“O Elephant-Faced One,
when the troop of Rudras had fled, ran away; when the sun, Savitṛ, wavered; when the Wielder of the Thunderbolt, Indra, had his thunderbolt shattered; when fear arose in the moon; when the wind, Marut, ceased; when Kubera abandoned enmity; when Vaikuṇṭha, Viṣṇu, had his weapon blunted—may Bhavānī of abundant majesty, smiting without obstacle, in such a way that there was no impediment, Mahiṣa, who was exceedingly furious, relying only on masculine force, dependent on the refuge of manliness, dispel your misfortune.”

“Why are you dejected at the tusk broken by the Daitya with his arm
when his form was turned into a buffalo? I have set about today to give you double that ornament once more!”—
Having spoken thus at the celebration of his mother’s slaughter of Mahiṣa, may Guha protect you
as he places the two tusks of the enemy, gleaming white with a smile, onto the mouth of the Elephant-Faced One. || 67
