5.17.19

asad-dṛśo yaḥ pratibhāti māyayā kṣībeva madhv-āsava-tāmra-locanaḥ /
na nāga-vadhvo 'rhaṇa īśire hriyā yat-pādayoḥ sparśana-dharṣitendriyāḥ //

20. “I bow to that Supreme Lord (Sankarshana) who, through (the veil of) Maya looks formidable like an insensible person with blood-shot and fiery eyes under the influence of liquors; — to that Lord in worshipping whom Naga damsels are not able to proceed steadily on account of shyness as their senses get confused on touching His feet (to worship Him).

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
