King's scepter is base for scriptures
and ethics of quality people

Vizhiyappan's Commentary: The morality established by king's scepter; is the base for the scriptures learned by the people who are best in quality, and also their ethics.

(Likewise…)

The mercy seeded by the relationships of family; is the diligence for the discipline followed by those who won in public-life, and also their affection.
