हेमसमीपसिताम्बरकमलौत्पलपूजितौपलिप्तेषु । दधिपात्रधान्यकूटेषु च श्रियं खञ्जनः कुरुते ॥ ४५-०६ ॥
They were dressed in white clothes near gold and worshiped with lotuses and lilies. The scythe makes the curd vessels and the grain heaps look beautiful.
If it be seen near swampy places, the king would eat sumptuous meals; if on cow-dung, he will get a good supply of milk and curd; if on green turf he would get good cloths and if on chariots, he would leave his kingdom.
If it be seen seated on the tops of houses, the king would lose his wealth; if on snares, he would be imprisoned; if on impure places, he would suffer from disease; and if on the back of the sheep, he would soon obtain his desired object.
If it should be seen seated on the back of a buffalo, a camel, an ass, on the bones of animals, on cremation grounds, in the corners of houses, on pebbles or gravels, on rocks, on the walls of towns, on ash or on hair, there would be deaths, diseases and fears in the land.
If it should be seen when it is shaking off its wings, there would be misery in the land; if when in the act of drinking water from the river, there would be prosperity; there would also be prosperity if seen about sunrise; and if about sunset, there would be misery in the land.
