71.In Svargaloka there was beautiful music of dundubhi and anaka drums. There was a great shower of parijata flowers. 72.The earth-goddess assumed the form of a human woman and visited Devaki’s maternity-room, there were loud sounds of conchshells and the sounds of ‘Victory!’ and ‘Hari!’ 73.Then saintly Devaki fell to the ground and the air suddenly passed from her belly. 74.Then Lord Krsna, the original Supreme Personality of Godhead, left the lotus-whorl of Devaki’s heart and manifested His transcendental form before her. 75.-80.O sage, then Vasudeva and Devaki saw before them the supremely handsome and charming Supreme Personality of Godhead, who had two arms, a flute in His hand, glittering shark-earrings, a gentle smile, great mercy for His devotees, ornaments of the kings of jewels, a form dark like a monsoon cloud, yellow garments, limbs anointed with sandal, aguru, musk and kunkuma, an autumn moon face, handsome bimba fruit lips, a peacock feather crown, a splendid jewel-crown, a threefold bending form, and a forest garland, who had the mark of Srivatsa on His chest, who was youthful, peaceful and handsome, and who was the Lord of both Brahma and Siva.
