अप्राप्ताभिमतार्थानामविश्रान्तधियां परे ।
मरणैरुह्यमानानां जीवितान्मरणं वरम् ॥ १३ ॥

aprāptābhimatārthānāmaviśrāntadhiyāṃ pare |
maraṇairuhyamānānāṃ jīvitānmaraṇaṃ varam || 13 ||

Otherwise it is better for them to die away than live in this world, who are unsuccessful in desires and ever restless and perplexed in their minds; and such as are buffeting and borne by the waves of deadly troubles.
