एतस्मिन्नंतरे पौराः सर्वे शोकपरायणाः । जगर्हुः परुषैर्वाक्यैर्दुष्टां तां विषकन्यकाम्
etasminnaṃtare paurāḥ sarve śokaparāyaṇāḥ | jagarhuḥ paruṣairvākyairduṣṭāṃ tāṃ viṣakanyakām
அந்நேரத்தில் துயரில் மூழ்கிய நகரமக்கள் அனைவரும், அந்தத் தீய விஷகன்னியை கடுஞ்சொற்களால் கண்டித்தனர்।
Sūta (contextual continuation)
Scene: In the city square, grieving townspeople gather, pointing and rebuking a feared ‘poison-maiden’; faces show sorrow, anger, and panic; the atmosphere is charged with moral accusation.
In grief people seek a cause and may condemn others; Purāṇic ethics encourages moving from blame toward dharmic remedy and purification.
