durgandhā bhāsurā devi vahate rasarūpiṇī | tasyā rasena saṃyuktaṃ pṛthagvarṇaṃ hi karburam
হে দেবী, তাত ৰসৰূপিণী এক দীপ্ত ধাৰা বয়, কেতিয়াবা দুৰ্গন্ধযুক্তো হয়। সেই ৰসৰ সৈতে যুক্ত হ’লে সেয়া কৰ্বুৰ—অর্থাৎ পৃথক পৃথক বৰ্ণে চিত্ৰিত—হয়।
Skanda (deduced from Prabhāsakṣetramāhātmya narrative style)

Type: kund
Listener: Devī
Scene: A shining but slightly noxious stream of essence flows near the kuṇḍa; where it mixes, the ground/water becomes mottled with distinct colors, like mineral marbling under sunlight.
