इत्युक्ते वामदेवेन नद्याद्यास्स्वगणाश्च ते ॥ महावेगा महावीरा नानास्थानेषु संययुः ॥ ११ ॥

When Śiva said like this, Nandin and others who constituted the powerful set of attendants of quick speed left for different places.

english translation

ईश्वरोपि तया सार्द्धं तेषु यातेषु विभ्रमी ॥ दाक्षायण्या समं रेमे रहस्ये मुदितो भृशम् ॥ १२ ॥

When they went away and He was left alone with Satī, Śiva rejoiced much and sported with her.

english translation

कदाचिद्वन्य पुष्पाणि समाहृत्य मनोहराम् ॥ मालां विधाय सत्यास्तु हारस्थाने स योजयत्॥ १३॥

Sometimes He gathered some sylvan flowers and wreathed a fine garland out of them which he put round her neck in the place of the necklace.

english translation

कदाचिद्दर्पणे चैव वीक्षतीमात्मनस्सतीम् ॥ अनुगम्य हरो वक्त्रम् स्वीयमप्यवलोकयत ॥ १४ ॥

While Satī was admiring at the reflection of her face in the mirror, Śiva came behind and peeped into the reflection of His own face.

english translation

कदाचित्कुंडलं तस्या उल्लास्योल्लास्य संगतः॥ बध्नाति मोचयत्येव सा स्वयं मार्जयत्यपि ॥ १५॥

Sometimes He would be sporting with her ear-rings, tying and untying and scrubbing them Himself.
