Verse 4.53.3

क्व भविष्यति निर्माणं वर्तमाने क्व गम्यता ।
उभयार्थविरुद्धत्वान्मन्मोहाय वचस्तव ॥ ३ ॥

kva bhaviṣyati nirmāṇaṃ vartamāne kva gamyatā |
ubhayārthaviruddhatvānmanmohāya vacastava || 3 ||

You said sir, that this prince constructs for himself a new abode, whilst residing in his present body; and removes to the same after he has left the old frame. This seems impossible to me, as the joining of one tense with another, the present with the future.
