सरित्केसरिकानालमध्येऽवश्यायबिन्दुकम् ।
शर्वरिभ्रमरीभ्रान्तं भूतौघमशकाकुलम् ॥ ३ ॥

saritkesarikānālamadhye'vaśyāyabindukam |
śarvaribhramarībhrāntaṃ bhūtaughamaśakākulam || 3 ||

The rivers are the tubes of its filaments, which are covered with drops of snow resembling their dust. The days and nights rolling over it, like swarms of black-bees and butterflies, and all its living beings appearing as gnats fluttering about it.
