श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
देवेषु कथयत्स्वेवं कृत्वेमां मेदिनीं धराम् ।
मेदोजालैः स भूतौघो मत्तो व्योम्नि ननर्त ह ॥ ६ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
deveṣu kathayatsvevaṃ kṛtvemāṃ medinīṃ dharām |
medojālaiḥ sa bhūtaugho matto vyomni nanarta ha || 6 ||

Vasishtha said:—As the gods were speaking in this manner, the demons were employed in the meantime to construct the earth anew with the materials of the carcass, after which they flew in the air, and kept on dancing and flouncing there.
