Manu 2.94
न जातु कामः कामानाम् उपभोगेन शाम्यति) । हविषा कृष्णवर्त्मा-इव भूय एव-अभिवर्धते) ॥
na jātu kāmaḥ kāmānām upabhogena śāmyati) | haviṣā kṛṣṇavartmā-iva bhūya eva-abhivardhate) ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Desire is never extinguished by the enjoyment of desired objects; it only grows stronger like a fire (fed) with clarified butter.
