Verse 3.67.42

मानमेयात्मिका शुद्धा सत्यैवासत्यवत्स्थिता ।
भिन्नेव च न भिन्ना स्याद्ब्रह्मणो ब्रंह्मणात्मिका ॥ ४२ ॥

mānameyātmikā śuddhā satyaivāsatyavatsthitā |
bhinneva ca na bhinnā syādbrahmaṇo braṃhmaṇātmikā || 42 ||

Just fancy, O Rama! how the unexpanded phantom of a Vetala or ghost, swells in bigness to the sight of fearful children; and conceive in the same manner the appearance of the living spirit from the entity of Brahma.
