Verse 7.116.56

उन्मत्तमत्तपतनोन्मुखधावमानमानाधिकान्विषयवीथिषु दत्तमूर्तिः ।
यन्मन्यते तृणलवाग्र विलोकयेच्छासत्त्वं जडत्वमुत वास्य विचार्यतां तत् ॥ ५६ ॥

unmattamattapatanonmukhadhāvamānamānādhikānviṣayavīthiṣu dattamūrtiḥ |
yanmanyate tṛṇalavāgra vilokayecchāsattvaṃ jaḍatvamuta vāsya vicāryatāṃ tat || 56 ||

We see all worldly people pursuing the course of their worldliness as madmen, and pushing on in the paths of business at the sacrifice of their honor, and likely to tumble down with fatigue. I find them flying to and fro as trifling straws, and know not whether it is of their will or madness or stupidity, that they have made choice of this foolish course.
