Verse 7.147.10

अभित्तिकमरङ्गं च विचित्रं चित्रमम्बरे ।
शम्बरेशस्य सर्वस्वमविद्याख्यस्य कस्यचित् ॥ १० ॥

abhittikamaraṅgaṃ ca vicitraṃ citramambare |
śambareśasya sarvasvamavidyākhyasya kasyacit || 10 ||

The edifice of the world appears to be built without its foundation, and is unsupported by walls; and the sky appearing so bright and variegated, is without any colour or taint of its own; it is the magical power of the great magician, that has displayed these wonders and spread a curtain of delusion over the ignorant and infatuated world.
