ययौ मासाष्टकं तस्य मग्नस्य सरसोऽम्भसि ।
वासपङ्कजसंकोचमनाग्भग्नमुखच्छवेः ॥ ९ ॥

yayau māsāṣṭakaṃ tasya magnasya saraso'mbhasi |
vāsapaṅkajasaṃkocamanāgbhagnamukhacchaveḥ || 9 ||

He thus passed full eight months, continuing with his body immerged in the water of the lake; and his face was shrivelled and wan, like the lotuses of his lake for want of sun shine.
