When his loud bellow, which drowned the ocean, was overcome by the tinkling of her anklet,
and the blood flowing even from the wound made by his clinging horn was mistaken for her own lac dye,
her foot, placed upon the buffalo's shoulder as he rubbed against it, thinking it the Vindhya mountain, stole his life-breaths,
unwittingly, as it were: may that Śivā grant you auspicious blessing! (2)
