6.70.1
yáthā māṃsám yáthā súrā yáthākṣā́ adhidévane |
yáthā puṃsó vr̥ṣaṇyatá striyā́ṃ nihanyáte mánaḥ |
evā́ te aghnye mánó 'dhi vatsé ní hanyatām ||1||
As flesh, as strong-drink, as dice on the gambling-board; as of a lustful man the mind is fastened (ni-han) on a woman—-so let thy mind, O inviolable one (aghnyā́), be fastened on thy calf.
