स्वभावकेवलं शान्तं स्त्रीद्वयं तद्बभूव ह ।
चन्द्रार्कादिपदार्थौघैर्दूरमुक्तमिवाम्बरम् ॥ ११ ॥

svabhāvakevalaṃ śāntaṃ strīdvayaṃ tadbabhūva ha |
candrārkādipadārthaughairdūramuktamivāmbaram || 11 ||

The two ladies then became as quiet as inert nature herself, and as still as firmament before the luminous bodies rolled about in its ample sphere.
