Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 10 - Chapter 1 - Verse 6
Sanskrit:
अगाधतोयह्रदिनीतटोर्मिभि-र्द्रवत्पुरीष्या: पुलिनै: समन्तत: ।न यत्र चण्डांशुकरा विषोल्बणाभुवो रसं शाद्वलितं च गृह्णते ॥ ६ ॥
ITRANS:
agādha-toya-hradinī-taṭormibhirdravat-purīṣyāḥ pulinaiḥ samantataḥna yatra caṇḍāṁśu-karā viṣolbaṇābhuvo rasaṁ śādvalitaṁ ca gṛhṇate
Translation:
With their flowing waves the deep rivers drenched their banks, making them damp and muddy. Thus the rays of the sun, which were as fierce as poison, could not evaporate the earth’s sap or parch its green grass.
