Verse 7.137.8

तत्रस्थो दूरविक्षिप्तं तयैवाहृतवानहम् ।
चेतः स्वहृदयं सायं रुचेव रविरातपम् ॥ ८ ॥

tatrastho dūravikṣiptaṃ tayaivāhṛtavānaham |
cetaḥ svahṛdayaṃ sāyaṃ ruceva ravirātapam || 8 ||

Sitting in this manner, I stretched my thought all about and afar;and then retracted them, into the recess of my mind; as the rising sun stretches out his beams in the morning, and afterwards draws them back into its disc in the evening.
