नभोमार्गमहानीलकुट्टिमैकान्तशालिनी ।
भुवनौदररम्यान्तः स्फुरत्यादित्यदीपिका ॥ २६ ॥

nabhomārgamahānīlakuṭṭimaikāntaśālinī |
bhuvanaudararamyāntaḥ sphuratyādityadīpikā || 26 ||

The blue vault of heaven appears as a spacious and elevated dome to the ignorant who think it to contain all the worlds, which are enlightened by the light of the sun situated in the midst. But it is an empty sphere, and so the other worlds beyond the solar system, to which the solar light doth never reach.
