amaṅgalākāradharaḥ śarīraśavāvalīsaṃtatasevanena |
digāvalīsaṃbhramaṇaśramārtaḥ śmaśānasevī vapuṣā kṣatena || 74 ||

Repress, O Rama! thy vulture-like heart, that bears an ominous figure by its insatiate greediness for dead bodies; it flies about on all sides and being annoyed by the hungry crows and kites, it rests in desolate cemeteries.
