Sangaya said: Having spoken thus to Hrishikesa, O terror of (your) foes! Gudakesa said to Govinda, `I shall not engage in battle;' and verily remain silent. To him thus desponding between two armies, O descedant of Bharata! Hrishikesa spoke these words with a slight smile. The Deity said: You have grieved for those who deserve no grief, and you speak words of wisdom. Learned men grieve not for the living nor the dead.
