Verse 5.47.4

अयं सोऽहमिदं कार्यमिदं नेति ददर्श ह ।
निशाव्यपगमे लोको यथा क्षीणे तमःपटे ॥ ४ ॥

ayaṃ so'hamidaṃ kāryamidaṃ neti dadarśa ha |
niśāvyapagame loko yathā kṣīṇe tamaḥpaṭe || 4 ||

He then said to himself, I am the same Gadhi and in the same function (of my sacred ablution in the water). All this is nothing that I had been seeing so long, and this I see as clearly as men see things after dispersion of the shade of night.
