Verse 2·VR 4.31.2

न वानरः स्थास्यति साधु वृत्ते न मन्यते कर्म फल अनुषंगान् | न भोक्ष्यते वानर राज्य लक्ष्मीम् तथा हि न अभिक्रमते अस्य बुद्धिः || ४-३१-२

na vaanaraH sthaasyati saadhu vR^itte na manyate karma phala anuSha.ngaan | na bhokShyate vaanara raajya lakShmiim tathaa hi na abhikramate asya buddhiH || 4-31-2

Translation

"As a forester Sugreeva will not abide by the conduct of gentlefolk, he is not appreciative of the fruits of incidental events like gaining kingdom and regaining wife occurring out of your deed of eliminating Vali, thus he will not enjoy the prosperity of the kingdom anymore. Obviously his prudence is behindhand, isn't it! [4-31-2]
