शिवालयं ददर्शाग्रे अनेकाश्चर्यमंडितम् । दृष्टं सुपूजितं लिंगं नानारत्नैः पृथक्पृथक्
śivālayaṃ dadarśāgre anekāścaryamaṃḍitam | dṛṣṭaṃ supūjitaṃ liṃgaṃ nānāratnaiḥ pṛthakpṛthak
তাৰ আগত সি বহু আশ্চৰ্যৰে অলংকৃত এটা শিৱালয় দেখিলে। সি সুপূজিত লিঙ্গ দৰ্শন কৰিলে, যি নানাবিধ ৰত্নে পৃথক পৃথকভাৱে সজ্জিত আছিল।
