Verse 6.89.29

मौर्ख्यादागामिन कालं वर्तमानक्रियाक्रमैः ।
अशोधयन्नरो दुःखं याति विन्ध्यगजो यथा ॥ २९ ॥

maurkhyādāgāmina kālaṃ vartamānakriyākramaiḥ |
aśodhayannaro duḥkhaṃ yāti vindhyagajo yathā || 29 ||

Hence all foolish people that had not foresight to prevent their future mishaps, and provide against their coming mischances by their precautions at present, are surely to be exposed like the calamity as the vindhyan elephant.
