न चाहृष्यन् नचामोदन् वणिजो न प्रसारयन् | न चाशोभन्त पण्यानि नापचन् गृहमेधिनः || २-४८-४

sanskrit

The people had no joy in life nor did they find cheer in anything. The merchants did not offer their wares for sale. The marketplace looked graceless (lifeless). (The stocks were empty). The householders did not cook their food. [2-48-4]
