Creatures that have hands, forsooth, become strong and acquire riches. men are forced by men to become servants, and are repeatedly afflicted with death, imprisonment, and other punishments. Although such is their condition yet even they laugh and sport and become merry.
पाणिमन्तो बलवन्तो धनवन्तो न संशयः। मनुष्या मानुषैरेव दासत्वमुपपादिताः॥ वधबन्धपरिक्लेशैः क्लिश्यन्ते च पुनः पुनः। ते खल्वपि रमन्ते च मोदन्ते च हसन्ति च॥
