He eats food of sour milk and smears a white garment. [He holds] a white umbrella over his head, decorates [himself] with a white garland or ribbon. [He sees] a throne, chariot or vehicle, the flag of royal initiation (ṣeԲ�dhvaja� ṣeԲm). He decorates [these things] with a coral, betel leaf fruit. [He also] sees Śrī or Sarasvatī�.
