Rahular Itihasa / M. N. Dutt · Drona Parva Chapter 73 · Verse 28
Sanskrit Original
संश्रितं चापि यस्त्यक्त्वा साधुं तद्वचने रतम्। न विभर्ति नृशंसात्मा निन्दते चोपकारिणम्॥ अर्हते प्रातिवेश्याय श्राद्धं यो न ददाति च। अनर्हेभ्यश्च यो दद्याद् वृषलीपतये तथा॥ मद्यपो भिन्नमर्यादः कृतघ्नो भर्तृनिन्दकः। तेषां गतिमियां क्षिप्रं न चेद्धन्यां जयद्रथम्॥
That end which overtakes the cruel-hearted wretch who without maintaining a pious and sons obedient protege casts him off or him who without giving a deserving neighbour the offerings in a sraddha, gives them to one undeserving of them; that end that overtakes them who accept in marriage Vrishalis; that end which becomes his who indulges in wine, his who contemns those that are worthy of veneration or his who is ungrateful or his who speaks evil of his brethren, that end shall also soon overtake me if I do not slay Jayadratha.
