kṛṣṇetyuktvā hareṇāhaṃ ninditā cāpyaninditā
sārhaṃ tapaḥ kariṣyāmi yena gaurītvamāpnuyām //
On his having thus spoken to Pârvatî, She said after fondling him with her right arm “Son ! do not be sorry You should not throw yourself down from the mountain nor should you accompany me Son ! I tell you what you ought to do Śiva has despised me by calling me Kṛiṣṇâ (black) so I shall practise austerities in order that I may become fair complexioned This Śiva is desirous of women After I go away you should keep guard at the gate so that no other woman might come Son ! If you find any other woman coming in do report it to me and I shall at once arrange about it”—28-33
