Although I've made an all round study of the shastras, I do not find anything equal to You, Who are my master! The thing higher is thought to You Therefore flung far and is similar to the 8th tuste (it does not exist). Brahma, Shiva, Indra and Their hosts are reduced to ashes by the sparks of fire resembling sparking glowworms and issuing from the curved edge of Your right eye is filled with masses Which of wrath.
