यदा दरॊणः कृतवर्मा कृपश च; कर्णॊ दरौणिर मद्रराजश च शूरः अमर्षयन सैन्धवं वध्यमानं; तदा नाशंसे विजयाय संजय ॥ १-७१-३६ ॥
'Do not grieve, O deity, for such is the way of the world; no mortal should mourn for what is beyond control. All the gods, the entire universe, and everything else, indeed acknowledge the inevitability of change and transformation.' ॥ 1-71-36 ॥

[देव] यस्याङ्गिरा वृद्धतमः पितामहॊ; बृहस्पतिश चापि पिता तपॊधनः ऋषेः पुत्रं तम अथॊ वापि पौत्रं; कथं न शॊचेयम अहं न रुद्याम ॥ १-७१-३७ ॥

english translation
स बरह्म चारी च तपॊधनश च; सदॊत्थितः कर्मसु चैव दक्षः कचस्य मार्गं परतिपत्स्ये न भॊक्ष्ये; परियॊ हि मे तात कचॊ ऽभिरूपः ॥ १-७१-३८ ॥

[षुक्र] असंशयं माम असुरा दविषन्ति; ये मे शिष्यं नागसं सूदयन्ति अब्राह्मणं कर्तुम इच्छन्ति रौद्रास; ते मां यथा परस्तुतं दानवैर हि अप्य अस्य पापस्य भवेद इहान्तः; कं बरह्महत्या न दहेद अपीन्द्रम ॥ १-७१-३९ ॥
'Vaisampayana continued, "Then, the great sage Kavya, deeply troubled by Devayani's words, exclaimed in anger, 'Indeed, the Asuras intend to harm me, as they kill my disciple who resides with me. These devotees of Rudra aim to strip me of my Brahminhood by implicating me in their heinous act. Surely, such a crime leads to a dreadful conclusion. The sin of killing a Brahmin could even scorch Indra himself."' ॥ 1-71-39 ॥
