Sanskrit Original
विपर्ययं तु तं दृष्ट्वा शरद्वान्प्रविचिन्त्य च। भविष्यमर्थं ज्ञात्वा च महात्मा त्ववमत्य तम।।
viparyayaṃ tu taṃ dṛṣṭvā śaradvānpravicintya ca| bhaviṣyamarthaṃ jñātvā ca mahātmā tvavamatya tam||
Sūta said:: On seeing this perversity, the noble-souled Śaradvān thought over it deeply. He understood the future consequences. With the eyes turned red due to anger, he disparagingly said to Dīrghatamas—“You do not distinguish between what should be approached and what should not be approached. Adopting Godharma, you have desired your own daughter-in-law. Since you are ill-behaved, I abandon you. You may go along with your evil action. Since you are blind and old (I considered) that you should be sustained, but you have acted in a vile manner. Therefore, you are forsaken.I consider you as one of evil conduct.”
