Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 20
न यस्यालमपि ब्रह्मामहिमानं विवर्णितुम् । श्रुतिश्च भीता यं वक्ति किं तस्मात्परमं भवेत्
na yasyālamapi brahmāmahimānaṃ vivarṇitum | śrutiśca bhītā yaṃ vakti kiṃ tasmātparamaṃ bhavet

Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta), narrating to the sages (deduced from Māheśvarakhaṇḍa context)
Scene: A theological crescendo: Brahmā cannot fully describe Śiva’s glory; even Śruti speaks in awe—there can be nothing higher.
