His son in the thirst for milk drinks Pistaudaka; in ignorance he dances, crying “I have drunk milk.” Hearing these derisive words, I was quite beside myself! Then reproaching myself by myself, I began to reflect thus in my mind, "Cast off and censured by Brahmanas, I would not yet, from the desire of wealth, be any body's servant, which is ever sinful."
पिष्टोदकं सुतो यस्य पीत्वा क्षीरस्य तृष्णया। नृत्यति स्म मुदाविष्टः क्षीरं पीतं मयाप्युत॥ इति सम्भाषतां वाचं श्रुत्वा मे बुद्धिरच्यवत्। आत्मानं चात्मना गर्हन् मनसेदं व्यचिन्तयम्॥ अपि चाहं पुरा विप्रैर्वर्जितो गर्हितो वसे। परोपसेवां पापिष्ठां न च कुर्यां धनेप्सया॥
