किमेतद्भवतां दृष्टं हृदये क्व महार्णवः ।
जठरे कल्पवातः किं हृदि कल्पानलः कथम् ॥ ४ ॥

kimetadbhavatāṃ dṛṣṭaṃ hṛdaye kva mahārṇavaḥ |
jaṭhare kalpavātaḥ kiṃ hṛdi kalpānalaḥ katham || 4 ||

How came you to see the ocean in the breast, which never exists therein, and how did you see the conflagration in the heart and the tornado in the bowels, which are never to be found in any of those places.
