Shiva Purana

siva.sh/siva-purana/vayaviya-samhita/31/43

मूर्त्यात्मस्वपि रागाद्या दोषाः सन्त्येव वस्तुतः ॥ तथापि तेषामेवैते न शिवस्य तु सर्वथा ॥ अग्नावपि समाविष्टं ताम्रं खलु सकालिकम् ॥ ४३ ॥

sanskrit

In reality, even in the form of the self, there are evils such as passion. Yet these are not the same as Lord Śiva’s. Copper is indeed incorporated into the fire at the same time.

english translation

mUrtyAtmasvapi rAgAdyA doSAH santyeva vastutaH ॥ tathApi teSAmevaite na zivasya tu sarvathA ॥ agnAvapi samAviSTaM tAmraM khalu sakAlikam ॥ 43 ॥
