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.
एवं बहुगते काले तस्य गोपस्य वै मृतिः ॥
After a long time the cowherd died. His wealth, O great Goddess, stayed in the merchant's house.
