The line
Wheat, rice, barley, and ṣāṣṭika (षाष्टिक), that good grain; milk, ghee, sugar, fresh butter, and prepared honey; dry ginger, paṭola (पटोल), and the five vegetables beginning with kaphala; and divine water beginning with mung. That is fit food for the lord of the restrained.

Where it sits
Ṣāṣṭika (षाष्टिक) is the rice that ripens in sixty days. Paṭola (पटोल) is the pointed gourd. The line's five vegetables begin with kaphala (कफल). The sitting keeps that name.
