Chapter 100 · A Vegetable Seller's Trust
पूर्वाभाद्रपदा नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
बहुवर्षे गते देवि ब्राह्मणोऽपि तदागतः ॥आदरं बहुधा कृत्वा कलत्रेण तदा शिवे ॥ ४ ॥
Many years passed, O Goddess. Then the brahmin came too. He and his wife showed the brahmin great respect, dear one.
Classical view, not medical advice.
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.
श्रुत्वा तच्च पुरीं त्यक्त्वा प्रयागे साधुरागतः ॥
Hearing of it, the good man left the city and came to Prayaga. He gave up his body there, firm in his resolve, O fair-faced one.
