Shloka 22
भगस्य नयने चैव बाहू च सवितुस्तथा | प्रादात् पूृष्णश्व॒ दशनान् पुनर्यज्ञांश्व पाण्डव,पाण्डुनन्दन! फिर भगवान् शिवने भगको आँखें, सविताको दोनों बाँहें, पूषाको दाँत और देवताओंको यज्ञ प्रदान किये
bhagasya nayane caiva bāhū ca savituḥ tathā | prādāt pūṣṇaś ca daśanān punar yajñāṃś ca pāṇḍava ||
Vaiśaṃpāyana said: Śiva restored what had been lost in the earlier conflict among the gods—he gave Bhaga back his eyes, returned Savitṛ’s two arms, and restored Pūṣan’s teeth; and he also re-established the sacrificial rites for the gods.
