चन्द्रः कुमुदखण्डस्य प्रालेयमिव पल्लवे ।
हे राजर्षे नमस्तुभ्यमिति द्विजसुतोऽवदत् ॥ ६८ ॥

candraḥ kumudakhaṇḍasya prāleyamiva pallave |
he rājarṣe namastubhyamiti dvijasuto'vadat || 68 ||

The Brahman boy responded to him saying: "I greet thee in return, O thou son of a king! that lookest like a dew drop or the beaming moon-light sparkling on a lotus leaf." He then received the flowers from his hand and sat upon the leafy bed.
