अन्तःशून्यमपि व्योम सर्वस्योन्नतिकारणम् ॥ १८ ॥

akiṃcano'pi kāryāṇi sādhayatyātatāśayaḥ |
antaḥśūnyamapi vyoma sarvasyonnatikāraṇam || 18 ||

As the helpless man is enabled to achieve his purposes, by means of his patient perseverance; so the inane sky has risen above all, by means of its universal diffusion.
