' ददर्श कामिनं कचिच्छूद्रं सह भुजिष्यया ।

क्रीडन्तमनुगायन्तं हसन्तमनयाऽन्तिके ॥

"This person (Ajamila) was a Brahmin,

endowed with learning and the abode of

character, conduct and other virtues;

once, having gone to the forest to do the

bidding of his father, he saw a lewd low-

caste fellow in the company of a harlot,

dallying, singing and laughing with her

who was by his side.

'दृष्ट्वा तां कामलिप्तेन बाहुना परिरम्भिताम् ।

जगाम हृच्छयवशं सहसैव विमोहितः ॥
 

"Seeing her embraced by that lustful

person with his arm, this Ajamila became

infatuated at once and a prey to passion.
 

 
'तामेव मनसा ध्यायन् स्वधर्माद्विरराम है।

तामेव तोषयामास पित्र्येणार्थेन यावता ॥
 

" Thinking of her alone, he stopped

performing his Dharma; and with all his

available patrimony, he satisfied her alone.

विप्रां स्वभार्यामप्रौढां कुले महति लम्भिताम् ।

विससर्जाचिरात्पापः स्वैरिण्यापाङ्गविद्धधीः ॥
