Skanda Purana — Brahma Khanda, Shloka 44
अथांबराद्द्रुतं पेतुर्दिव्याः कुसुमवृष्टयः । प्रणेदुर्देवतूर्याणि देवाश्च ननृतुर्जगुः
athāṃbarāddrutaṃ peturdivyāḥ kusumavṛṣṭayaḥ | praṇedurdevatūryāṇi devāśca nanṛturjaguḥ
Bấy giờ, từ hư không liền tuôn xuống mau chóng những trận mưa hoa thần diệu. Nhạc khí chư thiên vang rền, và các thần múa hát mừng vui.
