A crow, at that time, longing to feed on my flesh, tore my breast with its beak. And I threatened it with a pebble. But it continued tearing my breast as if it sat there to feed on my flesh and therefore did not fly off.
ततो मांससमायुक्तो वायसः पर्यतुण्डयत्। तमहं लोष्टमुद्यम्य वारयामि स्म वायसम्॥ दारयन् स च मां काकस्तत्रैव परिलीयते। न चाप्युपारमन्मांसाद् भक्षार्थी बलिभोजनः॥
