पल्लवे च यथा पुष्पं पुष्पकोशे फलं यथा ।
यतः स कल्पनारूपो देहोऽस्ति मनसोऽन्तरे ॥ ८ ॥

pallave ca yathā puṣpaṃ puṣpakośe phalaṃ yathā |
yataḥ sa kalpanārūpo deho'sti manaso'ntare || 8 ||

And as the flower is contained in the branch, and the fruit within its flowers; so this creation of the imagination, is contained in the receptacle of the mind.
