पूर्वापरविचारार्हा कथं नष्टा तव स्मृतिः ।
तयैव ज्ञायते सर्वं करामलकवत्स्वयम् ॥ ६४ ॥

pūrvāparavicārārhā kathaṃ naṣṭā tava smṛtiḥ |
tayaiva jñāyate sarvaṃ karāmalakavatsvayam || 64 ||

But tell me first, how you have lost your remembrance of what I have told you on this subject; since it is possible by your reconsideration of all that from first to last, to know every thing from your own memory, as they have a survey of the earth from a small globe in their hand.
