नित्यमुद्दामवैराग्यः परिव्राडिव शान्तधीः ।
खिद्यते च महाभोगान्स भोक्तुं च श्रियं स्थितः ॥ ३ ॥

nityamuddāmavairāgyaḥ parivrāḍiva śāntadhīḥ |
khidyate ca mahābhogānsa bhoktuṃ ca śriyaṃ sthitaḥ || 3 ||

He found his consolation in lonely retreats, in the caves of mountains and beside their falling waters; where he strayed at large, like the beasts of prey flying from the arrows of huntsmen.
