Skanda Purana — Kashi Khanda, Shloka 58
तदास्य शरणं यातो मन्ये दर्शभयाच्छशी । दिवापि न त्यजेत्तां तु त्रस्तश्चंडमरीचितः
tadāsya śaraṇaṃ yāto manye darśabhayācchaśī | divāpi na tyajettāṃ tu trastaścaṃḍamarīcitaḥ
ខ្ញុំគិតថា សូម្បីតែព្រះចន្ទក៏បានសុំជ្រកកោននាង ដោយភ័យថានឹងត្រូវពន្លឺនាងលើសលប់។ សូម្បីតែពេលថ្ងៃ ក៏មិនចាកចេញពីនាងទេ ព្រោះខ្លាចកាំរស្មីដ៏កាចសាហាវនៃព្រះអាទិត្យ។
