Viliyaathu nirkum pali
Lusting after the neighbour's wife, because it is easy,Would lead only to lasting disgrace.
Such disreputable liaison invariably ends up in sin and shame, for which there is no end.
This
idea

In

( Kamba Ramayanam-Mantram: 52 )
The following lines of the Bible on the man who commits adultery are relevant here.

get
and
his
reproach
shall
not
be
wiped
away'.
(proverbs 6:33)
