1.6.66

[47] tataś ca kṣaṇaṃ munitām eva vyavasyan munis tau paśyan vaśya-manā babhūva | tataś ca,
yadyapi pitroḥ snehānvaya-maya-bālyaika-tānau tau |
tad api munis taj jñānaṃ śaṅkitavān saṅkucann āsīt || [upagīti]
saṅkocād iva gopa prabhum anu sa munir vidhāpayann ājñām |
calito' py alabhata tasmin sthita iva tat-tat-parisphūrtim || [āryā]

[47] Then, reflecting for a moment on his very status as an ascetic, the sage looked at the two of them and his mind was captivated. And then:
Although the two boys were absorbed solely in childhood imbued with the flow of their parents' affection,
yet the sage became apprehensive of his knowledge of them and felt awed and restrained.
Out of such hesitation, as it were, O cowherd, the sage had his instruction given after the Lord;
and though he departed, he obtained their various manifestations within just as if he were still standing near him.
