सप्ताब्धयोऽग्रसुतयः पातालं मूलकोटरम् ।
युगानि घुणवृन्दानि पर्वाणि गुणपङ्क्तयः ॥ १५ ॥

saptābdhayo'grasutayaḥ pātālaṃ mūlakoṭaram |
yugāni ghuṇavṛndāni parvāṇi guṇapaṅktayaḥ || 15 ||

The seven oceans are the ditches of water, dug at the foot and root of this tree; and the infernal region is the deep pit underlying the root of this tree; the yugas and cycles of periods are its knots and joints, and the rotation of time over it, is as the circle of worms sucking up its juice for evermore.
