Having come near the middle of the Kalindi, Sītā prayed to her, saying, 'Hail to you, O goddess! I cross you. If my husband can successfully perform his vow, I will worship you with a thousand cows and an hundred vessels of wine, hail to you, upon Rāma's return to the city ruled by Ikşvāki
कालिन्दीमध्यमायाता सीता त्वेनामवन्दत। स्वस्ति देवि तरामि त्वां पारयेन्मे पतिव्रतम्॥ यक्ष्ये त्वां गोसहस्रेण सुराघटशतेन च। स्वस्ति प्रत्यागते रामे पुरीमिक्ष्वाकुपालिताम्॥
