Chapter 71 · A Bard and an Unwelcomed Guest
अनुराधा नक्षत्र चतुर्थ चरण
प्रभाते स वरारोहे शापं दत्त्वा गतस्तु वै ॥ततस्तु दैवयोगेन मार्जारी तत्र सूतिका ॥ ४ ॥
In the morning he gave a curse and left, O lovely one. Then, by chance, a cat with new kittens was there.
Classical view, not medical advice.
पञ्च पुत्रा वरारोहे घातितास्तस्य च स्त्रिया ॥
The bard's wife killed her five kittens, O lovely one. And the cat, hungry, died then.
ततो बहुतिथे काले तस्य मृत्युरभूत्पुरा ॥
After a long time he died. His faithful wife became a sati (a wife who dies with her husband) at that moment.
सत्यलोके वरारोहे युगमेकमुवास सः ॥
He lived in Satyaloka (the world of truth) for one age, O lovely one, with his wife. They had happiness as the mind wished.
