Markandeya said : The assembled sages, then, having eulogised and paid their adorations to that most exalted lady and having taken leave of that most excellent of kings together with his son, soon left for their respective asylums in peace and with merry hearts.
मार्कण्डेय उवाच तथा प्रशस्य ह्यभिपूज्य चैव वरस्त्रियं तामृषयः समागताः। नरेन्द्रमामन्त्र्य सपुत्रमञ्जसा शिवेन जग्मुर्मुदिताः स्वमालयम्॥
