श्रीपराशरभट्टार्यः श्रीरङ्गेशपुरोहितः । श्रीवत्साङ्ग(क)सुतः श्रीमान् श्रेयसे मेऽस्तु भूयसे । प्रभूयोदन्वदुत्तीर्णा प्रपद्येऽहं वसुन्धराम् । महावराहदंष्ट्राग्रमल्लीकोशमधुव्रताम् ॥ नमस्तस्मै वराहाय लीलयोद्धरते महीम् । खुरमध्यगतो यस्य मेरुः कणकणायते ॥
श्रीवराहो(ह उ) वाच-- जागरे तु विशालाक्षि जानतो वाप्यजानतः । यो मे प्रगायते गेयं मम भक्त्या व्यवस्थितः ॥
