Stuvat) refers to 鈥渆ulogising鈥�, according to the 艢ivapur膩峁嘺 2.3.19 (鈥淜膩ma鈥檚 destruction by 艢iva鈥�).鈥擜ccordingly, after 艢iva spoke to the Gods: 鈥淎fter saying this Rudra vanished even as the gods were eulogising [i.e., 蝉迟耻惫补迟腻] Him. The gods became delighted and free from mental suspense. O sage, abiding by the directions of 艢iva and consoling Rati by means of the conciliatory words of 艢iva, the gods returned to their respective places. O excellent sage, then Rati, the wife of K膩ma went to the city and waited for the time mentioned by Siva鈥�.

His words are authoritative. Truthfully, I can never repay the goodwill of the 惫谤补箩补-惫腻蝉墨蝉; I am a great debtor to them. Even if I went and resided in Vraja out of love for them, it still would not be to their welfare or satisfaction. [...]鈥�.
