Nāṭyaśāstra (नाट्यशास्त्र), rasa

गुरुराजापराधेन रौद्राणां चापि दर्शनात् ।
श्रवणादपि घोराणां भयं मोहेन जायते
gururājāparādhena raudrāṇāṃ cāpi darśanāt |
śravaṇādapi ghorāṇāṃ bhayaṃ mohena jāyate

The line

By an offense against a teacher or a king, and from seeing furious beings, and from hearing terrible things, fear arises by delusion.

नेपालीमा

गुरु वा राजाप्रति अपराधले, रौद्र प्राणी देखेर र भयानक कुरा सुनेर मोहबाट भय उठ्छ।

Where it sits

The stable state bhaya (भय). The prose says it belongs to the nature of women and of the low, and lists an offense, a predator, an empty house, a forest, a mountain, an elephant, a snake, a rebuke, a wilderness, a bad day, night, darkness, and the cry of an owl or a night-animal. The verse keeps three occasions, and says the arising is by moha (मोह).
