स्रग्गन्धधूपाम्बरभूषणऽद्यं न शोभते शुक्लशिरोरुहस्य । यस्मादतो मूर्धजरागसेवां कुर्याद्यथएवाञ्जनभूषणानाम् ॥ ७७-०१ ॥

To a person whose hair are white, flower wreaths, sandal paste, perfumed smoke, clothes and jewels can give no beauty. It is therefore necessary to blacken and embellish the hair. The same attention shall be paid to it as the collyrium and jewels.
