Chapter 52 · A Goldsmith and a Merchant's Gold
हस्त नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
व्यापारार्थं गृहीतं तु वैश्यस्वर्णं तदा प्रिये ॥पलं शतमितं देवि विक्रयं चाकरोत्किल ॥ ३ ॥
For trade, dear one, the goldsmith took the merchant's gold. They say he sold a hundred pala (a unit of weight) of it.
Classical view, not medical advice.
स्वर्णकारस्य या पत्नी सुन्दरी कुलटा परा ॥
The goldsmith's wife was beautiful and a loose woman. She gave herself lovingly to the rich merchant.
एवं बहुगते काले वैश्यस्य मरणे सति ॥
After many days the merchant died. Later the goldsmith died too, O lovely one.
उभौ च नरके प्राप्तौ बहुकालं तु दोषतः ॥
Both reached hell for a long time because of their fault. They suffered the pain of hell for one yuga (age), O Goddess.
