Verse 7.24.15

कल्लोलकलिलं शून्यं चेतः शुष्काब्धिदुर्भगम् ।
मामिन्द्रियार्थैकपरं न स्पृशन्ति विवेकिनः ॥ १५ ॥

kallolakalilaṃ śūnyaṃ cetaḥ śuṣkābdhidurbhagam |
māmindriyārthaikaparaṃ na spṛśanti vivekinaḥ || 15 ||

I being entirely inclined or given up to the objects of sense, am abandoned by the wise (who hate to touch the vile); and my mind which is polluted by worldly desires, and is all hollow within, is shunned by them as a dead sea with its troubled and turbid waters.
