2.329

śravaṇād, yathā-
medo-majjā-śoṇitaiḥ picchile' ntas
tvak-pracchanne snāyu-baddhāsthi-sandhau |
sādhur dehe karma-caṇḍāla-gehe
badhnāty udyat-pūti-gandhe ratiṃ kaḥ ||

[Disgust arises] from hearing, as in:
“Within, it is slippery with fat, marrow, and blood;
covered with skin, its skeletal joints bound by sinews;
a house of deeds like an outcaste’s hovel, emitting a foul odor:
what good man can attach his love to such a body?”
