Verse 7.71.5

यावत्संकल्पनं तस्य विरसीभवति क्षणात् ।
तथैवाशु तथैवोर्व्याः साद्रिद्वीपपयोनिधेः ॥ ५ ॥

yāvatsaṃkalpanaṃ tasya virasībhavati kṣaṇāt |
tathaivāśu tathaivorvyāḥ sādridvīpapayonidheḥ || 5 ||

I saw that as the desires of Brahma were drying up in himself, so I found all nature to be fading away, with the contraction of the earth and ocean, together with the diminution of their hills and islands.
