SB 10.89.12
sri-suka uvaca
evam bruvane vaikunthe
 bhrgus tan-mandraya gira
nirvrtas tarpitas tusnim
 bhakty-utkantho ’sru-locanah


Translation: 
Sukadeva Gosvami said: Bhrgu felt satisfied and delighted to hear the solemn words spoken by Lord Vaikuntha. Overwhelmed with devotional ecstasy, he remained silent, his eyes brimming with tears.

Purport: 
Bhrgu could not offer the Lord any words of praise because his throat was choking with tears of ecstasy. In the opinion of Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti, the sage should not be condemned for his offensive behavior, since his role in this transcendental pastime was arranged by the Personality of Godhead.
