Verse 5.53.30

इदं लब्धमिदं प्राप्स्यामीत्यार्तिर्दाहकारिणी ।
न शाम्यत्यर्करत्नानां ग्रीष्मेऽग्निरिव दुर्धियाम् ॥ ३० ॥

idaṃ labdhamidaṃ prāpsyāmītyārtirdāhakāriṇī |
na śāmyatyarkaratnānāṃ grīṣme'gniriva durdhiyām || 30 ||

This I have gained, and this I will gain, are the thoughts that constantly employ the minds of men; and the desire of a new gain is incessantly kindled in the minds of the senseless, as the ceaseless flame of the sun-stone is increased in summer heat.
