Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 22
आकाशे सर्वभूतानि त्रेसुर्विश्वं चचाल ह । देवाश्च व्याकुला जाता महाभयमुपागताः
ākāśe sarvabhūtāni tresurviśvaṃ cacāla ha | devāśca vyākulā jātā mahābhayamupāgatāḥ
Tous les êtres dans le ciel frémirent, et l’univers tout entier vacilla. Même les dieux furent bouleversés, saisis d’une grande terreur.
