English Scholarly Translation
And golden lotuses spring in in lucent water,-how golden fishes are discovered in it along with tortoises! Have these sprung from your power; or do they owe their existence to the ascetic energy of any other? It behoves you to relate all this to us who are ignorant of everything.
