दृश्यमानमपि क्षामं शरदीवाभ्रमण्डलम् ।
चित्तचित्रकृतश्चित्रे संस्थिताश्चित्रपुत्रिकाः ॥ १५ ॥

dṛśyamānamapi kṣāmaṃ śaradīvābhramaṇḍalam |
cittacitrakṛtaścitre saṃsthitāścitraputrikāḥ || 15 ||

As the autumnal sky, though it appears bright and clear to the naked eye, has yet the flimsy clouds flying over it, so the picture drawn over the plane of the inane mind, presents the figures of our fancied objects in it.
