1.81

ratnair mahārhais tutuṣur na devā
na bhejire bhīma-viṣeṇa bhītim |
sudhāṃ vinā na parayur virāmaṃ
na niścitārthād viramanti dhīrāḥ ||

The gods were not satisfied with priceless gems, / nor did they succumb to dread at the terrible poison; / they did not rest until they gained the nectar— / the steadfast do not turn back from an intended goal.
