"Having spent this night, O night of immeasurable prowess, / tomorrow you shall then receive that son, the little Aśoka tree." (39) / Holding to the earth covered with darbha grass, that supporter of the earth, / following the god's command, slept for one night, keeping her vow. (40) / Then, when the hundred-thousand-rayed sun arose, [Śiva,] creator of the sun, / said to Umā: "Let us go to where that Aśoka, your son, is." (41)
