Shloka 14
Nakula’s Adaptive Counsel to Kṛṣṇa in the Kuru Assembly (उद्योगपर्व, अध्याय ७८)
असकृच्चाप्यहं तेन त्वत्कृते पार्थ भेदित: । न मया तद् गृहीतं च पापं तस्य चिकीर्षितम्,कुन्तीनन्दन! उसने मुझे भी तुम्हारी ओरसे फोड़नेके लिये अनेक बार चेष्टा की है; परंतु मैंने उसके पापपूर्ण प्रस्तावको कभी स्वीकार नहीं किया है
asakṛc cāpy ahaṃ tena tvatkṛte pārtha bheditaḥ | na mayā tad gṛhītaṃ ca pāpaṃ tasya cikīrṣitam ||
«Oh hijo de Kuntī, una y otra vez intentó, por tu causa, apartarme de vosotros. Pero jamás acepté la propuesta pecaminosa que él tramaba.»
