Text 2.67.21

नाराजके जनपदे शरान्सन्ततमस्यताम्।
श्रूयते तलनिर्घोष इष्वस्त्राणामुपासने॥

nārājake janapade śarān santatam asyatām
śrūyate tala-nirghoṣa iṣvastrāṇām upāsane

na = is not; arājake = without a genuine king; janapade = in a land; śarān = arrows; santatam = constantly; asyatām = shooting; śrūyate = heard; tala-nirghoṣaḥ = the twang; iṣu-astrāṇām = of archers; upāsane = during their practices 2.

In a land without a genuine king, the twang of archers constantly shooting arrows during their practices is not heard.
