मद्यमांस रतो यस्तु पशु हिंसा परो वृथा । शुद्ध कामो भवेत्सोपि चित्र चित्र तरं त्विदम् ॥ ६८॥

IAST

madyamāṃsa rato yastu paśu hiṃsā paro vṛthā | śuddha kāmo bhavetsopi citra citra taraṃ tvidam || 68||

English

That one devoted to liquor and meat and needlessly intent on harming animals should nevertheless claim pure desire—this would be strange, stranger than strange.
