Verse 5.24.62

वृद्धायां प्रावृषि श्रीमांशरत्काल इवामलः ।
विचारो भोगगर्हातो विचाराद्भोगगर्हणम् ॥ ६२ ॥

vṛddhāyāṃ prāvṛṣi śrīmāṃśaratkāla ivāmalaḥ |
vicāro bhogagarhāto vicārādbhogagarhaṇam || 62 ||

As the increasing gloominess of rainy clouds, is followed by the serenity of autumnal skies, so clear reasoning comes after detestation of enjoyments, which fly at the advance of reason.
