### [18\_80](https://indike.org/pramana/in.vedanga.chanda.srutabodha~en-mt.18_80)

Construal: O fair-formed woman, \[where\] first the four \[syllables\] and the eleventh and twelfth syllables should be heavy; O lovely girl, O woman fragrant as a night-lotus, thereafter the two syllables following the twelfth, and likewise the final \[two\] syllables should be heavy; O darling, where a caesura occurs at \[intervals of\] the ages, the rasas, and the horses; O slender woman, the foremost poets proclaim that to be mandākrāntā. (18)
