75. Those fools who are tied to these sense-objects by the stout cord of attach- ment, so very difficult to snap, come and depart, up and down, carried amain by the powerful emissary of one's own action.
[ Come and depart &c. — Become sabject to t>irth and death and assume various bodies from those of angels to those of brutes, according t© the merits of their work.
Powerful emissary &c. — Just as culprit seizing things not belonging to him is put in fetters and sentenced by the royal affair in various ways, so the Jiva, oblivious of his real nature, through his attachment to sense-object is subjected to various kinds of misery. ]

76. The deer, the elephant, the moth,' the fish and the black-bee — these five have died, being tied to one or other of the five senses viz., sound etc., through their own attachment. What then is in store for man who is attached to all these five !
[ Their own attachment : The word * guna ' in the text means both * a rope ' and * a tendency.' ]
