25.17

rakṣate dānavāṃstatra na sa rakṣatyadānavān
tam ārādhayituṃ śakto nānyaḥ kaścidṛte tvayā //

The Devas said :—" Kacha, we are at your mercy, do come to our rescue. We beseech you to somehow acquire the sañjivant (Resuscitation) knowledge from Śukra, by doing that you will become entitled to receive a share out of the offerings made to us. You should try to meet Śukra in the court of Vṛiṣaparvan. Who guards the Asuras and not the Devas. You alone can propitiate him none else can do it. None excepting you can also please Devayâni the daughter of Śukra. By pleasing her with tact, shrewdness, and sweetness you will be able to acquire that wonderful sañjîvanî knowledge."—15-19.
