कपर्दकाः स्युर्भवता चत्वारोऽष्टौ च कालतः ।
ततः शतं सहस्रं च सहस्रे चेति चेतसा ॥ १९ ॥

kapardakāḥ syurbhavatā catvāro'ṣṭau ca kālataḥ |
tataḥ śataṃ sahasraṃ ca sahasre ceti cetasā || 19 ||

As he searched and turned about, he ran and turned it ever in his mind, saying:—Ah! this single couri would make four by its commerce, and that would bring me eight in time, and this would make a hundred and a thousand, and more and more by repetition, so I have lost a treasure in this.
