Still Viṣṇu created the universe along with me. Due to rivalry he was taunted by me depending on the strength of your support.

“O Viṣṇu, your piety towards the lord is not more than that of mine” (I told him) because our origin from you is on the same footing.

O Śiva, it behoves you to give all that to me also in the manner you bestowed on him before due to his devotion.
