Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translation

Ruṣṭa (रुष्ट) refers to the “anger” of Rudra, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.2.1. Accordingly, as Brahmā said:—“[...] The policy in agreement with what is laid down in the Vedas and Smṛtis is this, O Sage, which you must note. When lord Rudra is angry (ruṣṭa), how can there be happiness in the world? On hearing his song of praise Rudra relented. Favourably disposed to the miserable that he was, he granted their request”.
