"By you alone, Govinda, was he given, and by you alone struck down. Play as you wish, as a child plays with toys. These earrings are yours, O god; protect his subjects. Let the sages and gods move about unhindered, free of affliction; let the subjects live happily under your protection, O god; let the brahmins be free of obstruction, O god, under your rule." Having said this, she gave him the two earrings famed in the worlds; and then the goddess vanished, (going) to her husband's side. Having slain Naraka, son of Earth, Viṣṇu, the younger brother of Vāsava, whose valour equalled Vāsava's, beheld Naraka's dwelling.
