प्रताप्य लोकानखिलांस्ततोऽसौ समागतं पद्मभवं ददर्श ॥ वरं हि दातुं तमुवाच धाता वरं वृणीष्वेति पितामहोपि ॥ निशम्य वाचं मधुरां विधातुर्वचोऽब्रवीदेव ममूढबुद्धिः ॥ १५ ॥

The Asura who had already scorched the worlds saw that the lotus-born deity had arrived. In order to grant him the boon Dhātṛ the grandfather of the worlds said—“Choose a boon.” On hearing the sweet words of the creator, the Asura of undismayed intellect spoke thus.
