Kalidasa

Bhartrihari. The Century of Life

On Pride and Heroism

The Motion of Giants

On his wide hood as on a painted shield

Bears up the rangèd worlds, Infinite, the Snake;

Him in the giant midmost of his back

The eternal Tortoise brooks, whom the great field

Of vague and travelling waters ceaselessly

Encompass with the proud unfathomed sea.

O easy mights and marvellous of the great,

Whose simplest action is yet vast with fate!
