haṃsakāraṇḍavākīrṇasaraḥ phullāmbujaṃ kvacit |
kvacinmarusthalasthūlastambhanārjunamārutam || 11 ||

I saw clear and purling lakes, frequented by cranes and herons, and smiling with blooming lotuses in them; and I saw likewise barren deserts, with heaps and piles of grey dust, collected together by the blowing breezes.
