v7.c47.5272

‘Of him whose fame is like the circle of waves of the milky ocean, need we say more than that here at Kāśī there is a temple (erected by him), Karṇa-meru (so lofty), that the wind of the flags which wave from its golden spires lessens the fatigue of the damsels of heaven, when playing in the sky.’—(Khairha plates of Yasahkarnadeva, v. 13, *Ep. Ind.*, Vol. III, pp. 211, 212, 216.)
