प्रत्यक्षवदभावोऽपि प्रमैव रघुनन्दन ।
अग्न्यभावोऽपि शीतस्य प्रमाणं सर्वजन्तुषु ॥ ८९ ॥

agnyabhāvo'pi śītasya pramāṇaṃ sarvajantuṣu || 89 ||

Know Rama, that an unknown and absent cause is as evident as any present and palpable cause, which is perceptible to the senses; for who can deny the fact, that it is the absence of fire that produces the cold, and which is quite evident to every living body.
