ninye kṣayaṃ yathā vahnistṛṇadārumahācayam //
Thus Ambikā brought that great army of the Asuras to utter destruction in a moment, even as fire utterly consumes a huge pile of grass and timber. And the lion, with quivering mane, stalked on roaring aloud.[14] While he prowled[15] as it were for lives out of the bodies of the foes of the Immortals, the battle was fought there between those troops of the goddess and the Asuras, so that the gods in heaven sending down showers of flowers gratified[16] her.[17]
