‘Placing the Mother of the Three Worlds upon a golden throne, studded with precious gems, Śūlapāṇi dances on the heights of Kailās, and all the *devas* gather round him.
‘Sarasvati plays on the *vīṇā*, Indra on the flute, Brahmā holds the cymbals marking time, Lakṣmī begins a song, Vishṇu plays on a drum, and all the *devas* stand round about.
‘Gandharvas, Yakṣas, Patagas, Uragas, Siddhas, Sāddhyas, Vidyādharas, Amaras, Apsarasas, and all the beings dwelling in the Three Worlds assemble there to witness the celestial dance and hear the music of the divine choir at the hour of twilight.’
