आशापाशनिबद्धोऽन्तरितश्चेतश्च नीयते ।
यो विलोलमनोवृत्त्या मरणं तस्य राजते ॥ ३९ ॥

āśāpāśanibaddho'ntaritaścetaśca nīyate |
yo vilolamanovṛttyā maraṇaṃ tasya rājate || 39 ||

Death is welcomed by him, whose mind is enchained in the trap of greedy desires and thrills between its hopes and fears; and who is hurried and carried about in quest of greed, and is always restless within himself.
