brahmā janārdano vāpi yadi vā nīlalohitaḥ /
tamapyadya kariṣyāmi kāmabāṇakṣatāntaram //

“Among them an Apsaras named Vapu, confident of perturbing the Muni, replied, ‘I will follow where the Muni dwells; now will I make that tamer of his body, who has yoked the horses of his organs, but a poor charioteer whose reins drop before the weapons of love. Whether it be Brahmā, or Janārdana or the purple Śiva, his heart will I now pierce with the arrow of love.’

Frederick Eden Pargiter 1888, The Mārkaṇḍeya Purāṇa
