A night of anxious deliberation and prayer gives way to dawn, and the new day itself opens with praise. It is telling that while the Lord in the dark was arranging the victory of his friend, the world moves on in its own order: "atyagāt rajanī… rājā anvabudhyata", the night passed, the king awoke. Praise at waking is the ancient custom of a pious life. The verse teaches that even in days of the greatest trial the sacred order of the day is not broken: dawn follows a sleepless night, and it befits the righteous to meet it not in agitation but in the dignity of established custom.
