राज्यं प्राज्यं क्षितिरतिफला किङ्कराः कामचाराः, सारा हारा मदनसुभगा भोगभूम्यो रमण्यः । एतत्सर्व भवति शरणं यावदेव स्वपुण्यं, मृत्यो तु स्यान्न किमपि विनारण्यमेकं शरण्यम् ॥१६॥
Meaning :- As long as merit persists, all these – vast kingdom, extensive earth, obedient servants, precious ornaments and the ladies who are the very abode of the God of love as also who are fit to be enjoyed, - are worthy to be resorted to. But at the time of death, none or nothing gives shelter excepting a small piece of land (cemetery). (16)
