Translation
When wild deer eat the barley crop, the farmer does not feel that the cattle are growing strong; similarly, a low category woman, having a secret lover belonging to a higher category, is not a matter of satisfaction to her husband. (1)
Note
When wild deer feed on the crop, the farmer does not think that the animal is being nourished. Similarly, when the wife of a Sūdra takes a lover, who is a Vaisya, the husband of the woman does not think that he is getting rich.
