धावित्वा ये चिरं कालं प्राप्तविश्रान्तयः स्थिताः ।
ते सुप्ता इव लक्ष्यन्ते व्यवहारपरा अपि ॥ ११ ॥

dhāvitvā ye ciraṃ kālaṃ prāptaviśrāntayaḥ sthitāḥ |
te suptā iva lakṣyante vyavahāraparā api || 11 ||

They who after running their long race, in the active course of worldly life; have come at last to set themselves at ease and quiet, at the latter end of their lives, are as men that appear to fall fast asleep, and enjoy their repose after the vexatious dreams of their busy days.
