ततः प्राग्ज्योतिषं गत्वा पुनरेव व्यदृश्यत । सौभं कामगमं वीर मोहयन्मम चक्षुषी,तदनन्तर इच्छानुसार चलनेवाला सौभविमान प्राग्ज्योतिषपुरके निकट जाकर मेरे नेत्रोंको भ्रममें डालता हुआ फिर दिखायी दिया
Transliteration
tataḥ prāgjyotiṣaṁ gatvā punar eva vyadṛśyata | saubhaṁ kāmagamaṁ vīra mohayan mama cakṣuṣī ||
Translation
Then, having gone toward Prāgjyotiṣa, that Saubha—an aerial craft able to move at will—again came into view. O hero, it bewildered my very eyes, as though it were playing tricks upon perception, revealing how deceptive power can cloud even direct sight.
