Chronologically it precedes the Ramayana.

Verse 7.145.4

जगप्सप्रतिघं नास्ति किंचिदेव कदाचन ।
जीवेक्षणानामक्षाणां दृष्टिरप्रतिघा जगत् ॥ ४ ॥

jagapsapratighaṃ nāsti kiṃcideva kadācana |
jīvekṣaṇānāmakṣāṇāṃ dṛṣṭirapratighā jagat || 4 ||

In this manner the world which is nothing in reality, being once thought upon as something however small in its idea, dilates itself to an enormous size in the mind, which cast at last its reflection on the external organs of sense also, and make it appear so big and vast to sight.
