cheti bhavannikhila kheti chadambavana
vaati shunaakha patali
koTiira chaaru dhara koTi maNi kiraNa
koTi karambita padaa
{transliteration in ITRANS}. Maybe you can find this sloka in
'The complete works of Kalidasa' by Joshi.
Two good bookstores to contact are :
21st century bookstore (800-593-book) and bodhi tree (800-825-9798).
Both of them order from India, if neccessary.
