Your body looks dried up as if consumed by fire The serpents in Your noose are vomiting blood O Vayu! You also appear to be quite senseless as if subdued by oily substances O Kuvera! Why are you so much afraid? and given up your office of Kuverahood O Rudras! You are all armed with tridents but seem to have been pierced by many tridents Who has snatched away all Your splendour? It appears as if nothing has been accomplished by You O Viṣṇu! How is it that your hands have become useless What is the use now in your holding the disc, of the lustre of blue lotus. O all faced one! why are you absorbed with closed eyes in looking at the worlds, in your own belly?—22 26 > — A Taluqdar of Oudh 1916, The Matsya Puranam - [Previous: 154.25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.154.25) - [Next: 154.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.154.27) - [Up: 154](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.154) ## Translations (2) - [The Matsya Puranam](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya~en-taluqdar.154.p6) — A Taluqdar of Oudh 1916, English - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya~en-mt.154.26) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.154.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.154.26) · Pramāṇa
