अथ शान्तजपो राम स समङ्गातटे द्विजः ।
तावुवाच वचः शान्तममृतस्यन्दसुन्दरम् ॥ २९ ॥

atha śāntajapo rāma sa samaṅgātaṭe dvijaḥ |
tāvuvāca vacaḥ śāntamamṛtasyandasundaram || 29 ||

The Brahman boy, having ended the muttering of his mantras on the bank of Samanga, accosted them with a voice distilling as the sweet nectarine juice of ambrosia amrita or water of life.
