यायजूके कुले जन्म क्वक्व मे व्यसनं तथा । अहो बलीयान्स विधिर्भाविकर्मानुसंधयेत्
yāyajūke kule janma kvakva me vyasanaṃ tathā | aho balīyānsa vidhirbhāvikarmānusaṃdhayet
Nacer en una familia sacerdotal de oficiantes del yajña, y aun así, ¿cómo y dónde me ha sobrevenido tal desventura? ¡Ay!, el destino es más poderoso: sigue el hilo de las obras que han de dar fruto.
