याजकाः performers of sacrifice, उग्रप्रतिग्रहीतारम् accepting unmerited charity, पतितं यथा like an outcaste, स्त्रियः women, कामयानम् इव to a lustful one, त्वाम् you, नावजानन्ति कच्चित् hope they are not insulting you.

Just like a performer of sacrifice scorns at an outcaste or a woman scorns at a lustful lover, do the subjects not scorn you for collecting taxes more than what is due?
