तमुत्थाप्य बलाद्गाढं नागेन्द्रः परिषस्वजे ।
मूर्ध्नि चैनमुपाघ्राय चिरं जीवेत्युवाच सः ॥
tam utthāpya balād gāḍhaṃ nāgendraḥ pariṣasvaje | mūrdhni cainam upāghrāya ciraṃ jīveti uvāca saḥ ||
Dengan kuat Nāgendra mengangkatnya lalu memeluknya erat; kemudian mencium (menghidu) ubun-ubunnya dan berkata: “Semoga engkau panjang umur.”
