Verse 4.15.35

ज्ञस्याज्ञस्य च देहस्य यावद्देहमयं क्रमः ।
लोकवद्व्यवहारोऽयं सक्त्यासक्त्याथवा सदा ॥ ३५ ॥

jñasyājñasya ca dehasya yāvaddehamayaṃ kramaḥ |
lokavadvyavahāro'yaṃ saktyāsaktyāthavā sadā || 35 ||

This is the way of all flesh, whether it be the body of a wise or unwise man (to mourn for its loss). This is the usual custom of the world, whether the person was mighty or not.
