4.2

yāty ekato 'staśikharaṃ patir oṣadhīnām
āviṣkṛtāruṇapuraḥsara ekato 'rkaḥ /
tejodvayasya yugapadvyasanodayābhyām
loko niyamyata ivātmadaśāntareṣu //

The moon behind the western mount is sinking;
The eastern sun is heralded by dawn;
From heaven's twin lights, their fall and glory linking,
Brave lessons of submission may be drawn.
