यो यो यादृग्गुणो जन्तुः स तामेवैति संस्थितिम् ।
सदृशेष्वप्यजेषु श्वा न मध्ये रमते क्वचित् ॥ २९ ॥

yo yo yādṛgguṇo jantuḥ sa tāmevaiti saṃsthitim |
sadṛśeṣvapyajeṣu śvā na madhye ramate kvacit || 29 ||

All animals have their dispositions conforming with their own natures; how then can the pure faith of Vishnu, agree with the doggish natures of the Daityas?
