48.7

anyāṃ tanumupādāya sisṛkṣuḥ prītimāpa saḥ /
sattvodrekāstato devā mukhatastasya jajñire //

Being desirous of creating, he assumed another body and experienced delight; then were produced from his mouth the Gods in whom goodness predominates. And the mighty lord of created beings abandoned that body also, and when cast aside it became Day wherein goodness predominates.

Frederick Eden Pargiter 1888, The Mārkaṇḍeya Purāṇa
