Verse 48.13
सो शीतलं विमलम् अप्रतिमं प्रसन्नं वारि प्रवृष्य मधुरं अभिगर्जमानो ।
वर्षेति सागरधरो शयने निदाघं एषो पि अन्तःसुखितो स सहांपतीको ॥ १३ ॥
so śītalaṃ vimalam apratimaṃ prasannaṃ vāri pravṛṣya madhuraṃ abhigarjamāno |
varṣeti sāgaradharo śayane nidāghaṃ eṣo pi antaḥsukhito sa sahāṃpatīko || 13 ||
“The cloud, holding an ocean of water, with a soft rumbling sound, shedding rain that was cool and incomparably pure and clear, rained down though it was the summer season. And Sahampatika also was rendered inwardly glad. (13)
