अब्धिर्नृत्यति पर्वते गिरिरपि प्रोच्चैर्नभःकोटरे व्योमापीन्दुदिवाकरैः क्व चलितं भूमेरधस्ताद्गतम् ।
सद्वीपाचलपत्तनो वनगणः प्रोत्कीर्णपुष्पो दिवि व्यालोलं जगदम्बुधाविव तृणं दिक्चक्रके भ्राम्यति ॥ ७६ ॥

abdhirnṛtyati parvate girirapi proccairnabhaḥkoṭare vyomāpīndudivākaraiḥ kva calitaṃ bhūmeradhastādgatam |
sadvīpācalapattano vanagaṇaḥ protkīrṇapuṣpo divi vyālolaṃ jagadambudhāviva tṛṇaṃ dikcakrake bhrāmyati || 76 ||

So the wandering worlds are dancing about in the great circle of her spacious body, as if they were mere straws in the vast ocean of creation. Thus the sea rolls on the mountain, and the high hills pierces the hollow of the heaven above. This heaven also with its sun and moon, are turning below the earth; and the earth with all its islands and mountains, cities, forests and flowery gardens; is dancing in heaven round about the sun.
