The Chandala said I dare not present this piece of meat to you, nor can I quietly allow you to rob me of my own food. If I give you this meat and if you take it, yourself being a Brahmana, both of us will go down to regions of misery in the next world.
श्वपच उवाच नैवात्सहे भवतो दातुमेतां नोपेक्षितुं ह्रियमाणं स्वमन्नम्। उभौ स्यावः पापलोकावलिप्तौ दाता चाहं ब्राह्मणस्त्वं प्रतीच्छन्॥
