There is no doubt in this, that only when my lord is resuscitated will your sportive dalliance with your beloved Pārvatī be complete (prapūrṇa) and perfect. You are competent to do everything because you are the supreme lord. O lord of all, of what avail is this talk. Please resuscitate my husband quickly”.
