तृष्णयाशयकौशिक्या हृद्यमङ्गलभूतया ।
रूढया भगवानेष विष्णुर्वामनतां गतः ॥ १९ ॥

tṛṣṇayāśayakauśikyā hṛdyamaṅgalabhūtayā |
rūḍhayā bhagavāneṣa viṣṇurvāmanatāṃ gataḥ || 19 ||

The heart which is nestled by the ominous owl of avarice, is as bemeaned as the god Vishnu, who became a dwarf in begging a bit of ground from Bali.
