गत्वा तु पृथिवीं सर्वमदृष्टा तं महबलाः | योजनायामविस्तारमेकैको धरणीतलम् | बिभिदुः पुरुषव्याघ्र वज्रस्पर्शसमैर्भुजैः ||१-३९-१८

sanskrit

But, oh ! tigerly-man Rama, on going round the earth in its entirety those great-mighty princes did not find that horse, then as said by their father they mapped the earth to a unit of one square yojana for each of them, and each of them hollowed out each and every area on the surface of earth with their arms that have the touch of the diamonds. [1-39-18]
