not have ensued the present sorrow.’

41. ‘If he had neighed and so woke up the people, or had even made a noise with his hoofs on the ground, or had made the loudest sound he could with his jaws, my grief would not have been so great.’

Kandaka, hearing these sorrowful words, drawing in his breath and composing himself,
624. Wiping away his tears, with hands clasped together, answered: ’Listen to me, I pray, in self-justification--

42. Having thus heard the queen’s words, their syllables choked with tears and full of lament, slowly Chandaka uttered this answer, with his face bent down, his voice low with tears, and his hands clasped in supplication:

vigarhituṃ nārhasi devi kanthakaṃ na cāpi roṣaṃ mayi kartum arhasi |

be not suspicious of, nor blame the royal horse, nor be thou angry with me either.
625. ’For in truth, no fault has been committed (by us). It is the gods who have effected this.

43. ‘Surely, O queen, thou wilt not blame Kanthaka nor wilt thou show thy anger against me, know that we two are entirely guiltless,--that god amongst men, O queen, is gone away like a god.

For I, indeed, extremely reverenced the king’s command, it was the gods who drove him to the solitudes,
626. ’Urgently leading on the horse with him: thus they went together fleet as with wings, his breathing hushed! suppressed was every sound, his feet scarce touched the earth!

44. ‘I indeed, though I well knew the king’s command, as though dragged by force by some divine powers, brought quickly to him this swift steed, and followed him on the road unwearied.

45. ‘And this best of horses as he went along touched not the ground with the tips of his hoofs as if they were kept aloft from it; and so too, having his mouth restrained as by fate, he made no sound with his jaws and neighed not.

627. ’The city gates wide opening of themselves! all space self-lighted! this was the work indeed of the gods; and what was I, or what my strength, compared with theirs?’

46. ‘When the prince went out, then the gate was thrown open of its own accord; and the darkness of the night was, as it were, pierced by the sun,--we may learn from hence too that this was the ordering of fate.

47. ‘When also by the king’s command, in palace and city, diligent guards had been placed by thousands, and at that time they were all overcome by sleep and woke not,--we may learn from hence too that this was the ordering of fate.

48. ‘When also the garment, approved for a hermit’s dwelling in the forest, was offered to him at the moment by some denizen of heaven, and the tiara which he threw into the sky was carried off,--we may learn from hence too that this was the ordering of fate.

49. ‘Do not therefore assume that his departure arises from the fault of either of us, O queen; neither I nor this horse acted by our own choice; he went on his way with the gods as his retinue.’

628. Yasodharâ hearing these words, her heart was lost in deep consideration! the deeds accomplished by the gods could not be laid to others’ charge, as faults;

50. Having thus heard the history of the prince’s departure, so marvellous in many ways, those women, as though losing their grief, were filled with wonder, but they again took up their distress at the thought of his becoming an ascetic.

51. With her eyes filled with the tears of despondency, wretched like an osprey who has lost her young,--Gautamî abandoning all self-control wailed aloud,--she fainted, and with a weeping face exclaimed:

52. ‘Beautiful, soft, black, and all in great waves, growing each from its own special root,--those hairs of his are tossed on the ground, worthy to be encircled by a royal diadem.

53. ‘With his long arms and lion-gait, his bull-like eye, and his beauty bright like gold, his broad chest, and his voice deep as a drum or a cloud, should such a hero as this dwell in a hermitage?

abhāginī nūnam iyaṃ vasuṃdharā tam āryakarmāṇam anuttamaṃ patim¹¹ |

54. ‘This earth is indeed unworthy as regards that peerless doer of noble actions, for such a virtuous hero has gone away from her,--it is the merits and virtues of the subjects which produce their king.

55. ‘Those two feet of his, tender, with their beautiful web spread between the toes, with their ankles concealed, and soft like a blue lotus,--how can they, bearing a wheel marked in the middle, walk on the hard ground of the skirts of the forest?

vimānapṛṣṭhe śayanāsanocitaṃ mahārhavastrāgurucandanārcitam |
kathaṃ nu śītoṣṇajalāgameṣu tac charīram ojasvi vane bhaviṣyati || 8.56 ||

56. ‘That body, which deserves to sit or lie on the roof of a palace,--honoured with costly garments, aloes, and sandal-wood,--how will that manly body live in the woods, exposed to the attacks of the cold, the heat, and the rain?

kulena sattvena balena varcasā śrutena lakṣmyā vayasā ca garvitaḥ |

57. ‘He who was proud of his family, goodness, strength, energy, sacred learning, beauty, and youth,--who was ever ready to give, not to ask,--how will he go about begging alms from others?

śucau śayitvā śayane hiraṇmaye prabodhyamāno niśi tūryanisvanaiḥ |

58. ‘He who, lying on a spotless golden bed, was awakened during the night by the concert of musical instruments,--how alas! will he, my ascetic, sleep to-day on the bare ground with only one rag of cloth interposed?’

imaṃ pralāpaṃ¹⁵ karuṇaṃ niśamya tā bhujaiḥ pariṣvajya parasparaṃ striyaḥ |

59. Having heard this piteous lamentation, the women, embracing one another with their arms, rained the tears from their eyes, as the shaken creepers drop honey from their flowers.

629. And so she ceased her angry chiding, and allowed her great, consuming grief to smoulder. Thus prostrate on the ground she muttered out her sad complaints, ’That the two ringed-birds (doves) should be divided!

60. Then Yasodharâ fell upon the ground, like the ruddy goose parted from her mate, and in utter bewilderment she slowly lamented, with her voice repeatedly stopped by sobs:
