वासनायास्तथा वह्नेर्ऋणव्याधिद्विषामपि ।
स्नेहवैरविषाणां यः शेषः स्वल्पोऽपि बाधते ॥ २१ ॥

vāsanāyāstathā vahnerṛṇavyādhidviṣāmapi |
snehavairaviṣāṇāṃ yaḥ śeṣaḥ svalpo'pi bādhate || 21 ||

The heart that preserves the slightest remnant of any desire in it, it again filled with its full growth to luxuriance; as the little remainder of fire or the enemy, and of a debt and disease, and also of love and hatred, is enough to involve one in his ruin as a single drop of poison kills a man.
