Verse 3.27.59

योनिष्वनेकविधदुःखशतान्वितासु भ्रान्तं मयोन्नमनसन्नमनाकुलात्मा ।
संसारदीर्घसरितश्चलया लहर्या दुर्वारवातहरिणीसरणक्रमेण ॥ ५९ ॥

yoniṣvanekavidhaduḥkhaśatānvitāsu bhrāntaṃ mayonnamanasannamanākulātmā |
saṃsāradīrghasaritaścalayā laharyā durvāravātahariṇīsaraṇakrameṇa || 59 ||

Thus I passed through many births, in the wombs of higher and lower animals, and found them all to be full of pain. And my soul has run over the billows of the irresistible current of life, like the fleet antelope, pacing its speed with the swiftness of the wind.
