Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 28
अस्माभी रुद्रसामीप्ये कार्यं सर्वं निवेदितम् । ततः प्रस्थापिताः सर्वे रुद्रेण परमेष्ठिना । तव पार्श्वे महादेव नस्त्वं देव गतिर्भव
asmābhī rudrasāmīpye kāryaṃ sarvaṃ niveditam | tataḥ prasthāpitāḥ sarve rudreṇa parameṣṭhinā | tava pārśve mahādeva nastvaṃ deva gatirbhava
आम्ही रुद्राच्या सान्निध्यात सर्व कार्य निवेदिले. मग परमेष्ठी रुद्राने आम्हा सर्वांना पुढे पाठविले. आता, हे महादेवा, तुझ्या चरणसमीपे तूच आमचा आश्रय व आमची गति हो, हे देवा.
