भग्नाशस्य करण्डपीडितंतेनोर्म्लानेन्द्रियस्य क्षुधा ।
कृत्वा खुर्विवरं स्वयं निपतितो नक्तं मुख्य भोगिनः ।।
तप्तस्तत्पिशितेन सत्वरमसौ तेनैव थातः पथा ।
लोकाःपश्यत दैवमेव हि नृणां वृद्धौ क्षये कारणं ।।
A snake was lying locked in a box, disappointed with life, relaxed from the body and was getting distraught with hunger. At that time, a mouse entered through a hole in the box during the night, hoping to get some food and fell into the snake's mouth. The snake was satisfied after eating it and went out of the way of the hole made by the same rat and became free. Seeing this phenomenon, humans should understand the divine as the only reason for their growth and decay.
