Verse 5.54.85

अथ स्वधर्मनिरतं भोगेष्वरतिमागतम् ।
तमुपास्य ययुः सिद्धा दिनैः कतिपयैः स्वयम् ॥ ८५ ॥

atha svadharmanirataṃ bhogeṣvaratimāgatam |
tamupāsya yayuḥ siddhā dinaiḥ katipayaiḥ svayam || 85 ||

The Siddhas honoured him for his devotedness to his pursuit, and his abjuring the desire of carnal gratifications. They then departed to their elysian abode from there, after tarrying there in vain for some days, to entice the hermit to their Parnassian fields.
