could see her transcendental beauty, which resulted from her conceiving the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
Commenting upon this verse, Śrī Virarāghava Ācārya writes,  vasudeva-devakī-jaṭharayor hṛdayayor bhagavataḥ sambandhaḥ . The Supreme Lord's entrance into the womb of Devakī from the heart of Vasudeva was a heart-to-heart relationship.
TEXT 19
सा देवकी सर्वजगन्निवास- निवासभूता नितरां न रेजे । भोजेन्द्रगेहेऽग्निशिखेव रुद्धा सरस्वती ज्ञानखले यथा सती ॥१९॥
sā devakī sarva-jagan-nivāsa- nivāsa-bhūtā nitarām na reje bhojendra-gehe 'gni-śikheva ruddhā sarasvatī jñāna-khale yathā satī
sā devakī—that Devakīdevī; sarva-jagat-nivāsa—of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the sustainer of all the universes (mat-sthāni sarva-bhūtāni); nivāsa-bhūtā—the womb of Devakī has now become the residence; nitarām—extensively; na—not; reje—became illuminated; bhojendra-gehe—within the limits of the house of Kaṁsa; agni-śikhā iva—like the flames of a fire; ruddhā—covered; sarasvatī—knowledge; jñāna-khale—in a person known as jñāna-khala, one who possesses knowledge but cannot distribute it; yathā—or just as; satī—so being.
TRANSLATION
Devakī then kept within herself the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the cause of all causes, the foundation of the entire cosmos, but because she was under arrest in the house of Kaṁsa, she was like the flames of a fire covered by the walls of a pot, or like a person who has knowledge but cannot distribute it to the world for the benefit of human society.
