^[1] The words used of Kumudvatî are selected with reference to the original meaning of that name. Kumudvatî is likened to a group of lotuses (kumudvatî) growing in a pond (sarasaḥ prarûḍhâ), which open their blossoms (vikasvar-âṅgî) when touched by the beams (kara-sparśam avâpya) of the moon. The marriage of Kuśa and Kumudvatî, the sister of the serpent Kumuda, is told in the sixteenth sarga of the Raghuvaṁśa.
