saṃjñā ca raviṇā dṛṣṭā nimīlayati locane /
yatastataḥ saroṣor'kaḥ saṃjñāṃ niṣṭhuramabravīt //
And Sañjñā used to shut her eyes when the Sun gazed on her, and the Sun in anger thereat spoke sharply to Sañjñā—“Because thou dost always imprison thine eyes when thou seest me, O silly one, thou shalt therefore give birth to Yama, the imprisoner[1] of mankind.”
