मदभ्रंशपुरस्पन्दैर्मुधा त्ववनिकम्पनैः ।
बालयक्षाद्यनुभवैः खकेशोण्ड्रकदर्शनैः ॥ १२ ॥

madabhraṃśapuraspandairmudhā tvavanikampanaiḥ |
bālayakṣādyanubhavaiḥ khakeśoṇḍrakadarśanaiḥ || 12 ||

It is no earthquake, if our tottering foot steps should shake and slip in our drunkenness; nor can we view a ghost in a shadow as boys do, nor see the braids of hair hanging down from the clouds in heaven.
