Srimad Bhagavatam Canto 05, Chapter 08, Text 22

SB 5.8.22

asadita-havisi barhisi dusite mayopalabdho bhita-bhitah sapady uparata-rasa rsi-kumaravad avahita-karana-kalapa aste.
 
Translation by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada: 
 
When I placed all the sacrificial ingredients on the kusa grass, the deer, when playing, would touch the grass with its teeth and thus pollute it. When I chastised the deer by pushing it away, it would immediately become fearful and sit down motionless, exactly like the son of a saintly person. Thus it would stop its play.
 
Purport by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada: 
 
Bharata Maharaja was constantly thinking of the activities of the deer, forgetting that such meditation and diversion of attention was killing his progress in spiritual achievement.
