" अत वक्ष्यामि देवेशि भकलोत्पत्ति कारणं

पुरा किरुथयुगेदेवि वातक्षोब उपस्तिते

चराचर विनाशाय विष्णु चिन्तापर

तपस्यायसा संथुष्ट महातिरिपुर सुन्दरी

हर्थ्राग्यं सरो दृष्ट्वा जलक्रीदपरायणा

महाबीथः रतास्यान्ते सौराष्ट्रे भकलांबिके

स्रिविद्य संबवं तेजः विज्रुम्बति इतस्थ :

चतुर्तासि भोउमयुता.........

तस्यामे वार्थ राथ्रोउतु भीतःअरतनिवासिनि

ब्रह्मास्त्र विद्या संज्ञात थ्रिअलोग्य स्तंबिनि परा "
