तपनो अस्मि पिशाचानां व्याघ्रो गोमताम् इव । श्वानः सिंहम् इव दृष्ट्वा ते न विन्दन्ते न्यञ्चनम् ॥६॥
tapano asmi piśācānāṃ vyāghro gomatām iva | śvānaḥ siṃham iva dṛṣṭvā te na vindante nyañcanam ||6||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
I am a vexer (tápana) of the piçācás, as a tiger of them that have kine; like dogs on seeing a lion, they do not find a hiding-place (nyáñcana).
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
