Verse 4.35.59

क्षीयते मोहमिहिका प्रभात इव शर्वरी ।
क्वापि गच्छति तज्जाड्यं विषं मन्त्रहतं यथा ॥ ५९ ॥

kṣīyate mohamihikā prabhāta iva śarvarī |
kvāpi gacchati tajjāḍyaṃ viṣaṃ mantrahataṃ yathā || 59 ||

It is then that the mist of error vanishes from view, like the shadow of night on the approach of dawn; and the frigidity of dullness is put to flight, like the poison of snake-bite by the potent charm of mantras.
