Coming up close, the gods, Brahma and Indra and the one who lives on the mountain and the rest; the sages, the fathers, the perfected ones, the vidyadharas and the great serpents; the Manus, the lords of creatures, the gandharvas, the apsarases and the caranas, the yaksas, the kimpurusas, dear one, and the vetalas with the kinnaras; and all those attendants of Visnu, Sunanda and Kumuda and the rest, with palms joined at their heads, keeping not far off, praised one after another the tiger among men as he sat there in his fierce blaze. I bow to the Endless, whose power has no end, whose feats are strange and many, whose acts make clean; who in his own play, using the strands, holds together the making, the keeping and the drawing in of the world, and never wastes away.

Your time for anger is the ending of an age, and this demon you have killed is a small thing. Guard his son, who has come to you and is devoted to you, you who are tender to those devoted to you.
