मरुदेशे यच्चिह्नं न जाङ्गले तैर्जलं विनिर्देश्यम् । जम्बूवेतस पूर्वैर् ये पुरुषास्ते मरौ द्विगुणाः ॥ ५४-८६ ॥

It would be wrong to proceed to judge of undercurrents in dry but fertile lands from the several indications given for arid lands. As regards the Jambū and the Vetasā, the depths of undercurrents given for these trees shall be doubled if the trees are seen to grow in arid lands.
