### SB 3.20.47

> देहेन वै भोगवता शयानो बहुचिन्तया ।\
> सर्गेऽनुपचिते क्रोधादुत्ससर्ज ह तद्वपुः ॥४७॥

> dehena vai bhogavatā\
> śayāno bahu-cintayā\
> sarge 'nupacite krodhād\
> utsasarja ha tad vapuḥ

*dehena*—with his body; *vai*—indeed; *bhogavatā*—stretching out full length; *śayānaḥ*—lying fully stretched; *bahu*—great; *cintayā*—with concern; *sarge*—the creation; *anupacite*—not proceeded; *krodhāt*—out of anger; *utsasarja*—gave up; *ha*—in fact; *tat*—that; *vapuḥ*—body.

**Once Brahmā lay down with his body stretched at full length. He was very concerned that the work of creation had not proceeded apace, and in a sullen mood he gave up that body too.**
