Skanda Purana — Kashi Khanda, Shloka 82
अंगुल्यश्च सुपर्वाणो दीर्घावृत्ताः क्रमात्कृशाः । चिपिटाःस्थपुटा रूक्षाः पृष्ठरोमयुजोऽशुभाः
aṃgulyaśca suparvāṇo dīrghāvṛttāḥ kramātkṛśāḥ | cipiṭāḥsthapuṭā rūkṣāḥ pṛṣṭharomayujo'śubhāḥ
ម្រាមដៃដែលមានសន្លាក់ស្អាត លែងវែងមូល ហើយស្តើងចុះតាមលំដាប់ គឺជាមង្គល។ តែម្រាមដៃដែលសំប៉ែត ក្រាស់ជាប់ រឹងរូស ហើយមានរោមលើខ្នងម្រាម គឺអមង្គល។
