भाषितं रुचिरं श्रुत्वा पुष्पकस्य नराधिपः। अभिवाद्य महर्षीन्स विमानं सोध्यरोहत॥ धनुर्गृहीत्वा तूणी च खङ्गं च रुचिरप्रभम्। निक्षिप्य नगरे चैतौ सौमित्रिभरतावुभौ ॥
bhāṣitaṃ ruciraṃ śrutvā puṣpakasya narādhipaḥ| abhivādya maharṣīnsa vimānaṃ sodhyarohata|| dhanurgṛhītvā tūṇī ca khaṅgaṃ ca ruciraprabham| nikṣipya nagare caitau saumitribharatāvubhau ||
