Verse 3.84.46

त्यक्तोपमानममनोज्ञपदं दुरापं क्षुब्धं धराविधुरितं विनिगीर्णवर्णम् ।
श्रोतुर्न याति हृदयं प्रविनाशमेति वाक्यं किलाज्यमिव भस्मनि हूयमानम् ॥ ४६ ॥

tyaktopamānamamanojñapadaṃ durāpaṃ kṣubdhaṃ dharāvidhuritaṃ vinigīrṇavarṇam |
śroturna yāti hṛdayaṃ pravināśameti vākyaṃ kilājyamiva bhasmani hūyamānam || 46 ||

The speech which is without suitable comparisons and graceful phraseology, which is inaudible or clamorous, and has inappropriate words and harsh sounding letters, cannot take possession of the heart, but is thrown away for nothing, like butter poured upon the burnt ashes of an oblation, and has no power to kindle the flame.
