Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 60
न सा नारी तु दैत्योऽसौ वायोर्नैवावबासत । वृथैव वीरकः शप्तो मया क्रोधपरीतया
na sā nārī tu daityo'sau vāyornaivāvabāsata | vṛthaiva vīrakaḥ śapto mayā krodhaparītayā
“Dia bukan wanita—dia itu seorang daitya (iblis); dan hal ini bahkan tidak disedari oleh Vāyu. Dalam amarah yang meluap, aku telah menyumpah Vīraka dengan sia-sia.”
Pārvatī/Umā (inner reflection rendered as speech within narration)
Scene: Devī recognizes the deception: the ‘woman’ was a demon; even Vāyu failed to perceive it. She laments that in anger she cursed Vīraka unjustly.
