Nāṭyaśāstra (नाट्यशास्त्र), rasa

बीभत्सः क्षोभजः शुद्ध उद्वेगी स्यात् द्वितीयकः ।
विष्ठाकृमिभिरुद्वेगी क्षोभजो रुधिरादिअजः
bībhatsaḥ kṣobhajaḥ śuddha udvegī syāt dvitīyakaḥ |
viṣṭhākṛmibhirudvegī kṣobhajo rudhirādiajaḥ

The line

The disgusting is born of agitation, the pure one, and the disturbing would be the second. The disturbing is by excrement and worms. The one born of agitation is born of blood and the rest.

नेपालीमा

क्षोभबाट जन्मेको बीभत्स शुद्ध हो र विचलित पार्ने दोस्रो हो। विचलित पार्ने विष्ठा र कीराबाट हुन्छ, र क्षोभबाट जन्मेको रगत आदिबाट जन्मन्छ।

Where it sits

Two, not three. Udvegī (उद्वेगी) disturbs. Kṣobhaja (क्षोभज) agitates, and the verse calls that one pure in the first quarter and born of blood in the second. The verse's own pair stays as written.
