kṣetrāpaṇagṛhāsaktam anyatra gatamānasam
vṛkīvoraṇam āsādya mṛtyur ādāya gacchati //

While his mind is fixed upon his field, or traffic, or his house, or while his thoughts are engrossed by some other (beloved) object, death suddenly carries him away as his, prey, as a she-wolf catches a lamb.

Julius Jolly 1880, The Institutes of Vishnu
