Verse 11

¹¹Two hundred thousand yojanas above him are the fixed stars, set in place by the Lord on the going of time, keeping Meru to their right, twenty-eight of them together with Abhijit. ¹²Two hundred thousand yojanas above them Usanas is seen, going in front of the sun, or behind him, or along with him, and moving as the sun moves, quickly, slowly and evenly. He is nearly always favourable to the worlds, and from his course they judge that he mostly brings rain; he quiets the planets that hold rain back. ¹³With Usanas, Budha is explained. Two hundred thousand yojanas above him Budha, the moon's son, is seen. He mostly does good; but when he goes far from the sun he threatens fear of high wind and cloud and want of rain.

¹⁴Above this Angaraka too is seen, at two hundred thousand yojanas. Unless he turns back in his course he passes through the twelve signs one by one, three fortnights to each. He is mostly an inauspicious one, and speaks of harm. ¹⁵Two hundred thousand yojanas above him goes the revered Brhaspati, who moves through a single sign in each parivatsara year, unless he is turning back. He is mostly favourable to the line of brahmins. ¹⁶Two hundred thousand yojanas above him Sanaiscara is made out. He lingers thirty months in each single sign, and so goes round all of them in as many anuvatsara years. He mostly brings unrest to everyone.

¹⁷Eleven hundred thousand yojanas above him the sages are seen, who make peace felt among the worlds and who walk with their right side turned toward the highest place of the Bhagavan Visnu.
