प्रभ्रमत्पुण्यडिण्डीरो ज्वलन्नरकवाडवः ।
तृष्णाविलोललहरिर्मनोजलमतङ्गजः ॥ ६ ॥

prabhramatpuṇyaḍiṇḍīro jvalannarakavāḍavaḥ |
tṛṣṇāvilolalaharirmanojalamataṅgajaḥ || 6 ||

Here goodness and good actions float on the surface, as its froth and foams; but they hide the deadly latent heat of hellfire underneath. Here roll the incessant billows of avarice, and there snores the huge whale, and the great leviathan of the mind.
