Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 14
सोऽपि तेनैव रूपेण तस्य संदर्शनं गतः । स्वप्नांऽते भूमिपालस्य तद्वच्चोक्त्वा दिवं गतः
so'pi tenaiva rūpeṇa tasya saṃdarśanaṃ gataḥ | svapnāṃ'te bhūmipālasya tadvaccoktvā divaṃ gataḥ
সিও সেই একে ৰূপে ভূমিপালৰ স্বপ্নৰ অন্তত দেখা দিলে; আৰু আগৰ দৰে একেই বাক্য ক’লে, তাৰ পাছত স্বৰ্গলৈ গ’ল।
