ततः क्रुद्धो महादेवस्तदुपादाय कार्मुकम् । आजगामाथ तन्नैव यत्र देवा: समीजिरे,तदनन्तर कुपित हुए महादेवजी उस धनुषको लेकर उसी स्थानपर आये, जहाँ देवतालोग यज्ञ कर रहे थे
tataḥ kruddho mahādevas tadupādāya kārmukam | ājagāmātha tan naiva yatra devāḥ samījire ||
Then Mahādeva, angered, took up that bow and came to the very place where the gods had assembled for their sacrificial rite.
