सौम्यः प्रसन्नमधुरो रसवान्महात्मा हृद्यः सरोवर इवान्तरखण्डशैत्यः ।
हृत्पुण्डरीककुहरं व्यवहारवेत्ता गाम्भीर्यमच्छमजहात्प्रकटाशयश्रीः ॥ ३४ ॥

saumyaḥ prasannamadhuro rasavānmahātmā hṛdyaḥ sarovara ivāntarakhaṇḍaśaityaḥ |
hṛtpuṇḍarīkakuharaṃ vyavahāravettā gāmbhīryamacchamajahātprakaṭāśayaśrīḥ || 34 ||

His speech was clear and graceful, sweet and pleasing, and his heart was as tender as the cooling lake, and as soft as the lotus-flower; he was acquainted with all usages and customs and the depth and profoundness of his knowledge, ever the serenity of his appearance.
