  कुटीप्रावेशिकस्यादौ विधिः समुपदेक्ष्यते । नृपवैद्य द्विजातीनां साधूनां पुण्यकर्मणाम् ॥ १७ ॥
  निवासे निर्भये रास्ते प्राप्योपकरणे पुरे । दिशि पूर्वोत्तरस्यां च सुभूमौ कारयेत् कुटीम् ॥ १८ ॥
  विस्तारोत्सेधसंपन्न त्रिगर्भो सुक्ष्मलोचनाम् । घनमित्तिमृतसुखां सुस्पष्टां मनसः प्रियाम् ॥ १९ ॥
  शब्दादीनामशस्तानामगम्यां स्त्रीविवर्जिताम् । इष्टोपकरणोपेतां सज्जवैद्यौषधद्विजाम् ॥ २० ॥
  अथोदगयने शुक्ले तिथिनक्षत्रपूजिते । मुहुर्तकरणोपेते प्रशस्ते कृतवापनः ॥ २१ ॥
  धृतिस्मृतिबलं कृत्वा श्रद्दधानः समाहितः । विधूय मानसान् दोषान् मैत्रीं भूतेषु चिन्तयन् ॥ २२ ॥
  देवताः पूजयित्वाऽग्रे द्विजातश्चि प्रदक्षिणम् । देवयोब्राह्मणान् कृत्वा ततस्तां प्रविशेत् कुटीम् ॥ २३ ॥
  तस्यां संशोधनैः शुद्धः सुखी जातबलः पुनः । रसायनं प्रयुञ्जीत तत्प्रवक्ष्यामि शोधनम् ॥ २४ ॥
