Verse 3.42.24

एवं सर्वमिदं भाति न सत्यं सत्यवत्स्थितम् ।
रञ्जयत्यपि मिथ्यैव स्वप्नस्त्रीसुरतोपमम् ॥ २४ ॥

evaṃ sarvamidaṃ bhāti na satyaṃ satyavatsthitam |
rañjayatyapi mithyaiva svapnastrīsuratopamam || 24 ||

Thus is every thing unreal, which appears real for the present, and it disappears into an airy nothing at last, though it might appear as charming as a fairy form in the dream.
