(Transl. G.U.Pope) [army= the most formidable air, sea and land forces; wealth= minus the eighteen (?) trillion debt and not counting his own well-earned piddling billions; a minister=read as Prime Minister (V.P. or Sec. of State?); people=less by three million-odd democratic votes; friends=dwindling, save for staunch Israel by marriage; fort=impenetrable nuclear shield. ] K448: idippaarai illaatha eemaraa mannan keduppaar ilaanum kedum The king, who is without the guard of men who can rebuke him, will perish, even though there be no one to destroy him. (Transl. Drew & Lazarus) K444: thammit periyaar thamaraa olukuthal vanmaiyul ellaam thalai So to act as to make those men, his own, who are greater than himself, is of all power the highest. (Transl. Drew & Lazarus) K447: idikkum thunaiyarai aalvaarai yaaree kedukkum thakaimai yavar Which king who (encourages and) heeds the criticisms* of his henchmen fears conspirators? (Transl. T. Wignesan) [*not-heeding the advice of Ivanka and son-in-law on climate change commitment in Paris, even if the polls show a majority in favour of polluting the planet.] K448: iduppaarai illaatha eemaraa mannan keduppaar ilaanum kedum The king who insulates himself from his helpers'* critiques will perish even if his enemies left him alone. (Transl. T. Wignesan) [*the role of the media in keeping the WH incumbents in check, for without the journalists working over-time to whet and wet-blanket the language and blunders, the King would have perished by now.] K450: pallaar pakaikollin paththaduttha thiimaiththee nallaar thodarkai vidal Having to put up with the enmity of legions* is ten times less harmful than forsaking the support of good (impartial) people*. [*legions= Hillary Clinton and the NDP; *good (impartial) people= like FBI Dir. Comey for one, even if he has an eye (twenty-twenty vision) on the presidency in 2020] © T. Wignesan - Paris, 2017
