Rāmopākhyāna—Rāma–Sītā Origins and the Opening of Rāvaṇa’s Genealogy

कीलालजं न खादेयं करिष्ये चासुरव्रतम्‌ । नास्तीति नैव वक्ष्यामि याचितो येन केनचित्‌,उस समय कर्णने दुर्योधनसे कहा--“नृपश्रेष्ठ! मेरी यह प्रतिज्ञा सुन लो--“जबतक अर्जुन मेरे हाथसे मारा नहीं जाता, तबतक मैं दूसरोंसे पैर नहीं धुलवाऊँगा, केवल जलसे उत्पन्न पदार्थ नहीं खाऊँगा और आसुरव्रत (क्रूरता आदि) नहीं धारण करूँगा। किसीके भी कुछ माँगनेपर “नहीं है", ऐसी बात नहीं कहूँगा”

kīlālajaṃ na khādeyaṃ kariṣye cāsuravratam | nāstīti naiva vakṣyāmi yācito yena kenacit ||

“I shall not eat anything born of fermented liquor; nor shall I undertake the ‘āsura-vrata’—a vow marked by cruelty and unrighteous conduct. And when anyone asks me for something, I will not utter the words, ‘I have nothing.’”
