34.12

yathāsukhaṃ yathotsāhaṃ yathākāmamariṃdama
sevitā viṣayāḥ putra yauvanena mayā tava //

"Son! a man never feels satisfied with pleasures, the lust for pleasures waxes by daily indulgence, as the fire flames all the more by ghee being poured into it. I have become sober, on the consideration that the mundane boons in the form of grain, gold, domestic animals, (horses, cattle, etc.) women, are not meant for any single individual. Son! I have had enough of pleasures according to my potency by acquiring your vigour of youth; I am consequently very much pleased with you, now you take back your bloom of youth from me and also receive charge of this vast realm. You are my dearest son.”—8-13.
