Shatakatraya 1.10

1.10

śiraḥ śārvaṃ svargāt paśupati-śirastaḥ kṣitidharaṃ
mhīdhrād uttuṅgād avanim avaneś cāpi jaladhim |
adho 'dho gaṅgeyaṃ padam upagatā stokam
athavāviveka-bhraṣṭānāṃ bhavati vinipātaḥ śatamukhaḥ ||

From heaven to Śarva's head, from Paśupati's head to the mountain,
from the lofty peak to the earth, and from the earth into the ocean,
this Gaṅgā has descended step by step, ever lower;
or rather, for those fallen from discernment, downfall happens in a hundred ways.
