v1.c6.s3.19

²⁸ ‘Matsya Purāṇa’, CCLII, 5-19. Versions of this account are also given in the ‘Vāsturājavallabha’, II. 1; ‘Manuṣyālayacandrikā’, II. 27-28; ‘Mahāmanuṣyālayacandrikā’, Comm. ‘Sārārthadarpaṇa’, p. 31. In the last named version, Śiva-Rudra fights Kāla. The sweat of Śiva or of Bhārgava is produced by fiery heat (tejas) or wrath. In this sense it is also said that Sāvitrī, the mother of the Veda was born of the sweat of Kālī’s body.
