ithe kṛta biṣaya tṛṣṇā pahuṁ nāma-hārā yo dhāraṇe śrama tāra kutṛṣṇa-jagadānanda kṛta-kalmaṣa kumati rahala kārāgāra

Translation

One should thirst after Lord Kṛṣṇa's holy names. One should wear a necklace of Lord Kṛṣṇa's holy names. With great diligence one should meditate on Lord Kṛṣṇa's holy names. These words were spoken by Jagadānanda, a person who thirsts after the wrong things, a sinner with a wicked heart, a criminal who resides in a prison.
