आश्चर्यमात्रमुचितं किमिदं निमेषादित्यक्षि वै जगति यावदहं त्यजामि ।
खात्तावदद्रिमतुलं पुरुषाकृतिं द्रागावर्तवृत्तिभिरपश्यमहं पतन्तम् ॥ ४ ॥

āścaryamātramucitaṃ kimidaṃ nimeṣādityakṣi vai jagati yāvadahaṃ tyajāmi |
khāttāvadadrimatulaṃ puruṣākṛtiṃ drāgāvartavṛttibhirapaśyamahaṃ patantam || 4 ||

I saw astonished at the sight, and cast my eyes on all sides to see what it was; I came to find the mountainous form of a man, falling fast from the sky; and hurling down like a whirlpool upon the earth.
