Dhamma Verses (Dhammapada, KN 2)

18: The Chapter about Stains – 226
The great defilements
While the Buddha was preaching the Dhamma, one lay
follower fell asleep, another scratched the earth, one shook a
tree, another looked at the sky and only one listened
attentively; the Buddha explained they were a snake, an
earthworm, a monkey, an astrologer and a student of the
Vedas in their previous births and behave accordingly now,
and then he spoke this verse.
251. Natthi rāgasamo aggi, natthi dosasamo gaho,
natthi mohasamaṁ jālaṁ, natthi taṇhāsamā nadī.
There’s no fire that is like passion,
nothing that takes hold like hatred,
there is no snare like delusion,
and there is no flood like craving.
