Skanda Purana — Avanti Khanda, Shloka 37
गते चादर्शनं तत्र सोऽपि बालो महाग्रहः । विचिन्तयन्वै पितरं क्रोधेन कलुषीकृतः
gate cādarśanaṃ tatra so'pi bālo mahāgrahaḥ | vicintayanvai pitaraṃ krodhena kaluṣīkṛtaḥ
तो निघून जाऊन तिथे अदृश्य झाल्यावर, तोही तरुण महाग्रह पित्याचा विचार करू लागला; क्रोधाने त्याचे मन कलुषित झाले।
