Transliteration

tataḥ puruṣaśārdūlī pānīyaharaṇe gatau | tau dadarśa hatāu tatra bhrātarau śvetavāhanaḥ ||

Translation

Então Śvetavāhana (Arjuna), tendo ido buscar água, viu ali aqueles dois irmãos, leões entre os homens, jazendo mortos. A cena ressalta o perigo da negligência e a gravidade moral de se aproximar do desconhecido sem discernimento, pois as consequências do erro recaem primeiro sobre os próprios parentes.
