सोऽन्वियेष गजं यत्नाद्गुल्मकान्तरितं वने ।
पयोदपिण्डितं भोक्तुं राहुरिन्दुमिवाम्बरे ॥ २० ॥

so'nviyeṣa gajaṃ yatnādgulmakāntaritaṃ vane |
payodapiṇḍitaṃ bhoktuṃ rāhurindumivāmbare || 20 ||

He sought about and beat the forest, to find out the hiding elephant amidst the thickets; as the ascending node of Rahu rises in the sky, to lay hold on the moon covered under the clouds.
