atha rajataviśuddhabhāvabhāvo bhavamabhipūjya digambaraṃ sugīrbhiḥ
śaraṇamupajagāma devadevaṃ madanāryandhakayajñadehaghātam //

Maya after thus haranguing his followers entered suddenly into his castle, full of the women folk with a very heavy mind After purifying himself he performed the worship of the Lord Śiva the Digamvara, who is white like silver, and praised Him with well chosen words and placed himself under the refuge of the Deva of the Devas, who is the enemy of passion, and the killer of Andhaka and the destroyer of Dakṣa's sacrifice The three eyed Śiva holding Moon on His forehead and His third eye effulgent did not take notice of the evil intentions of Maya who took His protection and wanted freedom from fear Śiva granted to Maya his desired boon who then became quite free from any cares—31 33
