Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 40

Devanagari script

मत्कृते हि द्विजश्रेष्ठ यातु ते मनसो ज्वरः । मार्कण्डेयवचः श्रुत्वा मृकण्डो मुनिसत्तमः । जगाम परमं हर्षं क्षणमेकं सुदुःसहम्

Transliteration

matkṛte hi dvijaśreṣṭha yātu te manaso jvaraḥ | mārkaṇḍeyavacaḥ śrutvā mṛkaṇḍo munisattamaḥ | jagāma paramaṃ harṣaṃ kṣaṇamekaṃ suduḥsaham

Translation

“为我之故，噢最胜的二次生者（dvija），愿你心中的热恼尽皆消散。”听闻马尔坎德耶之言，姆里坎杜——诸圣中最卓越者——被无上的欢喜所攫住，汹涌难当，哪怕片刻也几乎难以承受。
