तृतीयं तनयं जातं स राजा शत्रुमर्दनम् ।
यदाह तेन सा सुभ्रूर्जहासातिचिरं पुनः ॥
tṛtīyaṃ tanayaṃ jātaṃ sa rājā śatrumardanam / yadāha tena sā subhrūr jahāsāticiraṃ punaḥ

The ‘enemy-crushing’ motif can be read inwardly: the true enemies are ignorance, ego, and craving. Madālasa’s laughter hints that outer victory is secondary to inner conquest.
