8.8.24

evaṃ vimṛśyāvyabhicārisadguṇair varaṃ nijaikāśrayatayāguṇāśrayam /
vavre varaṃ sarvaguṇairapekṣitaṃ ramā mukundaṃ nirapekṣamīpsitam //

23. Having thus well thought over, she chose for her consort Mukunda who was the most worthy by His constant and excellent qualities and also for His desirelessness, who was beyond the qualities of Prakriti, in whom all powers dwelt, who depended upon no other and who was the One desired by her. 24. On His shoulders she placed the charming wreath of fresh lotus-blossoms resonant with the hummings of maddened hosts of honey-gatherers and stood by in His presence, having betaken herself to her own place, His bosom, through her eyes blooming with smiles checked by her bashfulness (eagerly looking at His bosom her own resting place).
