स्वदृष्टिक्षयसंपत्तावक्ष्णोरेवोदितं तमः ।

svadṛṣṭikṣayasaṃpattāvakṣṇorevoditaṃ tamaḥ |
vastusvabhāvāttadvyomnaḥ kārṣṇyamityavalokyate || 39 ||

As one after losing his eyesight, beholds but darkness only all about him; so the want of the objects of sight in the womb of vacuity, gives the sky the appearance of a darksome scene.
