**चौ०** 
> हरषि मुनीस कहेउ मृदु बानी। आनहु सकल सुतीरथ पानी॥  
> औषध मूल फूल फल पाना। कहे नाम गनि मंगल नाना॥१॥

**चौ०** 
> चामर चरम बसन बहु भाँती। रोम पाट पट अगनित जाती॥  
> मनिगन मंगल बस्तु अनेका। जो जग जोगु भूप अभिषेका॥२॥

**चौ०** 
> बेद बिदित कहि सकल बिधाना। कहेउ रचहु पुर बिबिध बिताना॥  
> सफल रसाल पूगफल केरा। रोपहु बीथिन्ह पुर चहुँ फेरा॥३॥

**चौ०** 
> रचहु मंजु मनि चौकें चारू। कहहु बनावन बेगि बजारू॥  
> पूजहु गनपति गुर कुलदेवा। सब बिधि करहु भूमिसुर सेवा॥४॥

Meaning: The great sage Vasiṣṭha gladly said in soft accents, “Fetch water from all principal sacred places.” And then he enumerated by name a number of auspicious objects such as herbs, roots, flowers, fruits, leaves, (1)

chowries, deerskins, and draperies of various kinds including countless varieties of woollen and silken textiles, jewels and numerous other articles of good omen which were considered useful in the world for the coronation of a king. (2)

Detailing all the procedures laid down in the Vedas, he said, “Erect canopies of all sorts in the city and transplant in the streets on all sides trees of mango, arecanut and plantain with fruits. (3)

“Paint beautiful designs on the floors filling them with costly jewels and tell the people to decorate the bazars promptly. Worship Lord Gaṇeśa and your preceptor as well as the tutelary deity and render service in every form to the Brāhmaṇas, the very gods on earth. (4)

**दो०** 
> ध्वज पताक तोरन कलस सजहु तुरग रथ नाग।  
> सिर धरि मुनिबर बचन सबु निज निज काजहिं लाग॥६॥

Meaning: “Get ready flags and banners, festal arches and vases as well as horses, chariots and elephants.” Bowing to these orders of the great sage Vasiṣṭha, all concerned applied themselves to their assigned task. (6)
