A morning of hope: yad bata annasya labhemahi labhemahi dhana-mātrām — "ah, if we might get food, we might get a measure of means too": the sigh of a man for whom hunger has put the very possibility of action in doubt. And a plan: rājāsau yakṣyate — "that king is going to sacrifice": sa mā sarvair ārtvijyair vṛṇīta — "would that he chose me for all the priestly offices": Uṣasti knows his own worth: the starving refugee dreams not of an assistant's place but of all the offices at once: his destitution has not killed the master in him.
Mark the order of his needs: food — strength — service — means: he seeks wealth not for wealth's sake but as the continuation of the service he was called to. A knower's dream in misfortune is not "to eat my fill" but "to be chosen for the work": the body's hunger has not displaced the hierarchy of his soul. His wife already knows how to help that dream — with yesterday's beans.
