So long as men are not yours, Krsna, so long are longing and the rest of them thieves, so long is a house a prison, so long is delusion a chain on the foot. Though there is no spread-out world in you, you play at one on the earth, master, to make wide the whole gathering of joy for the people who have come to you for shelter. Let those who know, know. What is the use of much talking, master? Your power is not within reach of my mind or my body or my speech. Give me leave, Krsna. You know everything, you see everything. You yourself are the lord of the worlds, and this world has been laid at your feet. Sri Krsna, you who give the lotus of the Vrsni family its delight, who make the earth and the gods and the brahmins and the cattle and the seas increase, destroyer of the night of false dharma, enemy of the raksasas of the earth, lasting as the sun to the end of the age: worthy one, Bhagavan, homage to you.

Having praised the boundless one in this way, and walked round him three times, and bowed at his feet, the Ordainer of the world went back to his own realm with what he had wanted.
