Verse 57

⁵¹with a crown, bracelets and armlets of masses of the costliest jewels, with waist-cord and sacred thread, necklace, anklets and earrings, ⁵²shining, a lotus in his hand, holding conch and wheel and mace, the Srivatsa on his chest, the Kaustubha blazing, wearing the garland of the wood; ⁵³with his attendants, Sunanda and Nanda at their head, and Sanaka and the others, and the lords of the gods with Brahma and Rudra at their head, and the nine best of the twice-born; ⁵⁴praised by the best of the Lord's own, Prahlada and Narada and Vasu at their head, in words of separate feeling, out of clean hearts; ⁵⁵waited on by Sri and Pusti, by Speech and Beauty, by Fame and Contentment, by Ila and Urja, by knowledge and by unknowing, by Power and by maya.

⁵⁶Seeing this he was very glad, and the highest devotion came upon him; the hair rose on his body, and his eyes and his whole self were wet with feeling. ⁵⁷And steadying himself, the Satvata praised him with a stammering voice, bowing his head, attentive, his palms folded together, slowly.
