Verse 5.80.17

चित्त वल्गसि मिथ्यैव दृष्टोऽन्तो भवतो मया ।
आद्यन्तयोः सुतुच्छं त्वं वर्तमाने विनश्यसि ॥ १७ ॥

citta valgasi mithyaiva dṛṣṭo'nto bhavato mayā |
ādyantayoḥ sutucchaṃ tvaṃ vartamāne vinaśyasi || 17 ||

O my mind! says the intelligent man, it is in vain that thou deludest me, who have known thy first and last as nothing;and if thou art so mean in thy nature (as the progeny of barren woman) thou must be so as nothing even at present.
