गोष्पदं पृथिवी मेरुः स्थाणुराशाः समुद्गिकाः ।
तृणं त्रिभुवनं राम नैराश्यालंकृताकृतेः ॥ ४७ ॥

goṣpadaṃ pṛthivī meruḥ sthāṇurāśāḥ samudgikāḥ |
tṛṇaṃ tribhuvanaṃ rāma nairāśyālaṃkṛtākṛteḥ || 47 ||

The man decorated with inappetency (or self sufficiency), has all in himself though possest of nothing. He spurns the deep earth as a cave, and the big mountain as the trifling trunk of a tree. He looks on all the sides of air as mere caskets, and regards the worlds as straws.
