When the mountain forests burned on all sides with their sales and other trees of straight stems, and their delightful sandals and various excellent medicinal herbs, herds of deer and other animals filled with fear, came quickly to the place where Hara sat and sought his protection. With those creatures almost filling it, the hermitage of the great deity shone with a sort of peculiar beauty.
दह्यमाने वने तस्मिन् ससालसरलद्रुमे। सचन्दनवरे रम्ये दिव्यौषधिविदीपिते॥ मृगयूथैर्दुतैर्भीतैर्हरपार्श्वमुपागतैः। शरणं चाप्यविन्दद्भिस्तत् सदः संकुलं बभौ॥
