devyuvāca
evametad balī śumbho niśumbhaścātivīryavān /
kiṃ karomi pratijñā me yadanālocitā purā //

The goddess spoke:
So strong as this is Śumbha! and so exceedingly heroic is Nīsumbha! What can I do, since there stands my ill-considered promise of long ago? Go thou thyself; make known respectfully to the lord of the Asuras all this that I have said to thee, and let him do whatever is fitting.

Frederick Eden Pargiter 1888, The Mārkaṇḍeya Purāṇa
