Verse 6.105.21

धैर्यमाश्रित्य कुम्भोऽत्र पुनराह रघूद्वह ।
किमज्ञ इव शोचामि किं मम क्षतमात्मनः ॥ २१ ॥

dhairyamāśritya kumbho'tra punarāha raghūdvaha |
kimajña iva śocāmi kiṃ mama kṣatamātmanaḥ || 21 ||

The pretended Kumbha then, seeming to recover his senses and his patience also, thus spoke out to himself; ah! why do I wail like the ignorant (for this change in my changeful body), when my soul suffers no change by this?
