Vishakha went where the divine daughter of Himavat was. The adorable Shakha, which is Kartikeya's airy form, went towards Agni. Naigameya, that child of fiery splendour, went before Ganga.
विशाखस्तु ययौ येन देवी गिरीवरात्मजा॥ शाखो ययौ स भगवान् वायुमूर्तिर्विभावसुं। नैगमेयोऽगमद् गङ्गां कुमारः पावकप्रभः॥
