striyaṃ dṛṣṭvāya kitavaṃ tatāpānyeṣāṃ jāyāṃsukṛtaṃ ca yonim | pūrvāhṇe aśvān yuyuje hi babhrūn soaghnerante vṛṣalaḥ papāda

English Translation (Griffith)

Sad is the gambler when he sees a matron, another's wife, and his well-ordered dwelling. He yokes the brown steeds in the early morning, and when the fire is cold sinks down an outcast.
