आकारभासुरं दीनं बाह्यैराक्रान्तमिन्द्रियैः ।
कर्मघण्टारवाक्रान्तं क्रान्तं दुष्कृतताडनैः ॥ २६ ॥

ākārabhāsuraṃ dīnaṃ bāhyairākrāntamindriyaiḥ |
karmaghaṇṭāravākrāntaṃ krāntaṃ duṣkṛtatāḍanaiḥ || 26 ||

We are big bodied like bulls with poor souls in us; we are oppressed at every limb, and labour under our destiny by being tied as the ringing bell, about the necks of bullocks; and the scourge of our sins lashing us on both sides.
