Then on the day of Hari [Ekādaśī], Surabhi followed the king of the gods, arrived at the region of Bhuvarloka above the land of Vṛndāvana, and waited for an opportune moment. And there from afar Surabhi said to the lord of the gods: / "That is not a cloud—see, it is Mount Govardhana! / This is not a new part of it—it is Kṛṣṇa! / This is not the lightning—it is the splendor of his fluttering yellow garment! / This is not a low thunder—it is playful conversation!"
