Shloka 2
पराशरस्य राक्षससत्रनिवृत्तिः | Paraśara’s Rakṣasa-Satra and Its Cessation
तस्मिन् निपतिते भूमावथ सा चारुहासिनी । पुन: पीनायतश्रोणी दर्शयामास तं नूपम्,जब वे इस प्रकार मूर्च्छित होकर पृथ्वीपर गिर पड़े, तब स्थूल एवं विशाल श्रोणीप्रदेशवाली तपतीने मन्द-मन्द मुसकराते हुए अपनेको राजा संवरणके सामने प्रकट कर दिया
tasmin nipatite bhūmāv atha sā cāru-hāsinī | punaḥ pīnāyata-śroṇī darśayāmāsa taṃ nṛpam ||
فلما سقط مغشيًّا عليه على الأرض، عادت هي—مبتسمة ابتسامة رقيقة—فأظهرت نفسها أمام الملك، ذات وركين ممتلئين عريضين.

King Saṃvaraṇa has collapsed to the ground (overcome/entranced). Tapatī, smiling softly, appears again and makes herself visible before him, continuing the unfolding courtship episode narrated by the Gandharva.
