पांसुप्रतर्दनहतां प्रकचत्तप्तसैकताम् ।
अदृष्टापारपर्यन्तां क्वचिद्राम किलाङ्किताम् ॥ ५ ॥

pāṃsupratardanahatāṃ prakacattaptasaikatām |
adṛṣṭāpāraparyantāṃ kvacidrāma kilāṅkitām || 5 ||

It was a dreary waste without its boundary on any side, filled with burning sands and obscured by grey and flying dust over it; and marked by a few scattered hamlets here and there.
