with the digits of the moon; which due to the extreme fragrance of its scented waters (seems) as if created by the perfume of the Bakula flowers, made with powder of the Kakkola fruits, whose surrounding area is as if made by the clove-flowers, and whose streams are as of the juice of Elāphala; which exhibits, as it were, the watery creation of the Creator by thousands of streams flowing everywhere; which is unattainable by the rays of the sun; which admits not misery; which cannot be overpowered by the antidotes of the separated; which cannot be looked at by the fire of separation of the separated lady-lovers; which is the place for cooling even cold; the habitation of happiness even of happiness; and charm even of charm; which seems to sprinkle in the directions, camphor powder due to the spraying of the drops of thousands of streams with its waves rising, striking and breaking in all directions, which seems to strew flakes of snow like moonlight, because of the oozing of the mechanical water dolls made of moonstone; which pours forth streams of sandal paste as it were, as the water mixed with the rays of the white jewels; which has hundreds of flowing streams looking like the fibres of the lotus-stalks broken due to the weight of the full bloomed lotuses; which though made of various precious stones looks as if made of one jewel because the pillars, the tops of the pillars and the human figures carved on the tops of the pillars were mutually well-laid and their joints were firmly fixed; which looks as if it has come out of the earth; and which is artificial yet looks natural.
