दीपप्रभेवाविज्ञातगतिर्गत्याशु लीयते ।
अयःसूच्यां मातरीव तत्र निर्वृतिमेति सा ॥ २८ ॥

dīpaprabhevāvijñātagatirgatyāśu līyate |
ayaḥsūcyāṃ mātarīva tatra nirvṛtimeti sā || 28 ||

The unseen force of mobility, is soon lost in the solid body, as the light of the lamp is lost in darkness. So the living Suchi came to be lost in the iron needle, in which she had her rest.
