Sanskrit (Devanāgarī)
यथैव दंशमशकं यथा चाण्डपिपीलिकम् । सैव वृत्तिरयज्ञेषु तथा धर्मो विधीयते ॥
English Scholarly Translation
As flies, gnats, and ants are driven off from the bodies of kine and other domestic animals, so should all persons, who are averse to the celebration of sacrifices, should be similarly driven off from the kingdom. This is quite of a piece with morality.
