Bhāgīratha’s Tapas and the Petition to Gaṅgā (गङ्गावतरण-प्रसङ्गः)
एकैकशस्तत: कृत्वा बीजं बीज॑ नराधिप: । घृतपूर्णेषु कुम्भेषु तान् भागान् विदधे ततः,नरेशने एक-एक बीजको अलग करके उन सबको घीसे भरे हुए घड़ोंमें रखा
ekaikaśas tataḥ kṛtvā bījaṁ bījam narādhipaḥ | ghṛtapūrṇeṣu kumbheṣu tān bhāgān vidadhe tataḥ ||
Rồi nhà vua tách từng hạt giống một, phân chia cẩn trọng, và đặt các phần ấy vào những chum đầy bơ tinh luyện (ghee).
