O Yadu you are cognisant of religion; do you therefore take this decrepitude for me; I shall satisfy myself with various enjoyments. O foremost of men, I have not yet been satisfied with worldly enjoyments, I shall therefore again take upon myself this decrepitude after having enjoyed all objects of sense.
यदो त्वमसि धर्मज्ञो मदर्थं प्रतिगृह्यताम्। जरां परमिकां पुत्र भोगै रंस्ये महायशः॥ न तावत्कृतकृत्योऽस्मि विषयेषु नरर्षभ। अनुभूय तदा कामं ततः प्राप्स्याम्यहं जराम्॥
