लिङ्गस्योर्ध्वं रटत्काक आत्मानं दर्शयत्ययम् ।
सर्वाधःपातकोत्तुङ्गगतं पश्यत मामिति ॥ ६२ ॥

liṅgasyordhvaṃ raṭatkāka ātmānaṃ darśayatyayam |
sarvādhaḥpātakottuṅgagataṃ paśyata māmiti || 62 ||

Looking at the crow flying there upon the offerings, left on that lingam or phallus of Siva on yonder bank; and there appearing to sight to tell its tale to people, saying; “Behold me on high, with all my degrading sin”
