vadhūrvidhātrā pratinandyate sma kalyāṇi vīraprasavā bhaveti |
vācaspatiḥ sannapi so'ṣṭamūrttavāśāsya cintāstimito babhūva ||

The rite is o'er—her joyful parents now
At Brahma's feet in duteous reverence bow:
Then to fair Uma spake the gracious Power
Who sits enthroned upon the Lotus flower:—
"O beautiful Lady, happy shalt thou he,
And hero children shall be born of thee!"
Then looked in silence,—vain the hope to bless
The Bridegroom, Siva, with more happiness!

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1853, The Birth of the War-God (cantos 1–7)
