विषङ्गपलायनम् (Viṣaṅga-palāyanam) — Aftermath of the First Battle Day
अहो बत महत्कष्टं दैत्यैर्देव्याः समागतम् / उत्तानबुद्धिभिर्दूरमस्माभिश्चलितं पुरः
aho bata mahatkaṣṭaṃ daityairdevyāḥ samāgatam / uttānabuddhibhirdūramasmābhiścalitaṃ puraḥ
Alas, what a great calamity the Daityas have brought upon the Goddess! Through our shallow judgment, we have moved the fortress-city far away from the front.
