नानाविहारकृन्नाथस्स्वतंत्र परमोतिकृत् ॥ नानामत्तं तदा दक्षं स्वासनस्थो महेश्वरः ॥ ११ ॥
But lord Śiva who indulges in diverse sports, sat firmly and did not bow to Him. Naturally the lord who is the cause of protection is independent.

एते हि सर्वे च सुरासुरा भृशं नमंति मां विप्रवरास्तथर्षयः ॥ कथं ह्यसौ दुर्जनवन्महामनास्त्वभूत्तु यः प्रेतपिशाचसंवृतः ॥ १४ ॥
Dakṣa said: All these Suras and Asuras, brahmins and sages bow to me. How is it that this gentleman who is always surrounded by goblins and ghosts behaves like a wicked man?

श्मशानवासी निरपत्रपो ह्ययं कथं प्रणामं न करोति मेऽधुना ॥ लुप्तक्रियो भूतपिशाचसेवितो मत्तोऽविधो नीतिविदूषकस्सदा ॥ १५॥
How is it that this shameless frequenter of cremation grounds does not bow to me now? He is devoid of rites. He has cast off religious practices. He is surrounded by spirits and ghosts. He is elated and he spoils good policies and conventions.
