Verse 6.66.24

केचिदीषत्समाः केचिन्न कदाचित्पुनस्तथा ।
एवमेषातिवितता महतामपि मोहिनी ॥ २४ ॥

kecidīṣatsamāḥ kecinna kadācitpunastathā |
evameṣātivitatā mahatāmapi mohinī || 24 ||

Some are slightly altered in their figures, and others varying entirely in their forms, never regain their original likeness; so doth this prevailing error of regeneration, delude even the wise to repeated births.
