Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 22
एवं तदा ते ह्यृषयोऽपि मोहिता रूपेण तस्याः किमुताथ देवताः । तथैव सर्वे च निरीक्ष्य तन्वीं सतीं गिरिन्द्रस्य सुतां शिवप्रियाम्
evaṃ tadā te hyṛṣayo'pi mohitā rūpeṇa tasyāḥ kimutātha devatāḥ | tathaiva sarve ca nirīkṣya tanvīṃ satīṃ girindrasya sutāṃ śivapriyām
So also: Wenn schon die Rishis von ihrer Gestalt bezaubert wurden, was ist dann erst von den Göttern zu sagen? Als alle die schlanke Satī erblickten—Tochter des Herrn der Berge und Geliebte Śivas—wurden sie gleichermaßen hingerissen.
