मुक्ताफलप्रतिफलप्रतिमार्करश्मिरागोदरास्वजिरभूमिषु पुष्पकौघम् ।
नासादयत्यभिनवातपबिम्बबुद्ध्या भ्रान्ते भ्रमत्यलिकुले नभसीव मेघे ॥ २३ ॥

The earth was sown with orient pearls by the dawning sun-beams, and the ground was strewn over with flowers glistening at the sun-light. The lightsome locusts did not light upon them, thinking them to be sparks of fire, but kept hovering in the midway sky as a body of dark and moving cloud.
