Taṃ puttapasusammattaṃ,
byāsattamanasaṃ naraṃ;
Suttaṃ gāmaṃ mahoghova,
maccu ādāya gacchati.

Death comes and carries off that man, praised for his children and flocks, his mind distracted, as a flood carries off a sleeping village.

Friedrich Max Müller 1881, The Dhammapada (Sacred Books of the East 10.1)
