varaṃ pakṣa-cchedaḥ samadamaghavan-mukta-kuliśaprahārair
udgacchad-bahula-dahanodgāra-gurubhiḥ |
tuṣārādreḥ sūnor ahaha pitari kleśa-vivaśe
na cāsau sampātaḥ payasi payasāṃ patyur ucitaḥ ||
Far better had been the cutting off of his wings by blows of the thunderbolt hurled by haughty Indra, / heavy with rising, massy bursts of fire; / but for that son of the snowy mountain, while his father was helpless in distress, / alas, this plunging into the water of the lord of waters was not fitting.
