फलं कतकवृक्षस्य यद्य् अप्य् अम्बुप्रसादकम् । न नामग्रहणाद् एव तस्य वारि प्रसीदति ॥
phalaṃ katakavṛkṣasya yady apy ambuprasādakam | na nāmagrahaṇād eva tasya vāri prasīdati ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Though the fruit of the Kataka tree (the clearing-nut) makes water clear, yet the (latter) does not become limpid in consequence of the mention of the (fruit's) name.
