उषित्वा रजनीं तत्र माधव: परवीरहा । पूज्य तीर्थवरं तच्च स्पृष्टवा तोयं च लाड़ली
uṣitvā rajanīṃ tatra mādhavaḥ paravīrahā | pūjya tīrthavaraṃ tacca spṛṣṭvā toyaṃ ca lāḍalī ||
Vaiśampāyana nói: Ở lại đó một đêm, Mādhava—kẻ diệt các dũng sĩ đối phương—kính lễ bến thiêng tối thượng ấy; rồi sau khi chạm vào làn nước, Người tiếp tục lên đường.
