‘‘Na kiratthi rasehi pāpiyo,
Āvāsehi vā santhavehi vā;
Vātamigaṃ gahananissitaṃ,
Vasamānesi rasehi sañjayo’’ti. (jā. 1.1.14) –

There is nothing worse, men say, than the allurements of taste, whether it be at home or among one’s friends.
Through the allurements of taste Sañjaya enticed the antelope into the house and captured him.

Eugene Watson Burlingame 1921, Buddhist Legends (Harvard Oriental Series 28–30)
