तुषिते भवने दिव्य ओतरित्वा हिमसमो नागो भवित्व षड्विषाणो ।
राज्ञो अग्रमहिषीं प्रविष्टो कुक्षिं ततो त्रिसाहस्र प्रकम्पे लोकधातु ॥ १० ॥
tuṣite bhavane divya otaritvā himasamo nāgo bhavitva ṣaḍviṣāṇo |
rājño agramahiṣīṃ praviṣṭo kukṣiṃ tato trisāhasra prakampe lokadhātu || 10 ||
When I came down from Tushita, the abode of devas, and, in the form of a white six-tusked elephant, entered the womb of the king’s chief queen, then did the three thousand worlds quake. (10)
