Dosair-etaih k ulaghn an am varno-samk ara-k arakaih
Utsadyante jāti-dhamiāh kula-dhannāśca śāśvatāh

43. Through these misdeeds of the destroyers of families producing the intermingling of castes, the age­ long caste-traditions and family virtues get ruined.

Utsanna-kiūa-dhcmnānāin manusyānām Janirdana
Narake niyatain vāso bhavatītyanuśuśrunui

44. O Janārdana, we have heard that residence in hell becomes inevitable for those men who have lost their family virtues.

hata mahat-pāpam kartum vyavasitd vayam
Yad-rājya-sukha-bhhena hantum svajanam-udyatāh

45. Ah, alas ! Great sin have we determined to commit—what, through coveting the sweets of royalty, we are ready to kill our kinsmen!
