Verse 1.26.20

मनो विमुह्यतीवान्तर्मुदिता दूरतां गता ।
नोज्ज्वला करुणोदेति दूरादायाति नीचता ॥ २० ॥

mano vimuhyatīvāntarmuditā dūratāṃ gatā |
nojjvalā karuṇodeti dūrādāyāti nīcatā || 20 ||

The mind is stupified within itself, and its contentment has fled from it: there is no rise of enlightened sentiments in it, and meanness makes its advance to it from a distance.
