बालवेतालवद्भ्रान्तिर्न विद्या जाग्रगापि हि ।
अविचारेण संरूढा विचारेणोपशाम्यति ॥ १४ ॥

bālavetālavadbhrāntirna vidyā jāgragāpi hi |
avicāreṇa saṃrūḍhā vicāreṇopaśāmyati || 14 ||

The boys' apparitions of ghosts, never lay hold on adults and the waking, nor on any one in the day light and open air; this and similar errors arise in our ignorance only, but they vanish upon our second thought and true knowledge of them.
