महेश उवाच ।। हे दैत्यनाथ कुरु नेन्द्रियसंघपातं किमर्थमेतद्व्रतमाश्रितं ते ।। प्रब्रूहि कामं वरदो भवोऽहं यदिच्छसि त्वं सकलं ददामि ।। ३१ ।।

O lord of Daityas, do not curb your senses so much. Why have you taken up this sacred rite? Speak out what you desire. I am Śiva, the granter of desires. I shall grant whatever you desire.
