Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 61
यं समासाद्य वेगेन दिशामंतं प्रपेदिरे । दक्षस्य दश पुत्राणां सहस्राणि प्रजापतेः
yaṃ samāsādya vegena diśāmaṃtaṃ prapedire | dakṣasya daśa putrāṇāṃ sahasrāṇi prajāpateḥ
Setibanya mereka kepadanya dengan laju yang besar, mereka pun sampai ke batas-batas segala penjuru—yakni ribuan yang tergolong kepada sepuluh putera Dakṣa, sang Prajāpati.
