उपनिन्न्युस्तथा राज्ञे दर्भानाप: फलानि च | तच्च सर्व स राजेन्द्र: प्रतिजग्राह वीर्यवान्,वे राजाके पास कुश, जल और फल लेकर गये। परम पराक्रमी महाराज परीक्षित्ने उनकी दी हुई वे सब वस्तुएँ ग्रहण कर लीं
upaninnyus tathā rājñe darbhān āpaḥ phalāni ca | tac ca sarvaṃ sa rājendraḥ pratijagrāha vīryavān ||
随后他们将俱舍草（kuśa）、清水与果品奉至王前。那位雄健的君王——噢，诸王之最——尽皆受纳其所献之物。
