hate tasmin mahāvīrye mahiṣasya camūpatau /
ājagāma gajārūḍhaścāmarastridaśārdanaḥ //

When he, Mahiṣa’s very valiant general, was slain, Cāmara, the afflicter of the thirty gods, advanced mounted on an elephant; and he also hurled his spear at the goddess. Down to the ground Ambikā quickly struck it, assailed with a contemptuous hoot and rendered lustre-less. Seeing his spear broken and fallen, Cāmara filled with rage flung a pike; and that she split with her arrows. Then the lion leaping up fastened on to the hollow of the elephant’s forehead, and fought in close combat aloft with that foe of the thirty gods; but both then fell, as they were fighting, from the elephant to the ground. They fought closely locked together with most terrible blows. Then quickly springing up to the sky, and descending, the lion severed Cāmara’s head with a blow from his paw.
