वयो न ये श्रेणीः पप्तुरोजसान्तान्दिवो बृहतः सानुनस्परि । अश्वास एषामुभये यथा विदुः प्र पर्वतस्य नभनूँरचुच्यवुः ॥

শ্রেণিবদ্ধ উড়ন্ত পাখির মতো তারা নিজেদের ওজসে মহৎ দিবের শিখর-প্রান্তগুলির চারদিকে বেগে ছুটে গেছে। তাদের অশ্বদ্বয় উভয় পথই জানে—যেমন তারা জানে; পর্বত থেকে তারা মেঘপুঞ্জকে সামনের দিকে আলগা করে নিক্ষেপ করেছে।
