राजते स्वच्छया लक्ष्म्या शान्तेन्धन इवानलः ॥ २८ ॥

paraṃ dhairyamupādatte sthairyaṃ merurivācalaḥ |
rājate svacchayā lakṣmyā śāntendhana ivānalaḥ || 28 ||

He has his patience and steadiness like those of a rock, and he glistens as quietly in himself, as the glowing fire glitters after its fuel is burnt out.
