तदा भूमेर्गन्धगुणं ग्रसन्त्याप उदप्लवे। ग्रस्तगन्धा तु पृथिवी प्रलयत्वाय कल्पते॥ १४

हिन्दी भावार्थ

इस प्रकार जब जल-प्रलय हो जाता है, तब जल पृथ्वीके विशेष गुण गन्धको ग्रस लेता है—अपनेमें लीन कर लेता है। गन्ध गुणके जलमें लीन हो जानेपर पृथ्वीका प्रलय हो जाता है, वह जलमें घुल-मिलकर जलरूप बन जाती है॥ १४॥
