पुरा हि निर्भर्त्सन दण्डमॊहिता; परमूढ चित्ता वदनेन शुष्यता ददाति कस्मै चिद अनर्हते तनुं; वराज्य पूर्णाम इव भस्मनि शरुचम ।। ३-२५३-१८ ।।

sanskrit

'Hasten in pursuit, lest she, overpowered by threats or violence, Loses her composure and the color of her cheeks, And surrenders to an undeserving wretch, Just as one pours a sanctified offering from the sacrificial ladle onto a heap of ashes.' ।। 3-253-18 ।।

पुरा तुषाग्नाव इव हूयते हविः; पुरा शमशाने सरग इवापविध्यते पुरा च सॊमॊ ऽधवरगॊ ऽवलिह्यते; शुना यथा विप्रजने परमॊहिते महत्य अरण्ये मृगयां चरित्वा; पुरा शृगालॊ नलिनीं विगाहते ।। ३-२५३-१९ ।।

sanskrit

'O, see that the clarified butter is not poured into a fire that refuses to ignite, That a garland of flowers is not carelessly discarded in the cemetery. O, take care that the Soma juice of the sacrifice is not licked up by a dog, Through the negligence of the officiating priests! And let not the lotus be violently torn by a jackal, Roaming for its prey in the impenetrable forest.' ।। 3-253-19 ।।

sanskrit

'O, let no inferior wretch touch with his lips the bright and beautiful face of your wife, Fair as the moon's beams, adorned with a perfect nose and the most handsome eyes, Like a dog licking the clarified butter in the sacrificial pot! Hasten along this path, and let not time gain the advantage over you!' ।। 3-253-20 ।।
