Verse 7.86.59

कालेनाकुलचेष्टयान्य इव ते गच्छन्त्यधोर्ध्वं पुनदेहालेखनखेदितान्यगणितान्यन्यानि चान्यान्यलम् ।
भूताम्बूनि वहन्ति संसृतिमये तान्यम्बुधौ चञ्चले चक्रावृत्तिमयानि संकलयितुं शक्नोति कस्तान्यलम् ॥ ५९ ॥

kālenākulaceṣṭayānya iva te gacchantyadhordhvaṃ punadehālekhanakheditānyagaṇitānyanyāni cānyānyalam |
bhūtāmbūni vahanti saṃsṛtimaye tānyambudhau cañcale cakrāvṛttimayāni saṃkalayituṃ śaknoti kastānyalam || 59 ||

Being at last harassed in their different pursuits, all beings attain either to higher or lower states in their destined times;and then being shackled to the prison houses of their bodies, they have to pass through endless varieties of births in various forms. Thus the drops of living beings, have to roll about in the whirlpool of the vast ocean of worldly life, for an indefinite period of time, which no body can gainsay or count.
