Sanskrit text, Unicode transliteration, Word-for-word and English translation of verse 1.1.38-39:

सुखं संवेश्� देवं तं स्�-गृहं गन्तुम� उद्यतम� �
दूराच् छ्री-नारद� दृष्त्वोत्थितो मुनि-समाजतः � ३८ �
अयम् एव मह�-विष्णो� प्रेयान् इत� मुहुर् ब्रुवन� �
धावन� गत्वान्तिक� तस्य विप्रेन्द्रस्येदम् अब्रवीत् � ३९ �

ayam eva mahā-viṣṇo� preyān iti muhur bruvan |
dhāvan gatvāntike tasya viprendrasyedam abravīt || 39 ||

Then the 󳾲ṇa gracefully placed the ś峾 deity of 󲹲 on the ṃhԲ to rest and began to ready himself to return home. At that time Śrī saw the 󳾲ṇa from a distance and all of a sudden began to rise from the assembly of sages. Over and again he kept repeating, “This mahāśaya alone is indeed dear to Ѳ屹ṣṇ!� Speaking like this, he approached the 󳾲ṇa.

Commentary: Dig-darśinī-ṭīkā with Bhāvānuvāda

(By Śrīla Sanātana Gosvāmī himself including a deep purport of that commentary)

Having placed the ś峾 of 󲹲 on the ṃhԲ to rest, the exalted 󳾲ṇa readied to go home. At that moment 岹jī began speaking repeatedly upon seeing the 󳾲ṇa from a distance, “This 󳾲ṇa is indeed extremely dear to our Prabhu!�
