27. Being endowed with a poor strength of reason I am not able to curb the mind spoiled by _kama_ and _karma_ and dragged hither and thither by the unruly senses.
S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam

28. Being thus helpless I have now approached Thy feet which are not accessible to the unrighteous, and that too is Thy own grace, O Lord, I think. Only when one is released from Samsara, O Lord of the Lotus navel, one finds it impossible to practise the right contemplation and gain settled knowledge of Thyself.
S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
