7.58.1
तिरश्चिराजेरसितात्पृदाकोः परि संभृतम् ।
तत्कङ्कपर्वणो विषमियं वीरुदनीनशत् ॥ ७.५८.१ ॥
The poison gathered from the crosswise-crawling serpent and from the black pṛdāku, that poison in the joint of the heron — this plant has destroyed it.
7.58.2
इयं वीरुन् मधुजाता मधुश्चुन् मधुला मधूः ।
सा विह्रुतस्य भेषज्यथो मशकजम्भनी ॥ ७.५८.२ ॥
This plant, born of honey, dripping with honey, giving sweetness, sweet — she is the remedy for one bent by poison, and she destroys the gnat's bite.
7.58.3
यतो दष्टं यतो धीतं ततस्ते निर्ह्वयामसि ।
अर्भस्य तृप्रदंशिनो मशकस्यारसं विषम् ॥ ७.५८.३ ॥
Wherever it was bitten, wherever it was stung, from there we call out your poison — the juiceless poison of the small, biting gnat.
7.58.4
अयं यो वक्रो विपरुर्व्यङ्गो मुखानि वक्रा वृजिना कृणोषि ।
तानि त्वं ब्रह्मणस्पते इषीकामिव सं नमः ॥ ७.५८.४ ॥
This crooked one, with broken joints, deformed in limb, who makes crooked and wicked mouths — those, O Brahmaṇaspati, bend them together like a reed-stalk.
7.58.5
अरसस्य शर्कोटस्य नीचीनस्योपसर्पतः ।
विषं ह्यस्यादिष्यथो एनमजीजभम् ॥ ७.५८.५ ॥
The poison of the juiceless scorpion, of the one lying low and creeping near — I have drawn out its poison, and I have made this one languid too.
7.58.6
न ते बाह्वोर्बलमस्ति न शीर्षे नोत मध्यतः ।
अथ किं पापयाऽमुया पुच्छे बिभर्ष्यर्भकम् ॥ ७.५८.६ ॥
There is no strength in your arms, nor in your head, nor in the middle. Then why, with that evil tail, do you carry this small one?
7.58.7
अदन्ति त्वा पिपीलिका वि वृश्चन्ति मयूर्यः ।
सर्वे भल ब्रवाथ शार्कोटमरसं विषम् ॥ ७.५८.७ ॥
Ants bite you, scorpions sting. O all of you, speak—let the poison of the Śārkoṭa be without juice.
7.58.8
य उभाभ्यां प्रहरसि पुच्छेन चास्येन च ।
आस्ये न ते विषं किमु ते पुच्छधावसत् ॥ ७.५८.८ ॥
You strike with both—with your tail and with your mouth. There is no poison in your mouth; then what is it that flows in your tail?
