पूर्वमेवासि नासीस्त्वं संप्रत्येव शठं जगत् ।
न भविष्यसि चेदानीं वेताल किं न लज्जसे ॥ २५ ॥

pūrvamevāsi nāsīstvaṃ saṃpratyeva śaṭhaṃ jagat |
na bhaviṣyasi cedānīṃ vetāla kiṃ na lajjase || 25 ||

O the gigantic monster of the world! which has its existence in no time. Art thou not ashamed, O my mind, to assume to thyself this deceitful form the world, and appear before me in this hideous shape?
