निर्गच्छति जगज्जालात्पञ्जरादिव केसरी ॥ २ ॥

nirgacchati jagajjālātpañjarādiva kesarī || 2 ||

He breaks down all the bonds of his caste and creed, and the rites and restraints of his order by the battery of the sastra; and roves freed from the snare of society, as a lion breaking loose from his cage, and roaming rampant every where.
