न ज्ञाता केनचिदपि जारिणीति विचक्षणा । जुगूहात्मदुराचारं कंचित्कालमसत्तमा
na jñātā kenacidapi jāriṇīti vicakṣaṇā | jugūhātmadurācāraṃ kaṃcitkālamasattamā
वह चतुर स्त्री किसी के द्वारा भी ‘जारिणी’ के रूप में न जानी गई; उस अधर्मिणी ने कुछ काल तक अपना दुराचार छिपाए रखा।
Narrator (context not specified in snippet; likely Purāṇic narrator such as Sūta)
Scene: A woman with composed exterior hides anxiety—half-shadowed face, a closed door behind her, a covered mirror; symbolic smoke curling upward to suggest concealed wrongdoing.
Sin may be hidden socially, but it remains adharma and ripens in time; moral accountability is not erased by secrecy.
No sacred site is mentioned.
None; the verse describes concealment of wrongdoing.
