कर्मवात्या परिभ्रान्ता लुठन्ति गिरिकुक्षिषु ॥ १७ ॥

kāścijjanasahasrāntāḥ patanti vanaparṇavat |
karmavātyā paribhrāntā luṭhanti girikukṣiṣu || 17 ||

Thousands of living souls, are falling off as fast as the leaves of forest trees; and being borne away by the force of their pursuits, they are rolling about as the fallen leaves wafted by the breeze in the valleys.
