v2.c17.66

"Vāmadeva continued : thus commanded by Śiva, Devī, in the habit of a cowherdess, went to gather flowers in the wood that had fine creepers in it, when at the sight of the fawn-eyed damsel, the two demons with clasped hands thus addressed her : 'O Devi, O most propitious, you are become (as it were) our life, we have long desired to possess you.' The cowherdess answered, 'O resplendent ones, I have a vow to observe ; do you hear it ? Having fulfilled it, you may make me your spouse. Whoever, after I have placed my feet on his shoulders or on his head, may be able to raise me from the ground, shall have me for his wife.'
