इत्युक्तवति तस्मिंस्तु वेदवत्यथ साब्रवीत्। मा मैवमिति सा कन्या तमुवाच निशाचरम्॥ त्रैलोक्याधिपतिं विष्णुं सर्वलोकनमस्कृतम्। त्वदृते राक्षसेन्द्रान्यः कोऽवमन्येत बुद्धिमान्॥

English Meaning
Thus accosted, Vedavati said to the nightranger 'Do not say so' in respect of Visnu, lord of this triune sphere, bowed down to by all creatures. Save and except you alone, O King of Raksasa, who, that is intelligent, cried down (Narayana).
