भयभोगिहिता दिष्ट्या भूयस्यो वासनाः क्षताः ॥ ८३ ॥

durāśādīrghadaurātmyadhūsarā bhogabhasmanā |
bhayabhogihitā diṣṭyā bhūyasyo vāsanāḥ kṣatāḥ || 83 ||

Ah! where is my egoism fled, with its body besmeared with the dust and dirt of worldliness, and battered by the rocks of its insatiable desires? It is bitten by the deadly dragons of fears and dangers, and pierced in its hearts by repeated disappointments and despair.
