57. May that glorious Lord whose true nature can be known (only) through the Sāstrās, be pleased to look on us the celestial ranks who are created for protecting the world from the causes which may disturb its orderly condition, with His eye full of mercy which vies with a fresh-blown lotus, the abode of Sri (Lakshmi or splendour).
