tadastatandrair aniśaṃ sarasvatī śramād upāsyā khalu kīrtim īpsubhiḥ &
kṛśe kavitve 'pi janāḥ kṛtaśramā vidagdhagoṣṭhīṣu vihartum īśate //
Therefore, with drowsiness cast off, Sarasvatī must indeed be unremittingly worshiped with toil by those desiring fame;
even if poetic power is slender, people who have made the effort are able to disport themselves in the assemblies of the cultured.
1.105.p1
ity ācāryadaṇḍinaḥ kṛtau kāvyādarśe mārgavibhāgo nāma prathamaḥ paricchedaḥ
Thus ends the first chapter, named 'The Distinction of Poetic Dictation', in the Mirror of Poetry composed by Ācārya Daṇḍin.
