श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
एवं विचारयंस्तत्र स्वराज्ये जनको नृपः ।
चकाराखिलकार्याणि न मुमोह च धीरधीः ॥ १ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
evaṃ vicārayaṃstatra svarājye janako nṛpaḥ |
cakārākhilakāryāṇi na mumoha ca dhīradhīḥ || 1 ||

Vasishtha continued:—Janaka having expostulated in his manner with his mind, attended to the affairs of the state without shrinking from them by his mental abstraction.
