d. Translate into Sanscrit the following :

King Harischandra had not for a long time any son born to him. Burdened with the debt he owed to his ancestors, he prayed to Varuna, promising that if a son were born to him, he would sacrifice the boy to the god. Then a son was born to him called Rohita. When Rohita was grown up, his father one day told him of the vow he had made to Varuna, and bade him prepare to be sacrificed. The son objected to be killed, and ran away from his father's house. For six years he wandered in the forest, and at last met a starving Brahman. Him he persuaded to sell one of his sons named Sunahsepha, for a hundred cows. This boy was bought by Rohita who took him to Harischandra for his own redemption. The substituted boy was about to be sacrificed in the place of Rohita, when he piteously praying to the gods for his life, in Vedic mantras, he was released by them.

A generous man should be forgiving to his enemies like the Sandal tree which perfumes the very axe that fells it.

Abstinence from injury is the great duty. [Translate this sentence by three Sanserit words.]

Kings consider honor and reputation as treasures, but to Brahmans asceticism is wealth.

The evils of covetousness are greater than the sufferings of renunciation.
