(Parāparā) shines with the light of the rising sun and is (red) like a pomegranate flower. She wears red clothes and is adorned with dreadlocks and the moon. Three wrinkles and a line of hair [i.e., romarājī-vibhūṣitā] (adorn the middle of her body). She is replete with all fine characteristics and has fat upraised breasts.
