Verse 5.54.50

पयोद इव तापिच्छं नीहारमिव मारुतः ।
दीपस्तम इवाच्छात्म तदप्याशु ममार्ज सः ॥ ५० ॥

payoda iva tāpicchaṃ nīhāramiva mārutaḥ |
dīpastama ivācchātma tadapyāśu mamārja saḥ || 50 ||

When, as the rain water washes off the blackness of tamala leaves, and as a gust of wind drives away the morning mist, and as the light of a lamp disperses the darkness; so returned to him, his spiritual light, and removed the blue vacuum, of his mind, by filling it with its benign radiance.
