परं विस्मयमापन्ना पूजयामास तं मुदा । सोऽपि राजा तया सार्द्धं भुक्त्वा भोगान्यथेप्सितान्
paraṃ vismayamāpannā pūjayāmāsa taṃ mudā | so'pi rājā tayā sārddhaṃ bhuktvā bhogānyathepsitān
وہ بڑے تعجب میں ڈوب گئی اور خوشی سے اس کی پوجا کرنے لگی۔ اور وہ راجا بھی اس کے ساتھ مل کر مطلوبہ لذتوں سے بہرہ مند ہوا۔
