Bhagavatapurana 4.26.26

4.26.26

tan me prasīda suhṛdaḥ kṛta-kilbiṣasya svairaṃ gatasya mṛgayāṃ vyasanāturasya /
kā devaraṃ vaśa-gataṃ kusumāstra-vega- visrasta-pauṃsnam uśatī na bhajeta kṛtye //

26. Therefore be pleased to restore to thy favour, me, thy friend, though an offender in having at my own will gone out to hunt, being mad with that passion; still who is it she that would not

lovingly accept for worthy duties the services of one who is already under control and is further rendered powerless by the violence of Manmatha?
