सूक्ष्मेभ्यो ऽअपि प्रसङ्गेभ्यः स्त्रियो रक्ष्या) विशेषतः ।[म्स्त्रिया] द्वयोर् हि कुलयोः शोकम् आवहेयुर्) अरक्षिताः ॥
sūkṣmebhyo 'api prasaṅgebhyaḥ striyo rakṣyā) viśeṣataḥ |[M.striyā] dvayor hi kulayoḥ śokam āvaheyur) a.rakṣitāḥ ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Women must particularly be guarded against evil. inclinations, however trifling (they may appear); for, if they are not guarded, they will bring sorrow on two families.
