Verse 3.119.37

मुकुरप्रतिबिम्बस्थे नगरे नवयोजने ।
यथा दूरमदूरं च तथेशे तदतत्क्रमः ॥ ३७ ॥

mukurapratibimbasthe nagare navayojane |
yathā dūramadūraṃ ca tatheśe tadatatkramaḥ || 37 ||

Look at the reflection of a longsome landscape in a mirror, and the picture of a far stretching city in the miniature; and you will find the distances of the objects lost in their closeness. So the distances of worlds are lost in their propinquity to one another in the spirit of God.
