विष्णुः क्षीरोदधौ तिष्ठन्जायते पुरुषो भुवि ।
पश्वर्थं यान्ति तिष्ठन्त्यो योगिन्यो योगिनीगणे ॥ ३० ॥

viṣṇuḥ kṣīrodadhau tiṣṭhanjāyate puruṣo bhuvi |
paśvarthaṃ yānti tiṣṭhantyo yoginyo yoginīgaṇe || 30 ||

So also doth the god Vishnu appear in human forms on earth, while he sleeps at ease in the milky ocean; and the yoginis of heaven hover over animal sacrifices on earth, while they reside in their groups in the etherial sphere.
