Sinabi ni Vaiśampāyana: Pagkaraan, ang tahanang-hari ay pinaligiran at pinagniningning—nagkalat ang mababangong pulbos, at ito’y saganang pinalamutian ng sari-saring bulaklak, kaaya-ayang mga palamuting nakasabit, at mga kuwintas ng bulaklak, na lumilikha ng himig ng pagpapala at marangal na kaayusan ng palasyo.
