Chapter 28 · Punarvasu 1st Pada
पुनर्वसु नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
बहुकालमवात्सीत्स तत्प्रीत्या सुरसुन्दरि ॥आभीरस्य ततो देवि स्वर्णं दृष्ट्वा प्रहर्षितः ॥ १० ॥
He lived there a long time out of that friendship, O lovely goddess. Then, O Goddess, the cowherd saw the gold and was thrilled.
Classical view, not medical advice.
तस्य स्वर्णं समाहृत्य स्वगृहे स्थापितं तदा ॥
He took the brahmin's gold and hid it in his own house then. The brahmin suffered much, grieving for his wealth.
महाशोकसमायुक्तः काश्यां चैव समागतः ॥
Full of great grief, the brahmin came to Kashi. There he gave up his body, in sorrow for his gold.
शूद्रेणैव महादेवि तस्य स्वर्णं प्रभुज्यते ॥
Only the shudra (servant class) enjoyed the brahmin's gold, O great Goddess. Then, after much time, the shudra died.
