शरीरकानने मत्ता विविधोल्लासकारिणी ।
मत्तेन्द्रियोग्रकलभा रसनाकलभाषिणी ॥ ७९ ॥

śarīrakānane mattā vividhollāsakāriṇī |
mattendriyograkalabhā rasanākalabhāṣiṇī || 79 ||

Vasishtha replied:—Rama! it is our concupiscence which has the gigantic figure of this elephant, and which roams at random in the forest of our bodies, and sports in the demonstrations of all our passions and feelings.
