2.18
tasyāḥ stanau yadi ghanau jaghanaṃ ca hāri
vaktraṃ ca cāru tava citta kim ākulatvam |
puṇyaṃ kuruṣva yadi teṣu tavāsti vāñchā
puṇyair vinā na hi bhavanti samīhitārthāḥ ||
If her breasts are plump, her hips captivating, / and her face lovely, why, O mind, is your agitation? / Perform meritorious deeds if you desire them; / for without merit, desired goals are never attained.
