असंख्याताः पुरा जाता जायन्ते चापि वाद्य भोः ।
उत्पतिष्यन्ति चैवाम्बुकणौघा इव निर्झरात् ॥ २ ॥

asaṃkhyātāḥ purā jātā jāyante cāpi vādya bhoḥ |
utpatiṣyanti caivāmbukaṇaughā iva nirjharāt || 2 ||

It has undergone many prior births, and is in the course of migrating into many more; it will transmigrate into many more also, which are as multitudinous as the flitting particles of a water-fall.
