註四十二章經 1.37

1.37

愛欲斷盡而得聖果者，譬如斷其四支，更不可續。聖流斷其愛欲，更不再生惑也。

Those who cut off craving and desire completely and attain the noble fruit are like someone whose four limbs are severed, which can never be reattached. When those in the noble stream cut off their craving and desire, delusion never arises again.
