teṣāmetaiḥ śitaiḥ śastrairmuhurvilapatāṃ tvacaḥ /
pṛthak kurvanti vai yāmyāḥ śarīrādatidāruṇāḥ //

“Whoever, led by anger and covetousness, have broken up and destroyed beautiful rest-houses,[4] the abodes of gods and brāhmans, and assemblages in the temples of the gods,—Yama’s exceedingly cruel servants continually flay the skins of those men from their body by means of these sharp instruments.

Frederick Eden Pargiter 1888, The Mārkaṇḍeya Purāṇa
