रसभावविकाराढ्यं नृत्यन्त्यभिनयैर्नवैः ।
परमाणुप्रति प्रायः खे स्फुरन्त्यम्बरात्मिकाः ॥ ६ ॥

rasabhāvavikārāḍhyaṃ nṛtyantyabhinayairnavaiḥ |
paramāṇuprati prāyaḥ khe sphurantyambarātmikāḥ || 6 ||

All these aerial bodies which are countless as the flying atoms, are continually in the act of dancing and playing their parts in the open arena of Brahma; as the players exhibit their various passions and emotions and gestures and gesticulations in a theatre.
