यः स्वादयन्भोगविषं रतिमेति दिने दिने ।
सोऽग्नौ स्वमूर्ति ज्वलिते कक्षमक्षयमुज्झति ॥ २२ ॥

yaḥ svādayanbhogaviṣaṃ ratimeti dine dine |
so'gnau svamūrti jvalite kakṣamakṣayamujjhati || 22 ||

But whoso finds a zest for the poisonous pleasures of life, increasing in himself day by day; casts his body and mind to be consumed in their burning flame, and loses his endless felicity.
