सुप्तोऽस्मीति दृढं भावं बुद्धवांश्चेतनोऽपि सन् ।
नैद्रमेवैत्यलं जाड्यं लसच्चेतति किंचन ॥ ५२ ॥

supto'smīti dṛḍhaṃ bhāvaṃ buddhavāṃścetano'pi san |
naidramevaityalaṃ jāḍyaṃ lasaccetati kiṃcana || 52 ||

I thought myself as asleep, notwithstanding my power of intellection (which lay dormant in me); and being thus overtaken by the conception of my sleepy insensibility, how could I cogitate of anything otherwise; which is of a transcendental nature.
