Raivataka-giri Mahotsava and the Counsel on Subhadrā’s Marriage (रैवतके महोत्सवः — सुभद्राविवाहोपायविचारः)
दक्षिणे तां करे सुभ्रूं सुन्दो जग्राह पाणिना । उपसुन्दो5पि जग्राह वामे पाणौ तिलोत्तमाम्,सुन्दने सुन्दर भौंहोंवाली तिलोत्तमाका दाहिना हाथ पकड़ा और उपसुन्दने उसका बायाँ हाथ पकड़ लिया
dakṣiṇe tāṃ kare subhrūṃ sundo jagrāha pāṇinā | upasundo 'pi jagrāha vāme pāṇau tilottamām ||
Nārada said: Sundā seized the fair-browed Tilottamā by her right hand, and Upasundā likewise grasped her left.
