Now I wish to hear the deeds of him who wears the moon (on his crest): how he lovingly gave lordship over the Gaṇas to the demon Bāṇa. — The first two sons of Diti, the eldest (wife), were of great strength: Hiraṇyakaśipu the elder, and after him the younger, Hiraṇyākṣa. — Pleased by that dance he became well disposed indeed; Śaṃkara, fond of his devotees, looked upon (him) with a compassionate glance. — The false reasoners perished, and the barbarians, and the waylayers; the Mothers stood facing (him), and the terrors perished. — "I am coming; you go to the Lord and tell him by my command"; then Nandin, swift as thought, came near to Rudra. — And then, seeing the transformation of Urvaśī's form — Ghṛtācī (took) the form of Kālī, and Viśvācī the body of Cāṇḍikā. — "Since from childhood you have been a devotee of Viṣṇu, unwearied day and night" — "So be it," she said, her face shamed in her mind.
