न च आहृष्यन् न च अमोदन् वणिजो न प्रसारयन् | न च अशोभन्त पण्यानि न अपचन् गृह मेधिनः || २-४८-४
naShTam dR^iShTvaa na abhyanandan vipulam vaa dhana aagamam | putram prathamajam labdhvaa jananii na abhyanandata || 2-48-5
Translation
None was either delightful or merry. Merchants no longer exhibited their wares, nor their merchandise looked charming. Those in charge of home did not attend to cooking.
