Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 3 - Chapter 1 - Verse 37


Sanskrit:

इति सायन्तनीं सन्ध्यामसुरा: प्रमदायतीम् ।प्रलोभयन्तीं जगृहुर्मत्वा मूढधिय: स्त्रियम् ॥ ३७ ॥

ITRANS:

iti sāyantanīṁ sandhyāmasurāḥ pramadāyatīmpralobhayantīṁ jagṛhurmatvā mūḍha-dhiyaḥ striyam

Translation:

The asuras, clouded in their understanding, took the evening twilight to be a beautiful woman showing herself in her alluring form, and they seized her.

Purport:

The asuras are described here as mūḍha-dhiyaḥ, meaning that they are captivated by ignorance, just like the ass. The demons were captivated by the false, glaring beauty of this material form, and thus they embraced her.
