mahādarīṣu dehādrestṛṣṇākaṇṭakitāsvapi |
phalavyālāsu ca punaḥ kriyāsu pariluṭhyate || 17 ||

This tall body of ours, rising as a thief on the ground, has all its inner cells and caves, filled with the thorns of our cravings; it is the abode of the serpentine train of our actions, emitting the poison of continuous woe in our repeated transmigrations in new bodies.
