Verse 5.26.17

इति कथितवताथ भार्गवेण स्फुटजलराशिपथा महाजवेन ।
प्लुतमलिशबले नभोन्तराले तरलतरङ्गवदाकुले ग्रहौघैः ॥ १७ ॥

iti kathitavatātha bhārgaveṇa sphuṭajalarāśipathā mahājavena |
plutamaliśabale nabhontarāle taralataraṅgavadākule grahaughaiḥ || 17 ||

So saying, Sukra flew as a bee besmeared with the farinaceous gold-dust of the lotus, to the aureate vault of heaven; and passed through the watery path of the waving clouds, to where the revolving planets were ready to receive him.
