Verse 5.91.91

यदेव भावयत्येषा तदेव भवति क्षणात् ।
न भवद्भूमिकामुक्ता समायाति चिराद्वपुः ॥ ९१ ॥

yadeva bhāvayatyeṣā tadeva bhavati kṣaṇāt |
na bhavadbhūmikāmuktā samāyāti cirādvapuḥ || 91 ||

Whatever form it dotes upon with fondness, the same form it assumes to itself; and cannot get rid of it, as long it cherishes its affection for the same; nor return to its original purity, until it is freed from its impure passions.
