The Birth of Mahiṣāsura and the Goddess’s Victory as Mahīṣamardinī
एवं सञ्चिन्त्य सा देवी महीषी सम्बभूव ह । सखीभिः सह विश्वेशि तीक्ष्णशृङ्गाग्रधारिणी ॥
evaṃ saṃcintya sā devī mahīṣī saṃbabhūva ha | sakhībhiḥ saha viśveśi tīkṣṇaśṛṅgāgradhāriṇī ||
देवी ने सोचा और भैंस बन गई। उसके सींग तेज थे। वो अपनी सहेलियों के साथ थी।
