Chapter 58 · A Seller of Goods and a Cowherd's Wealth
चित्रा नक्षत्र तृतीय चरण
पतिं न पूजयेद्देवि रूपगर्ववशा तथा ॥महिष्यो बहुला आसन् गावो विक्रयकारणात् ॥ ३ ॥
O Goddess, she did not honour her husband, led by pride in her looks. He had many buffaloes and cows for selling.
Classical view, not medical advice.
महिषीपुत्रघातं च प्रत्यहं खलु जायते ॥
Every day the young of buffaloes were killed. He always sold goats and killed goats too.
गोप एको महाप्राज्ञो धनार्थी स्वर्णसंयुतः ॥
There was one very wise cowherd, O great Goddess, who wanted wealth and had gold. He was born there and had been the merchant's friend from childhood.
तस्य गेहे स्थितो देवि धनधान्यसमन्वितः ॥
He stayed in the merchant's house, O Goddess, rich in money and grain. Then the merchant's wife, O Goddess, took up with the cowherd.
