14.3.3

ekāmlakaṃ varāhākṣi khadyotaḥ kālaśārivā /
etenābhyaktanayano rātrau rūpāṇi paśyati //

One is the eye of a boar; another is that of a khadyota (fire-fly), or a crow, or a mina bird. Having anointed one's own eyes with the above, one can clearly see things at night.

R. Shamasastry 1915, Kautilya's Arthaśāstra
