rathyāgatamavijñātaṃ dāsavargādināhṛtam /
vākrapraśāstaṃ cirātītamanekāntaritaṃ laghu //

Pure are alms, a workman’s hand, wares for sale, and a woman’s face, whatever passes along the high-road, what is unknown, what is brought by slaves and other menials, what is admirable for its sound, what is long past, what is screened by many, what is light, what is extremely abundant, what is young, and what is done by the old and the sickly, kitchens when the business in them is ended, women who are suckling children. Pure also are running water, and odourless bubbles.

Frederick Eden Pargiter 1888, The Mārkaṇḍeya Purāṇa
