ओंकारार्धोऽर्धमात्रान्तः शान्तनिःशेषमानसः ।
लिपिकर्मार्पिताकार आसीदाशान्तवेदनः ॥ २ ॥

oṃkārārdho'rdhamātrāntaḥ śāntaniḥśeṣamānasaḥ |
lipikarmārpitākāra āsīdāśāntavedanaḥ || 2 ||

He fixed his mind on the pause santa, which is placed at the end of half syllable m—the final letter of the holy mantra of omkara; and sat sedate with his steady attention (on the Divine), as an unmoved picture in painting.
