Verse 5.59.30

कष्टं मुधैव मे चिन्ता निग्रहानुग्रहस्थितौ ।
बभूव देहनिष्ठेह न किंचिदपि देहकम् ॥ ३० ॥

kaṣṭaṃ mudhaiva me cintā nigrahānugrahasthitau |
babhūva dehaniṣṭheha na kiṃcidapi dehakam || 30 ||

Alas, I find these painful thoughts of mine for the punishment, retribution and well being of my people, to be all for nothing;since whatever is done for the body, perishes with the body also.
