विष्णुमाह द्विजो वाक्यमम्भोदमिव चातकः ॥ ४३ ॥

dattvārdhyaṃ kīrṇakusumaḥ praṇamyāśu pradakṣiṇaiḥ |
viṣṇumāha dvijo vākyamambhodamiva cātakaḥ || 43 ||

After Gadhi had made his offering of flowers, with due obeisance and turning round the deity;he addressed him with his words, sounding as sweet as notes of the chataka to the blooming lotus.
