**Mahādeva (Siva) and Pārvatī.** The wanderers have made their camp for the night, and Mahādeva watches the sleeping Pārvatī, stretched on the tiger-skin, her head supported by his knee; Nandi in the foreground; to the right, the trident, banner, drum, and bowl of the Great Yogī. In the background a lotus lake, and to the left wild creatures in their caves. Mahādeva wears the crescent moon, and his serpent-garland is winding along his arm. The moment is a little later than that described in the 8th Canto of the *Kumāra-Sambhava*.
