सो वलयकानि सुवर्णसूत्रं च यस्य काये ओहरति ।
न भूयो चरे दुःखार्त्तो आर्त्ता स्मरन्ति दशबलस्य ॥ ५७ ॥
so valayakāni suvarṇasūtraṃ ca yasya kāye oharati |
na bhūyo care duḥkhārtto ārttā smaranti daśabalasya || 57 ||
He who takes from off his body the bracelets and the thread of gold will no longer live tormented by ill: those tormented will remind themselves of the Dashabala. (57)
