तां सभामभितो नित्यं पुष्पवन्तो महाद्रुमा: । आसन् नानाविधा लोला: शीतच्छाया मनोरमा:,उस सभाभवनके सब ओर अनेक प्रकारके बड़े-बड़े वृक्ष लहलहा रहे थे, जो सदा फूलोंसे भरे रहते थे। उनकी छाया बड़ी शीतल थी। वे मनोरम वृक्ष सदा हवाके झोंकोंसे हिलते रहते थे
tāṁ sabhām abhito nityaṁ puṣpavanto mahādrumāḥ | āsan nānāvidhā lolāḥ śītacchāyā manoramāḥ ||
