4. The sage said:—O great king, no man can, even if blessed with long life like the gods, exhaustively deal, in thought or word, with the full extent of the Lord's great glories (exhibited) through the three gunas of His Maya; therefore we shall only touch on typical points and describe the globe by name, position, extent and characteristics.

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
