Verse 6.66.6

यावत्कुतश्चिदप्येवं भिक्षुर्लब्धो न तादृशः ।
कथं किल मनोराज्यं बहिरप्युपलभ्यते ॥ ६ ॥

yāvatkutaścidapyevaṃ bhikṣurlabdho na tādṛśaḥ |
kathaṃ kila manorājyaṃ bahirapyupalabhyate || 6 ||

I had my head running upon the search, but could not meet anywhere a mendicant of that description; because it is impossible to find in the outer world, the fictions of our air built castle.
