(He saw him who is) the terror of the three worlds, greedy, a hunter, the destroyer of the sacrifice, accompanied by the sons of the Kṛttikās, frenzied, clad in a hide. Then that great demon Andhaka was addressed by Maheśāna; the asura, conciliatingly, (spoke of) all that had been done by the great-souled one: 'May this Goddess, the mother of the world, be wholly pleased with me; abandoning all anger, gracious, may she look upon me.' He was kissed on the head by Pārvatī and by the wise Śaṃkara, and thus obtained what he desired from the pleased one who wears the young moon.
