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 ।।
