You should forgive me, a sinner, you whose renown is highest, you who are without fault. 36To you, Visnu, of whom they say that remembering him destroys the darkness of men's ignorance, to that very one, master, I have done what is not good. 37So kill me quickly, Vaikuntha, the sinner, the deer-hunter, so that I may not again make such a trespass against the good.
