mārkaṇḍeya uvāca
prāṅmukho bhagavān ! devaḥ kūrmarūpī vyavasthitaḥ /
ākramya bhārataṃ varṣaṃ navabhedamidaṃ dvija //
Mārkaṇḍeya spoke:
With his face looking eastwards the adorable Tortoise-formed god takes bis position, when he approaches this nine-portioned country Bhārata, O brāhman. The constellations are arranged all about him in nine divisions, and the countries[2] also, O brāhman. Hear duly from me which they are.
