Devanagari script
व्यास उवाच अर्चितो5हं त्वया राजन् वाम्भिरद्य यदृच्छया । अद्य ते कीटतां प्राप्य स्मृतिर्जाता जुगुप्सिता
Translation
Vyāsa disse: “Ó rei, hoje, por acaso, tu me honraste e me louvastes devidamente com tuas palavras. Contudo, agora, ao alcançares a condição de inseto, despertou em ti a lembrança repugnante dessa existência — a inclinação a comer carne — que ainda permanece.”
