O PitAmaha! we are flying from them like the geese at the approach of clouds and the deer at the approach of a lion. 0, Pious One! we are so much confused by our troubles that we have forgotten even the names of our better halves and sons, etc. The DAnavas blinded by greed and delusion have broken the dwellings of the Devas and the hermitages of the anchorites and are travelling all over the world. If you do not come readily to the rescue of the distressed, all this universe will become devoid of habitation, as well as of men, Devas and Risis." — 3-9.
