[2] Cattvarimsacchata-Raga-Nirupanam: Master of archery, seated on an elephant and dressed in white, Purvika has a splendid body and is served by all the different varnas.
Fair and charming like the moon, she holds a cup of wine and a parrot in her hands and she is served by women who are graceful and lively like the young deer.
