Translation
Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: O King, after hearing this speech by her husband, the demigoddess [Umā, the wife of Lord Śiva] gave up her astonishment at the behavior of King Citraketu and became steady in intelligence.
Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)
Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: O King! After hearing this speech by her husband, Pārvatī gave up her astonishment at the behavior of King Citraketu and became peaceful in intelligence.
Śānta-dhīḥ (peaceful intelligence) indicates that, remembering her previous mood, she became ashamed and covered her face with her cloth.
Purport
Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura remarks that the word
śānta-dhīḥ
means
svīya-pūrva-svabhāva-smṛtyā.
When Pārvatī remembered her former behavior in cursing Citraketu, she became very much ashamed and covered her face with the skirt of her sari, admitting that she was wrong in cursing Citraketu.
