तारायणो
They are really the poets, whose languiga captures such ideas (attha) from the vast world (puhai -paritthiya) as are beyond the keo of ordinary poets, and which is thus comparable to the miraculous torch of a Master of Magic Charms, which halts and establishes itself on (the spots of) underground (puhai-paritthiya) riches (attha), invisible to the ordinary people.
(Index Verse 4) दाढाओ गयवइणो निज्जिय-कइ-कुंजराउ रेहति । 'सज्जावेसालोयण'-'कव्व-विसुद्धि' ति गाहाओ ॥ १८
'सद्य आवेशालोकनादिः, 'कान्यविशुद्विरिति च गाथे । गजपते. निर्जितकविकुञ्जरे दंष्ट्रे राजेते इति ॥
Gajapati's (i. e. Bappabhatti's) (two) Gathās, viz. (those with the key expressions) sajjāvesālo yana and kavva-visuddhi, shine forth like the (two) iusks of a lord of elephants which have conquered other elephants in the form of other illustrious poets. (18)

सद्य आवेशस्यालोकनं तत्र महाकुतूहलं तेनानटितस्तरलीकृतो यदि त्व तदानीं है 'दुक्कह' अश्रद्धालो, खलस्य किमपि परव्यसनं कथय । अयमत्रार्थ: । खलो हि परव्यसनमाकर्पा परितोषरभसेन सद्य आविष्ट इव पुरुषो गात्रकम्पभ्रत्क्षेपकरचलननयनस्तम्भादिविकारभाग भवतीति ॥
If you are burning with intense curiosity to witness a fellow becoming suddenly possessed, then O skeptic, you tell to the wicked about the troubles of somebody. (19)
The good and the wicked contrasted [7] सुयणो दोसे वि गुणीकरेइ इयरो गुणे वि दूसेइ ।
कव्व-विसुद्धि-निमित्तं न्याणिमो के समुल्लीमो ॥ २०
