तत्रेन्द्रगोपकलितं शुकवक्रवर्णं संस्थानतः प्रकटपीलुसमानमात्रम् । नानाप्रकारविहितं रुधिराक्ष(ख्य) रत्नमुद्धृत्य तस्य खलु सर्वसमानमेव

tatrendragopakalitaṃ śukavakravarṇaṃ saṃsthānataḥ prakaṭapīlusamānamātram / nānāprakāravihitaṃ rudhirākṣa(khya) ratnamuddhṛtya tasya khalu sarvasamānameva

GaP 1 78.3

मध्येन्दुपाण्डुरमतीव विशुद्धवर्णं तच्चेन्द्रनीलसदृशं पटलं तुले स्यात् । सैश्वर्यभृत्यजननं कथितं तदैव पक्रञ्च तत्किल भवेत्सुरवज्रवर्णम्

madhyendupāṇḍuramatīva viśuddhavarṇaṃ taccendranīlasadṛśaṃ paṭalaṃ tule syāt / saiśvaryabhṛtyajananaṃ kathitaṃ tadaiva pakrañca tatkila bhavetsuravajravarṇam

That which is pale as the moon in the middle, of an exceedingly pure colour, and resembling sapphire, would be a 'paṭala' by weight (?); it is declared to be productive of lordship and servants; and when 'ripe' it indeed takes on the colour of the gods' thunderbolt.
