यावन्नारीं मातरं च गौरवे चाधिके स्थिताम् । अवध्यां तु विजानीयुः पशवोऽप्यविचक्षणाः ॥
English Scholarly Translation
She whom I have been ordered to kill is a woman. That woman is again my own mother. She occupies, therefore, a place of greater respect. The very beasts which are irrational, know that the mother should not be killed.
