Hariharānanda Bhāratī’s Sanskrit commentary, translated

"Stambham" and the rest. Bringing one beautiful pillar, measured at twenty cubits (viṁśahastamita, twenty cubits long), straight (sarala, not crooked), made of wood (dāruja, born of timber), and smeared (ukṣita, anointed) with oils and turmeric, he should bathe it with water from a sacred place (tīrtha) with the vyāhṛti and the praṇava. On that bathed pillar he should worship the nāga together with Hrī, Śrī, Kṣamā and Śānti.
