42.9

daṃśaṃ maṇḍalināṃ muktvā pittalatvādathāparam |

prataptairhemalohādyairdahedāśūlmukena vā |

karoti bhasmasāt sadyo vahniḥ ki nāma na kṣaṇāt ||

Except for the bite of hooded or viperine snakes (maṇḍalin) because of their pitta-provoking nature,
one should quickly cauterize the other [bites] with heated gold, iron, or the like, or with a firebrand;
for what indeed does fire not reduce to ashes in an instant?
