रूपमायुर्मनो बुद्धिरहंकारस्तथेहितम् ।
भारो भारधरस्येव सर्वं दुःखाय दुर्धियः ॥ १४ ॥

rūpamāyurmano buddhirahaṃkārastathehitam |
bhāro bhāradharasyeva sarvaṃ duḥkhāya durdhiyaḥ || 14 ||

A goodly person possessed of life, mind, intellect and self-consciousness and its occupations, is of no avail to the unwise, but seem to be his over-loadings as those upon a porter.
