Verse 7.66.6

वान्ति वाता वहन्त्यापो भान्ति चाभान्ति खे सुराः ।
तिष्ठन्त्यगाः समुद्यन्ति ग्रहा यान्ति महीं नृपाः ॥ ६ ॥

vānti vātā vahantyāpo bhānti cābhānti khe surāḥ |
tiṣṭhantyagāḥ samudyanti grahā yānti mahīṃ nṛpāḥ || 6 ||

It is in the cavity of the mundane stone, that the waters are gliding below, as the winds are flying above; here the celestials are moving and roving in the air, and the earth and the planetary bodies, revolving with their unmoving mountains and other immovables.
