कोऽणुरत्यन्तनिःस्वादुरपि संस्वदतेऽनिशम् ।
केन संत्यजता सर्वमणुना सर्वमाश्रितम् ॥ १८ ॥

ko'ṇuratyantaniḥsvādurapi saṃsvadate'niśam |
kena saṃtyajatā sarvamaṇunā sarvamāśritam || 18 ||

Which having no flavour in it, gives savour to all things; and whose presence being withdrawn from all substances, reduces them to infinitesimal atoms.
