शिखिध्वज उवाच ।
सुखसंचारयोग्यासु जीवे सरति नाडिषु ।
देवपुत्र भवत्येव तद्वीर्यच्यवनं कथम् ॥ १४० ॥

śikhidhvaja uvāca |
sukhasaṃcārayogyāsu jīve sarati nāḍiṣu |
devaputra bhavatyeva tadvīryacyavanaṃ katham || 140 ||

Sikhidvaja asked said:—It is only when one feels some pleasure in his mind, that it runs in the blood through his veins and arteries; but the holy Narada could not be affected by the sight, nor drop his semen from him.
