तज्जयाय यतन्ते ये न लोभलवलम्पटाः ।
ते दीनाः प्राकृता मूढाः स्थिता दैवपरायणाः ॥ ६ ॥

tajjayāya yatante ye na lobhalavalampaṭāḥ |
te dīnāḥ prākṛtā mūḍhāḥ sthitā daivaparāyaṇāḥ || 6 ||

Those carnal minded libertines who do not try the means (of reforming their fate), but depend upon the favor of fortune, are perverted in their nature and marked for misery.
