सति यस्मिन्प्रवर्तन्ते वित्तेहाः स्पन्दपूर्विकाः ।
कटकाङ्गदकेयूरनूपुरैरिव काञ्चनम् ॥ १ ॥

sati yasminpravartante vittehāḥ spandapūrvikāḥ |
kaṭakāṅgadakeyūranūpurairiva kāñcanam || 1 ||

It is the presence of the supreme soul in us, that the action of our hearts, directs the motions of our bodies; as it is the malleability of gold, that moulds it to the many forms of jewelleries.
