विहंग्या वैरविन्यस्ता वागुरा विपिनावनौ ।
क्लेशेन महता च्छिन्ना अधमा वासना इव ॥ ४४ ॥

vihaṃgyā vairavinyastā vāgurā vipināvanau |
kleśena mahatā cchinnā adhamā vāsanā iva || 44 ||

I bear in mind when I was transformed to a bird, and with what difficulty I broke the net, that was laid by bird-catchers for my destruction. It was in the same manner as we release ourselves from the snares of sinful desires.
