कक्षगतेनैव held on her armpit, मड्डुकेन with Madduka drum, इव like प्रसुप्ता sleeping, अन्याः other, असितेक्षणा darkeyed, वत्सला lovingly, बालपुत्रा held a baby, भामिनीव a beautiful lady, भाति splendid.

A woman with dark eyes asleep with a drum placed in her armpit looked like a beautiful mother holding her loving baby (the drum was hung to her arm with a rope).
