After a long time, O king, the illustrious Rishi one day saw Lopamudra, blazing in ascetic splendour, coming after a bath in her season. Being pleased with her service, with her purity, with her self-control, with her grace and beauty, he summoned her for the purpose of living with her.
ततो बहुतिथे काले लोपामुद्रां विशाम्पते। तपसा द्योतितां स्नातां ददर्श भगवानृषिः॥ स तस्याः परिचारेण शौचेन च दमेन च। श्रिया रूपेण च प्रीतो मैथुनायाजुहाव ताम्॥
