विषया विषवैषम्या वामाः कामविमोहदाः ।
रसाः सरसवैरस्या लुठन्नेषु न को हतः ॥ ३९ ॥

viṣayā viṣavaiṣamyā vāmāḥ kāmavimohadāḥ |
rasāḥ sarasavairasyā luṭhanneṣu na ko hataḥ || 39 ||

The sensibles are causes of our insensibility as poison, and women are deluders of men and provokers of their passions; all sweets are but gall, and all pleasures are only a sort of pleasing pain.
