Chapter 52 · A Goldsmith and a Merchant's Gold
हस्त नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
स्वर्णकारस्य या पत्नी सुन्दरी कुलटा परा ॥प्रीत्या तदाऽभजत्पत्नी वैश्याय धनिकाय वै ॥ ४ ॥
The goldsmith's wife was beautiful and a loose woman. She gave herself lovingly to the rich merchant.
Classical view, not medical advice.
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.
नरकान्निःसृतौ तौ तु शुनो योनिं तदा गतौ ॥
Coming out of hell, both took a dog's birth. Then a bull's birth, and then a human birth.
