27.12
dyutād dharmasutaḥ, palād iha bako, madyād yador nandanaḥ,
śakro jāratayā, mṛgāntakatayā sa brahmadatto nṛpaḥ;
coratvāc ca yayātir, anyavanitāsaṅgād daśāsyo mahān,
ekaikavyasanād dhatā iti narāḥ, sarvair na ko naśyati? || 12 ||
Through gambling the son of Dharma, through meat Baka here, through liquor the son of Yadu, / Śakra through adultery, through slaughtering deer that King Brahmadatta; / through theft Yayāti, through association with another’s woman the mighty ten-headed [Rāvaṇa]— / destroyed by a single vice each are these men: who would not perish through all of them?
