maṇiḥ śāṇollīḍhaḥ samara-vijayī heti-dalito
mada-kṣīṇo nāgaḥ śaradi saritaḥ śyāna-pulināḥ |
kalā-śeṣaś candraḥ surata-mṛditā bāla-vanitā
tan-nimnā śobhante galita-vibhavāś cārthiṣu narāḥ ||

A gem polished on the whetstone; a victor in battle wounded by weapons; / an elephant thinned by rut; rivers in autumn with their sandbanks dried; / the moon reduced to a single crescent; a young woman exhausted by lovemaking; / and men whose wealth has vanished because of petitioners: these, thinned down, are splendid.
