Sanskrit: अङ्गं गलितं पलितं मुण्डंदशन विहीनं जातं तुण्डम् |वृद्धो याति गृहीत्वा दण्डंतदपि न मुञ्चत्याशा पिण्डम् 
English: Strength has left the old man’s body; his head has become bald, his gums toothless and leaning on crutches. Even then he can not let go of his attachment, clinging firmly to fruitless hopes and desires. (Stanza attributed to Hastamalaka.)
