भण्डासुरस्य मन्त्रणा
Bhaṇḍāsura’s War-Counsel against Lalitā
कृतप्रियाश्लेषमिव स्फुरन्तीष्वसियष्टिषु / गुप्तप्रविष्टमिव च श्यामासु वनपङ्क्तिषु
kṛtapriyāśleṣamiva sphurantīṣvasiyaṣṭiṣu / guptapraviṣṭamiva ca śyāmāsu vanapaṅktiṣu
As though the embrace of the beloved had been enacted upon the flashing sword-hilts; and as though one had slipped in secret into the dark, Shyāmā-hued ranks of the forest.
