Verse 7.3.29

प्रवाहपतिते कार्ये ईषत्स्पन्दा अतन्मयाः ।
घूर्णमाना इव क्षीबा यन्त्रसंचारिता इव ॥ २९ ॥

pravāhapatite kārye īṣatspandā atanmayāḥ |
ghūrṇamānā iva kṣībā yantrasaṃcāritā iva || 29 ||

The meek are slightly moved in their bodies and minds, by the current of business in which they have fallen; but the reckless are carried onward whirling in the torrent, like drunken sots reclining on the ground, or as anything moved by a machine.
