The princess never even glanced toward the side where Narada sat puffed up. Again and again the muni craned forward, restless, and the ganas smiled at his state. The merciful Lord came there in the form of a king, and the princess gladly placed the garland on Him. He led the bride away. Narada was stricken, his wits gone, as if a jewel had slipped from a knot in his cloth. Smiling, the ganas told him to go and look at his face in a mirror, and fled in fear. He saw his face in water, and at that sight his rage grew. He cursed them: you two deceitful sinners, go and become rakshasas; you laughed at me, now reap it,, then mock a muni again.
जेहि दिसि बैठे नारद फूली । सो दिसि देहि न बिलोकी भूली ॥
पुनि पुनि मुनि उकसहिँ अकुलाहीँ । देखि दसा हर-गन मुसुकाहीँ ॥
jehi disi baiṭhe nārada phūlī | so disi dehi na bilokī bhūlī ||
puni puni muni ukasahim̐ akulāhīm̐ | dekhi dasā hara-gana musukāhīm̐ ||
धरि नृप तनु तहँ गयउ कृपाला । कुँअरि हरषि मेलेउ जयमाला ॥
दुलहिनि लेइ गये लच्छिनिवासा । नृप-समाज सब भयउ निरासा ॥
dhari nṛpa tanu taham̐ gayau kṛpālā | kum̐ari haraṣi meleu jayamālā ||
dulahini lei gaye lacchinivāsā | nṛpa-samāja saba bhayau nirāsā ||
मुनि अति बिकल माह मति नाठी । मनि गिरि गई छूटि जनु गाँठी ॥
तब हर-गन बोले मुसुकाई । निज मुख मुकुर बिलोकहु जाई ॥
muni ati bikala māha mati nāṭhī | mani giri gaī chūṭi janu gām̐ṭhī ||
taba hara-gana bole musukāī | nija mukha mukura bilokahu jāī ||
अस कहि दोउ भागे भयं भारी । बदन दीख मुनि बारि निहारी ॥
बेष बिलोकि क्रोध अति बाढ़ा । तिन्हहिँ सराप दीन्ह अति गाढ़ा ॥
asa kahi dou bhāge bhayaṃ bhārī | badana dīkha muni bāri nihārī ||
beṣa biloki krodha ati bār̤hā | tinhahim̐ sarāpa dīnha ati gār̤hā ||
होहु निसाचर जाइ तुम्ह, कपटी पापी दोउ ।
हँसेहु हमहिँ सो लेहु फल, बहुरि हँसेहु मुनि कोउ ॥
hohu nisācara jāi tumha, kapaṭī pāpī dou |
ham̐sehu hamahim̐ so lehu phala, bahuri ham̐sehu muni kou ||
