The spear flaming most terribly, which Śumbha approaching hurled, that, gleaming like a mass of fire as it came along, was driven aside by a great fire-brand. The vault between the three worlds reverberated with Śumbha’s lion-like roaring, but the dreadful sound of the slaughter among his soldiers surpassed that, O king. The goddess split the arrows shot by Śumbha, and Śumbha the arrows that she discharged, each with her and his sharp arrows in hundreds and thousands. Caṇḍikā enraged thereat smote him with a dart. Wounded therewith he fell in a faint to the ground.
