The following is one of many Sanskrit verses that humorize female senescence.

Devanagari text:

किं कारणं स्तनद्वन्द्वं पतितं ब्रूहि ते प्रिये|
पश्याधःखनने मूर्ख गिरयोऽपि पतन्ति हि||

Harvard-Kyoto transliteration:

Loose translation: (An old man says to his old wife:) O beloved! Pray tell, for what reason do your breasts sag?
(She replies:) Don't you see, you fool? If you keep digging at the base, even mountains topple!
