इत्युक्त्वा च सुरश्रेष्ठस्तत्रैवान्तरधीयत। देवतानां भयं दृष्ट्वा श्रुत्वा वाक्यं तु शाङ्गिणः॥ हालाहलं विषं घोरं संजग्राहामृतोपमम्। देवान् विसृज्य देवेशो जगाम भगवान् हरः॥

English Meaning
Having said this, that best of celestials vanished there. Witnessing the dismay of the celestials, and hearing also the words of Śārngiņa, Śiva took in that dreadful poison as if it were nectar, and then leaving the deities, the worshipful Hara wen away.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
