नक्षत्रतारका द्यौश च ग्रैवेयकविभूषणम। कथं स्तोष्यामि देवेशं पूज्यश च पुरुषोत्तमः।।

Nandin said: The seven nether worlds are your feet; the earth constitutes your loins; the seven oceans[1] are your clothes; the four quarters are your great arms. O lord, the heaven is your head; the sky is your umbilicus; the wind is your nose; the sun and the moon are your eyes, Puṣkara and others constitute your tresses. The stars, constellations and firmament are the ornaments round your neck. How shall I eulogise you the lord of Devas? You are worthy of worship. Whatever was done, heard and glorified faithfully as divine, whatever was sacrificed by me O Lord! you shall bear all. Obeisance be to you.
