कान्तागीतगिरां राम तरुणो भाजनं यथा ।
प्रश्नानामुत्तमोक्तीनां पुण्यकृद्भाजनं तथा ॥ १० ॥

kāntāgītagirāṃ rāma taruṇo bhājanaṃ yathā |
praśnānāmuttamoktīnāṃ puṇyakṛdbhājanaṃ tathā || 10 ||

As it is the adult youth only, who can appreciate the beauty of a love-song; so it is the holy man only, who can grasp the sense of my sayings on these abstruse subjects.
