कृष्णसर्पवदने सहविष्कं दग्धमञ्जननिःसृतधूमम् । चूर्णितं नलदपत्रविमिश्रं भिन्नतारमपि रक्षति चक्षुः ॥ ३८ ॥

The mouth of a black cobra (killed just then) is filled with ghee (the head given a coating of cow dung and), burnt in such a way that smoke does not come out of it. It is then taken out, mixed with leaves of Nardostachys jatamamsi powdered nicely and used as collyrium. It protects the eye though the tara (pupil) is torn.
