Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: O King, having thus been praised by the Supreme Personality, who bears the mark of Śrīvatsa on His chest, Lord Śiva circumambulated Him. Then, after taking permission from Him, Lord Śiva returned to his abode, Kailāsa, along with his associates.

Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura remarks that when Lord Śiva was offering obeisances unto Lord Viṣṇu, Lord Viṣṇu arose and embraced him. Therefore the word śrīvatsāṅkena is used here. The mark of Śrīvatsa adorns the chest of Lord Viṣṇu, and therefore when Lord Viṣṇu embraced Lord Śiva while being circumambulated, the Śrīvatsa mark touched Lord Śiva’s bosom.

Translation
Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: O King! Honored by the Supreme Lord, who bears the mark of Śrīvatsa on his chest, Lord Śiva circumambulated him and after taking permission, he returned to his abode with his associates. When Śiva bowed down, the Lord raised him up and embraced him, touching him with his chest marked by the Śrīvatsa.
