Verse 7.6.7

नान्तोऽस्त्यस्य न च स्थैर्यावस्थाऽविश्रान्तमानसम् ।
भ्रमतो भोगभङ्गेषु मरुभूमिष्विवाध्वनः ॥ ७ ॥

nānto'styasya na ca sthairyāvasthā'viśrāntamānasam |
bhramato bhogabhaṅgeṣu marubhūmiṣvivādhvanaḥ || 7 ||

The unwary mind, ever running after its frail pleasures, and floating as it were upon the breakers of its enjoyments, has no end of its rambling, nor rest after its toils; but wanders onward in the desert paths of this dreary world.
