ajīryatām amṛtānām upetya jīryan martyaḥ kvadhaḥsthaḥ prajānan /
abhidhyāyan varṇaratipramodān atidīrghe jīvite ko rameta //
28. When one has come into the presence of undecaying immortals,
What decaying mortal here below that understands,
That meditates upon the pleasures of beauty and delight,
Would delight in a life over-long ?
