अपि कालं अपेक्ष्य च पात्रं शुभकृद्विदधात्यनुरूपम् । न मधौ बहु कं कुडवे वा विसृजत्यपि मेघवितानः ॥ १०४-४६ ॥

Though a planet (graha) might be benefic to a person, it produces benefic effects only according to the nature of the Daśā periods and the rank of the person in life, just in the same way as the quantity of rain falling into a small cup cannot but be small though the rain be excessive.
