4.9.35

svārājyaṃ yacchato mauḍhyān māno me bhikṣito bata /
īśvarāt kṣīṇa-puṇyena phalī-kārān ivādhanaḥ //

35. At the hands of the Supreme Lord who can bestow essential blissfulness on me, alas! I foolishly begged for pride (the royal fortune, the cause of pride) like a penniless person who having lost the merit of his virtuous deeds begs an emperor for mere chaff.

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
