Lalitā Sahasranāma ◆, Name 23 of 1000: पद्मरागशिलादर्शपरिभाविकपोलभूःपद्म-राग-शिलादर्श-परिभावि-कपोलभूः · PadmarāgaśilādarśaparibhāvikapolabhūḥPadma-rāga-śilādarśa-paribhāvi-kapolabhūḥ

Her cheeks are so smooth and so deeply flushed that a mirror cut from ruby would look dull held beside them.

In the stotra the name is chanted as it stands, padmarāgaśilādarśaparibhāvikapolabhūḥ, as part of Shloka 9. In the nāmāvalī, the form used for arcana(worship with an offering at each name), it is turned to the dative, the case of offering: “to her”. Then it is framed by oṃ before and namaḥ, “salutation”, after.

Recite it among the thousand names →Loop its shloka until you know it →

Tap a syllable to see the letters inside it and hear each sound.

The final member bhū is inherently feminine, so the ending does not decide the class; the compound is read as a bahuvrīhi because the epithet names the goddess and not a pair of cheeks.
