Parīkṣit-janma-saṃkaṭa and Kuntī’s petition to Vāsudeva (परिक्षिज्जन्मसंकटं कुन्त्याः प्रार्थना च)
सुमनोभिश्न चित्राभिलजिरुच्चावचैरपि | जनेश्वर! उन्होंने मन्त्रपूत पुष्प लेकर मिठाई, खीर, फलके गूदे, विचित्र पुष्प, लावा (खील) तथा अन्य नाना प्रकारकी वस्तुओंद्वारा उपहार समर्पित किया
Vaiśampāyana uvāca: sumanobhiś ca citrābhir lajair uccāvacair api | janeśvara, te mantra-pūtaiḥ puṣpair modakaiḥ pāyasena phala-gūḍaiḥ citra-puṣpaiḥ lāvābhiś ca tathānyair nānā-vidhair dravyair upahāram upājahruḥ ||
毗舍摩耶那说道：“民之主啊，他们奉上供品——以真言净化之花、甘饴与乳粥（吉罗，kṣīra）、果肉、缤纷异彩之花、炒谷（干粮），以及种种其他物品。”此景彰显合乎法（达摩）的敬奉之道：礼物先行净化，以恭敬奉献，旨在护持吉祥的仪式秩序，而非为个人炫示。

The verse highlights dharmic offering: gifts are made with purity (mantra-sanctified), variety, and reverence, supporting sacred order and respectful relations between subjects and ruler/ritual authority.
People bring and present a range of auspicious items—sanctified flowers, sweets, rice-pudding, fruit preparations, parched grains, and other goods—as formal offerings to the addressed king, within a ritual-ceremonial setting.
