7.4.46

kimutānuvaśān sādhūṃstādṛśān gurudevatān /
etat kautūhalaṃ brahmannasmākaṃ vidhama prabho /
pituḥ putrāya yaddveṣo maraṇāya prayojitaḥ //

47. (Then it is but natural) that fathers do not so cruelly treat their sons who are so obedient and righteous and look upon their parents as the Supreme Deity; O sage, O lord, be pleased to quench our curiosity on this point-how the hatred the father bore to the son led to the father's attempting the life of the son (or to the cause of the father's death).

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
