The king reads disaster in the silence: 'paridevo mahān… na abhinandanam,' 'great lamentation, not rejoicing.' Where once sounded 'śrutisukhāvahāḥ śabdāḥ,' sounds delighting the ear, now there is muteness. It is telling that the absence of accustomed joy becomes news louder than any report. The verse teaches that a change of fortune is most surely betrayed by silenced festivity: where triumph has given way to weeping, disaster has already occurred; and an attentive heart recognizes misfortune by the silence where joy once was.
