"Hastening to approach, agitated by affection, the minister raised up the king, bewildered by passion — as a father raises a fallen son — that minister, foremost in wisdom, in years, in fame, and in self-restraint. Having raised him up, he became free from anxiety, and said to him, once risen, in a kind, sweet voice: 'Fear not, O tiger among men; and may good fortune be yours, O blameless one.'"

Here the counselor shows himself to the king as caring as a father. Telling is the comparison: he raises the lord "as a father raises a fallen son" — the wise elder serves his lord with fatherly tenderness, not mere flattery. Here appears the image of the good advisor to power: a union of reverence and love, of wisdom and care. Telling too is the listing of the minister's virtues — wisdom, years, fame, self-restraint: a king's counselor must be mature and self-controlled. Thus the text shows how vital a wise and loving support is beside a ruler; and Samvarana's minister is a model of such devoted service.
