Verse 14

¹⁰The lord of the senses asked him, as he stood there bowed low, a person with a body that shone and a garland of gold about him: ¹¹Who are you? You are lovely with a great splendour and a wonder to see. How were you brought, with no say in it, to that state men shun? ¹²I am a certain vidyadhara, and Sudarsana is the name I was known by. With my splendour and my wealth of good looks I used to travel the quarters in my flying chariot. ¹³Proud of my beauty, I laughed at the sages of Angiras' line, whose shape is ill made. Mocked by me, they brought me to that birth, and my own wrong did it. ¹⁴The curse those tender-hearted ones laid on me was laid only to favour me, since the world's teacher has touched me with his foot and my evil is struck away.
