जनो जीमूतजठरजलवद्गिरिकुक्षिषु ।
यात्यन्तःशून्य एवास्तं पांसूपचयपेलवः ॥ ५९ ॥

jano jīmūtajaṭharajalavadgirikukṣiṣu |
yātyantaḥśūnya evāstaṃ pāṃsūpacayapelavaḥ || 59 ||

Man passes away as soon, as the rain-water glides down the mountain glades; and is carried away by the hand of death as quickly, as a heap of hollow ashes is blown away by the wind.
