‘(The poet tries to prove that the lotus resembles the shrine of Paśupati. As the latter is of gold, so the centre also of the lotus is golden, and as the temple is surrounded by snowy mountains, so the petals of the lotus are made of silver).’—(Inscrip. from Nepal, no. 15, of Yaya-deva, v. 25, *Ind. Ant.*, Vol. IX, pp. 179, 182).
