कुलाचारे रतः साधुर्द्विजसेवासु तत्परः ॥वाणिज्यं कुरुते साधुः पुरोहितधनेन च ॥ ३ ॥
He kept the family ways, was good, and was devoted to serving brahmins. The good man traded with the wealth of the family priest.
Classical view, not medical advice.
बहुवर्षे गते देवि ब्राह्मणोऽपि तदागतः ॥
Many years passed, O Goddess. Then the brahmin came too. He and his wife showed the brahmin great respect, dear one.
विषं दत्तं चतुर्थेऽह्नि भोजनान्तर्विधानतः ॥
On the fourth day, poison was given during the meal. The good man did not then know what had happened to the brahmin.
मरणं वै ततो जातं ब्राह्मणस्य सुरेश्वरि ॥
Death came to the brahmin, O queen of the gods. When the brahmin was killed, cries of woe rose in every house.
