यद् एतत् परिसंख्यातम् आदाव् एव चतुर्युगम् । एतद् द्वादशसाहस्रं देवानां युगम् उच्यते) ॥
yad etat parisaṃkhyātam ādāv eva caturyugam | etad dvādaśasāhasraṃ devānāṃ yugam ucyate) ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
These twelve thousand (years) which thus have been just mentioned as the total of four (human) ages, are called one age of the gods.
