एवं संतिष्ठमानानां तेषां पार्थिवसत्तम । सप्त मासा व्यतिक्रांतास्ततस्तुष्टा सुरेश्वरी
evaṃ saṃtiṣṭhamānānāṃ teṣāṃ pārthivasattama | sapta māsā vyatikrāṃtāstatastuṣṭā sureśvarī
హే రాజశ్రేష్ఠా! వారు ఇలానే స్థిరంగా నిలిచియుండగా ఏడు నెలలు గడిచెను; అప్పుడు దేవేశ్వరి దేవి ప్రసన్నమయ్యెను.
Narrator (contextual Purāṇic narrator addressing a king; exact speaker not explicit in snippet)
Tirtha: Arbuda-kṣetra (contextual)
Type: kshetra
Listener: A king
Scene: A sequence-like tableau: sādhakas continuing their observance through passing months; the Devī, luminous and regal, subtly appearing or sending signs of satisfaction.

Within the Prabhāsa-khaṇḍa’s Arbuda-khaṇḍa context, the narrative belongs to the Arbuda (Mount Abu) sacred-region cycle.
