तं दृष्ट्वा मोहमत्युग्रं तस्याहं मायया स्वया ॥ तेषां संहृत्य सद्बुद्धिं शापं दापितवान् किल ॥६॥

On seeing his excessive delusion as a result of my deceptive art I suppressed their virtuous intellect and made them suffer curse.

Having thus performed my sport, I suppressed the illusion. Regaining knowledge they got rid of delusion and became well-intentioned.

They came near me in a piteous plight. After bowing to me they eulogised me devoutly and humbly with palms joined in reverence.
