ततो वै यजमानस्य पावकादतुलप्रभम्। प्रादुर्भूतं महद् भूतं महावीर्य महाबलम्॥ कृष्णं रक्ताम्बरधरं रक्तास्यं दुन्दुभिस्वनम्। स्निग्धहर्यक्षतनुजश्मश्रुप्रवरमूर्धजम्॥ शुभलक्षणसम्पन्नं दिव्याभरणभूषितम्। शैलशृङ्गसमुत्सेधं दृप्तशार्दूलविक्रमम्॥ दिवाकरसमाकारं दीप्तानलशिखोपमम्। तप्तजाम्बूनदमयों राजतान्तपरिच्छदाम्॥ दिव्यपायससम्पूर्णां पात्री पत्नीमिव प्रियाम्। प्रगृह्य विपुलां दोभ्यां स्वयं मायामयीमिव ॥
