Sanskrit (Devanāgarī)
एकमाशीविषो हन्ति शस्त्रेणैकश्च वध्यते । हन्ति विप्रः सराष्ट्राणि पुराण्यपि हि कोपितः ॥
English Scholarly Translation
Yayati said : The snake kills only one. The sharpest weapon kills but a single person. But the Brahmana, if angry, destroys many cities and kingdoms. Therefore, O beautiful lady, I think that Brahmanas should be avoided more than the two, (the snake and the fire) O amiable lady, I cannot marry you, unless your father bestows you on me.
