Skanda Purana — Kashi Khanda, Shloka 100
इति संश्रुत्य संभ्रांत उत्थाय स दनोः सुतः । त्रिशूलं देहि मे कांते प्रोवाचेति मुहुर्मुहुः
iti saṃśrutya saṃbhrāṃta utthāya sa danoḥ sutaḥ | triśūlaṃ dehi me kāṃte provāceti muhurmuhuḥ
Mendengar itu, putra Danu bangkit dengan gelisah; berulang-ulang ia berseru, “Wahai kekasih, berikanlah trisula itu kepadaku!”
